The committee comes to the Far
West alter nearmuo
land, the Southwest and the Mid-
Purpose of the trip Is des
cribed by Chairman Hope as two-
f0'"Wirst ha said, "we want to
...r directlv from farmers them
selves what they think about the
oresent and future of agriculture
in America their problems, their
hopes, uieu
ideas. We want to know how they
feel about our present farm pro
grams and to get from them
thoir own ideas and proposals for
Improvements in these programs
or solutions TO me Hittujr
of agriculture.
"Spmnd. we want to gjve all the
..ha nre to eet acquainted with
farmers in every part ot the na.
lion The committee deals with ag
riculture throughout the country
and it Is important that Congress
man from one part ot the country-
have the Rind 01 intimate mow
iim of aEriculture in other areas
tnat can come only from being in
those areas, talking individually
to farmers themselves and getting
out into the fields to see personally
tno conditions and prooiems 01 10
cai farming."
HoDe said he believes all persons
who have studied the problems
agree that agricultural prices must
be stabilized at levels that will at
ford farmers a fair share of the
national income, and that "the job
before us now is to adjust the
farm program to the changing
times with farmers themselves tak-
ine a larger part in the preparing
and running of this program in
the future."
He said he would like for farm
ers to give the committee thei.
answers to questions like these:
1. Is there a way to support
storable commodities at 90 per
cent of the parity price without
acreage allotments and marketing
quotas?
2. Would a flexible price support
program, ranging between 15 and
90 per cent of parity, adjust pro
duction and require less controls
over the operations of farmers I
Or do farmers prefer rigid sui
ports at 90 per cent even if a low
er level would mean less controls?
3. Or would producers of such
storable commodities as wheat and
cotton prefer to try a two-price
system that would avoid restriction
on production? Under such a sys
tem that part of the crop consumed
in this country would get support
prices based on parity and the ex
ported part would go at the low
er world prices.
4. Of the perishable farm com
modities, only dairy products now
are subject to mandate! y price
supports. In view of the difficulties
of stabilizing supplies of perish
able products such as fruits, vege
tables and animal producli, should
the government attempt any other
price stabilization program In this
field? How can the program for
the dairy industry be improved?
6. What are the cattlemen's ideas
for long - range stabilization of
prices for the livestock industry?
6. A large factor in the decline
of farm prices has been the falling
off of export of wheat, cotton, to
bacco and other products. Major
adjustments must be made in the
production of several Important
crops unless export marke'ts are
expanded. What changes, if any,
should be made in our foreign
Uadeorograms?
7. CBBgress is Intensely intei
ested in soil conservation and
flood prevention. The need for bet
ter integration of all soil and wa
ter conservation activities is gener
ally recognized. What is the best
approach to this problem? What
part should government payments
for conservation practices play'
Would government-Insured loans by
banks and otuer private lending
agencies, at reasonable Interest and
tunning up to 10 years, bpeed up
conservation work?
8. What do farmers think of fed
eral all-risk crop insurance, now
operating on an experimental ba
sis in about 1,000 counties? Are
they willing to pay for this insur
ance and do they want tills pro
gram expanded?
9. Do farmers have adequa'.e
sources of credit, on satisfactory
terms?
10. Should we encourage more
research to find new uses tor farm
products? How much would ex
panded marketing research help la
bringing about better pilces?
