Big Drop In Farm Income Didn't Come About In '60 By BERNARD BRENNER ' WASHINGTON (UPK-The na lion's farmers fn low smashed all previous production records, and surpluses of wheal ana corn piled higher and higher in gov ernment bins. For consumers, the rising vol urn of farm production and a slight drop in average larm prices helped offset some of the effect of Another round of small increases In food marketing costs. Agriculture Department reports showed retail food prices from July through September wore up about I per cent over the same period in 1959. Experts who had predicted farm Income would tumble again in '60. following a 15 per cent drop in 1959, were fooled. Parm prices for the first nine months of 1960 were I per cent below 1959, and the gap was narrowing in the final months of the year. Net farm income for 1960 was expected to be eqiinl to or slightly above the fll.S billion of 1959. with little change forecast for 1961. Net farm income In 1953. first of (he Eisenhower administration years, was $13.9 billion.

(AP)-Thls tinv Quebec village was both sad and angry today about the fire that killed Mrs. Abel Vosburgh and 11 of her IS children. A brother of the dead woman said the family lived in the wood shack built by the father "because no one would rent him a house with all those children." "Everyone has lost someone," said Die Rev, William Sellwood as he went around this vilUge ot 500 near the Vermont border spread ing the news of Thursday s early morning tragedy. In a closely knit community like this, there are very few folk who are not related," he ex plained. Pushing out of the ashes of the one-story shack were the frames of the four beds in which the vic tims were trapped. Six bodies were found in one bed, vosburgh was the only survivor of the tin that killed his U year old wife and 11 children 6 months to 19 years old. Two of their other children are married and the oth er two were aay. ' CAT GETS CHARGED CLEVELAND. Tenn. (AP - (Mrs. V. L. Stark reported hear ini a funnv noise under th hmvt of their new car.

The big crops in lOfiO, harvest' ed from a steadily shrinking nunv ber of farms, again boosted the government's investment In ur- pluses piled up under price sup- port programs. In mid-summer the Agriculture Department owned or had made loans on 18.8 billion worth of crops that nobody else wanted to buy at the moment. By next summer, tills total is expected to be somewhere between $9.S-$10 billion, largely because of a steady increase In surpluses of wheat and corn. .. . . Cotton surpluses, which have been dropping since 1056, shrank 1 ' again in 1960. By next summer, the cotton carry-over will be down Mow 7 million bales 4ess than half the amount on hand in 1956. But the wheat stockpile by next summer will be up to 15 billion bushels, more than enough to meet all domestic and export demand for a year even if farm era destroyed the entire 1961 crop. The corn suplus, boosted by an all-time record harvest of nearly 4.4 billion bushels in 10, will be up in '61 to about 1 billion bush els. Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson, winding up eight years in one of the cabinet's hottest seats, tried again in 1960 to per suade the Democratic Congress to solve the wheat surplus problem his way by granting authority for lower support prices and re laxing or eliminating federal pro duction controls. But Democrats who favor higher supports and tighter controls rejected Benson's proposals again. The result was another deadlock and no action. Sources close to President-elect lohn F. Kennedy have indicated that one of his early moves in 1961 will be aimed at getting new legislation to curb the wheat surplus. Kennedy was elected on a platform pledging the new ad ministration to boost farm in come and to favor cutbacks in production when farmers them selves are willing to accept stiffer controls. , With Congress and the Eisen hower administration in complete disagreement on most farm is suesand with many city law makers unwilling , to back new farm legislation Congress in i960 produced few major new farm laws. Among the more Important new bills were measures stabil izing tobacco s u p p o r t prices which had been climbing under an old law, and raising dary sup port prices lor the period end ing next March 31. A bill tem porarily extending the federal sugar control program and au thorizing a ban on imports from Cuba was approved last summer. but action on a long-range exten sion of the Sugar Act was de layed until 1961.

In 1060 the old Britain perhaps had tlie richest year of her world trading history. In 1961, accord ing to Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. the new Britain will be imperiled unless she can ex pand her trade 'far beyond the . i i- currem level. In 1960 a commoner, Antony Armstrong-Jones married royal ly, Princess Margaret. In 1961 the new Britain, if Tony has his re ported way, will have a "work ing" member of the royal fam ily. In I960 the old Britain wit nessed the disappearance of hun dreds of fish-and-chips shops. In 1981, according to government 'es- timates, the number of neon-lit, chromium-plated hamburger bars in Britain will double into the thousands. In 1960 the old Britain gave her militant trade unions a con tinued wave of pay-raise agree ments.
