i MEOFOBD MAIL TRIBUHE, MEDFORD. OREGOM WEDNESDAY, JULY 3. t A ? Farm Bureau President WantsFreeman To Remains Washington -8IPB- As presi dent of the Farm Bureau, Charles B. Shuman has had many a clash with Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman. But Shuman has no desire to see Freeman bounced from his cabinet job. In fact, Shuman wants Freeman to remain the Ad ministration's farm boss. "We like Freeman," Shu man said, speaking for the Farm Bureau at a luncheon with reporters. "We hope F reman is not replaced. He is a good man. We are more anxr ious for the Kennedy Admin istration to change directions than to change secretaries. "We know Freeman. We don't know who would re place him, or what the re placement would be like. We doubt that Freeman is a po litical liability." Shuman expressed himself on Freeman and other farm subjects after testifying be fore a House subcommittee on the Farm Bureau's proposals for wheat and feed grain legis lation. He gave his appraisal of Freeman when asked if the secretary's current visit to Russia is an indication that he is on the way out of the ad ministration. "I have no objection to Freeman traveling in Europe," Shuman said. "After all, for mer Secretary Ezra Taft Ben son went to Europe, took half his family, and many of his friends."

He has op posed many of the big farm policy actions of the Kenne dy Administration. "We've the Farm Bureau)1 done better under 23 years of the Kennedy Administra tion in checking socialism in agriculture than we did under : eight years of Eisenhower,'! Shuman said, "The Kennedy Administration presented us with a challenge-supply man-; agement. We have checked it. The Eisenhower Administra tion did not offer us a chal lenge." Shuman believes the Farm Bureau's success in turning back the Administration's wheat program for 1964 in a grower referendum May 21 was a turning point in agriculture. 'It was a turning point from more and more controls. more and more socialism, and toward laisser faire - let the farmer do things for himself," Shuman said. He is convinced there will be some wheat and feed grain legislation this session despite reluctance of Administration leaders to plug for it in the wake of the referendum de feat. Shuman said he was not prepared to predict that there was a 50-50 chance for farm legislation, a 40-60 chance, or 30-70 chance. He said the Administration undoubted I y is opposed to one section of existing wheat legislation -the provision requiring anoth er referendum next year based on the same premise as this year's baitating. He said the Administration does not want a referendum next year. 'because I believe the results would be worse than the one in May." But even if there is no legislation, Shuman said, ; he does not foresee "chaos" m ! American agriculture. Wheat Forecast Shuman said he doesn't be lieve there will be much, if any, more wheat planted this fall than last. He said that with the low price support for wheat - SI .25 per bushel -farmers will see that it's more profitable to grow soybeans, perhaps even more feed grains. Shuman said the American farmer should not be tempted by high price supports to grow more than can be sold ! in the market place. He said price support on any comma. I dity should be sufficiently low ! so that the market price of ; that commodity would not get : down fo the support price. 1 Shuman said he didn't ; know much about the John ; Birch group, "except that 11 has become a nasty name." He was asked what he thought of farm knowledge of GOP presidential hopefuls, lie said that a member of Con gress would have an excellent opportunity to become ac quainted with farm policy. He : added that Sen. Barry Gold- water (R-Arjz.) had an oppor- tunitv to be "excellently in formed." Groin 3 SMALLER JEWELED NOVELTIES AND DECORATIONS A.
