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. He has
been serving aboard the USS
Princeton at North Island Naval
Air station, San Diego. He is a

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.
