Grangers Hear
Incentive Praised
Spokane U.R) It is wiser
and usually more successful to
implement economic adjustment
by the "incentive method rather
than the punishment method,
Dr. John Davis, former assist
ant agriculture secretary under
Ezra Benson, said today.
Davis, now director of the
Moffett program in agriculture
and business at Harvard, told
the 88th annual National Grange
convention the federal price sup
port program for farm products
had been "infinitely cheaper than
to have permitted surpluses to
demoralize both domestic and
world markets.' r
Had the full U. S. agricultural
production been allowed to en
ter world markets, he said,
world recovery after World War
II would have been retarded.
"But the philosophy that the
entire agriculture economy must
be depressed economically as a
means of forcing adjustment is
unsound," he said.
