Mar IS. 1137 Benson Begins Fight To Convince Farmers Of Lower Supports Washington U.R) Agri culture Secretary Ezra T. Ben has begun a politically-perilous battle to- convince American farmers they can make more money with lower government price supports, Benson's campaign also is aimed at taxpayers who have been fretting at heavy federal spending. -v Benson, a center of contro versy since he took office in 1953, is proposing a reduction in the 75 per cent of "fair price" parity floor maintained by law under such major crops as cot ton, corn and wheat. Could Set Prices In addition and perhaps this is more important Benson wants Congress to eliminate the "flexible" price support formula which forcer prices of major crops up toward a 90 per cent of parity ceiling when supplies are reduced. Repeal of the formula would allow Benson to set. farm prices at any - point within a range fixed by Con gress he considered practical. Mrs. E. C. Chester, 1010 South Third St., Jacksonville.

ROGUE VALLEY NAVY MOTHERS CLUB No. At : - Til m MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVEN Political reaction to Benson's new move has been cool. ; "I do not know what course 1 we : will follow," Chairman Al-1 len J. Ellender (D-La.) of the ! Senate Agriculture Committee ' said, "but I feel sure it will ! not involve vesting any . indi- j vidual with dictatorial powers ' over agriculture prices. We do not' need nor can our farmers afford a program which would put our farmers' income at the mercy of an agricultural czar." j From a Republican farm ex- i pert close to the GOP National j Committee, which views the j farm belt as the major battle ground in the 1958 congressional elections, came the comment: "We'll be all right if nothing comes of it, and I don't think anything will." Benson is fully aware of the i political barriers in his path, but he has told newsmen he has the "wholehearted support" of President Eisenhower who stood, with him in his earlier and successful farm policy bat tles. The agriculture Secretary open ed his campaign with a 2,000 word letter and a 3,000-word explanatory statement to Ellen der on May 2. In these docu ments, Benson made his- pro posals for farm law changes indirectly and by implication. Details Deliberately Avoided Benson deliberately avoided spelling out a detailed new farm program. Instead, he point ed the course he favors by de tailing the failings of current programs. Essentially, the May 2 state ments and B e n s o n's later speeches maintain that farmers can sell more if prices are re duced in ' some cases . and not pushed above current levels in others. One of Benson's close ad visers admitted today this policy is a calculated risk. "The long run effect will be to boost farm income over what it would otherwise be. But in the short run, we Just don't know whether it would send.j farm income up or down," he said.
