FRIDAY, JULY 8, If 4 PACE TWELVE HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. ORECON Administration Already Has Power To Start Farm 'ProductionPayment'Plan WASHINGTON. July t Wr-The kouae "as told by iu afrirulture eonmlltra today that Um adminis tration already hu power to (tart the farm -prodiirllon paTmrnt- plan It U uklnf eontress ta approve. Tha eommlltre eeld tha farm art paaerd by the republican Mth eon (rrae wai aa srrlllen that It left the eecrrtary of arrleullure "fancy free" ta f a ahead with tha Idea. In a formal report, tha committee tinted that the house past a substi tute for the republican-enacted law The substitute la the so-called Pace bill, sponsored by Representative Pace (D-Oa.). The Pace bill would let the admin istration try out the "production payment" plan in 1S50, but would limit tha trial to three crops. The secretary of agriculture would be free to decide which three. The measure carries snore restric tions than does a compromise farm protram brine developed by the sen ate agriculture committee. Senator Elmer Thomas ID-Oala.) aaid be experts eventual senate paasace of the compromise. And Secretary of Agriculture Brannan, farm cabinet member for President Truman, told senators late yesterday that he would to alone with the compromise aa "a step In the direction" of hi own new pro gram. Brannan made clear the adminis tration la not (trine up on his prop-am which, boiled down, la to give farmers high returns and consum ers cheaper foods. (The method vculd be the use of subsidies to farmers, to be paid out of tax funds.) rannan told reporters that the compromise Is better than no action by congress this year, and that he is willing to leave tha broad Issue to tht voters In 1960. Oddly enough, the new compro mise appear ta be baaed principally pen the long-range farm program pssard by the last GOF-rontrolled congress. That waa a frequent tar get for both Rrannan and President Truman In their successful midwest farm belt campaigns last year. Brannan agreed that If the Aiken bill provisions are advanced to be come effective immediately Instead of waiting until the end of this year he would go along. He also accepted a republican sug gestion by Senator Thye of Minne sota that the commodity credit cor porationwhich has authority to spend S4.750.000.000 to support farm F tiers and Income could be used to carry out the program. Thomas bluntly told Brannan early at the hearing there was no chance for congressional approval of Brannan a request to approve a "trial run" of the Brannan plan on rugs alone this year. Brannan had proposed that exist ing government prlea supports through loans and purchases be aug mented by "production payments." I nder this system market prices might drop to benefit consumers, nth the government making up any lost Income to farmers through "pra dutclon payment" subsidies. Thomas, Anderson. Aiken and T.ye suggested that Instead of Unt iling the "trial run" to hogs that tha lui be broadened to cover 10 major f.irm products. The list of products under which Brannan would be directed to sup port prices and Incomes would In clude cattle and calves, dairy prod-u-ts. hogs, poultry, eggs, wheat, cotton lint, tobacco, and sheep and lambs. They now account for about three quarters of all farm Income. Brannan also would hare author ity to aupport prices of a long list af other farm commodities such aa frulu, nuts and potatoes If he de cided this necessary ar wise.
