policies" of (he past, according to
Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T.
Benson.
Speaking at a dinner meeting of
the 38th annual convention of the
National Association of County
Agricultural Agents last night, Ben
son said:
"We face serious challenges to
day excess stocks of some com
modities, loss of export markets,
a severe farm price squeeze. These
farm policies and programs did
not prevent them.
"We see today the results of
these unrealistic postponements of
agricultural readjustment. We are
stilt producing at near-record lev
els, but demand has fallen off, es
pecially foreign demand for Amer
ican wheat and cotton at present
price support levels."
The previous administration,
Benson said, used the 'excuse" of
emergency situations during the
years since World War II to delay
the farmers' transition from war
to peace.
