THE BINGHAMTON PRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1945. U. S. Buying Three to Face Court Tuesday The Farm Front Do Dairymen Have a Double Standard? Their Own Consumption of Products Could Be Considerably Greater Battle Against Subsidy Policy Is Opened by Farm Bureau, Grange Washington (P) Two major farm organizations are getting set for a possible battle over government farm price policies and subsidies. They are the American Farm Bureau Federation and By L.

ANDREW ROCKWELL synthetic vitamins. They used to condemn it as being made from cheap imported fats and oils, such as cocoanut oil from the South Seas. But the war cut off those imports, and oleo makers stress the claim that theirs is a product of American farms, made from soybean oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, etc. In the South last winter I saw people publicly eating uri-colored oleo in hotel dining rooms. Some of them would say: "Yes, this is oleo made from cotton.

We like it; it's very good." As I get it, Ed Babcock thinks dairy farmers ought to do as well by their own product, because if they really were enthused about its merits they could do a better job of convincing the other fellow.

N. T. Since 1901 Both have gone to work in an effort to head off suggestions that in the future government programs designed to support farm prices at st -called "equitable" levels be abandoned in favor of subsidies. A special committee of the Farm Bureau, headed by President Ed ward A. O'Neal, has arranged to discuss the matter with Secretary of Agriculture Anderson Sept.

24. Want Just Market Price Both the Farm Bureau and the Grange favor programs designed to assure farmers a "just" price at the market place. Both oppose the idea of permitting farm prices to fall below the 90 per cent parity level at which the government is committed to support most farm commodities for two years after the war has been declared officially at an end. I he suggestion that prices be al lowed to sef their own level during this post-war price suDDort level and that the government make up the difference between the mar ket price and 90 per cent in subsidies to farmers was made by James F. Byrnes when he was di rector of the Office of War Mobili zation and Reconversion, and later by Fred M.

Vinson whn he held the same post. Anderson Policy Unknown Mr. Anderson has not indicated publicly what his price policies will be. Officials of the Grange, headed by National Master Albert S. Goss, took the matter to President Truman yesterday.

They said they told the President their organiza tion would resist the Byrnes-Vin-son suggestion, which has been tagged by some farm leaders as a cheap food" program. This suggested plan would tend to provide lower food prices for consumers than would one which held farm prices near the so-called "parity" or "equitable" price level. Mr. Cioss said Mr. Truman gave very sympathetic consideration" to the Grange viewpoint.

Sweet Potato Crop Gains Over 1914 Gannett National Service Washington Yield prospects of sweet potatoes increased in New Jersey during August, the crop reporting board of the U. S. Department of Agriculture stated in Its latest report, released today. Continuous rains during July played the greatest part in stimu lating rapid vine growth, the report pointed out.

However, the same wet weather prevented adequate cultivation in many New Jersey localities, it was said. For the nation as a whole, a prospective sweet potato crop of 68,210,000 bushels is indicated, the board stated. This is almost bushels more than was estimated on Aug. 1, but much lower than 1944 production of bushels. The crop now in prospect is 2 per cent above the 10-year (1934-45) average production although the 1945 acreage is 11 per cent smaller than average.

Above-acre yields are predicted for all states except Florida. Vestal Center Vestal Center The first fall meeting of the Vestal Center A. will be held in the school Friday night. Mr. and Mrs.

rationing of butter and cream, and cheese has been unobtainable Now many spokesmen for the dairy industry express concern whether producers will continue to be able to market all the milk they can produce at profitable prices. All of them agree that consumption of dairy products never has been high enough, considering their nutritional merits and their prices when compared with other foods. The consuming public may not appreciate this, so it is proposed that the dairy industry promote consumption through advertising and research. of this is good, and there is ample proof that the same means have increased sales and developed new markets for many other commodities. Milk should be a "natural" to promote.

But "Ed" Babcock, writing in the American Agriculturist, has been pointing out one thing wrong with this picture. He says bluntly, "with a good chance that I may be misunderstood," that the men who feed and milk cows do not themselves consume enough of the product which they think other folks should buy. MR. BABCOCK says: "Most dairy families have cheerfully accepted oleo in place of but ter and have given up the use of cream and cheese entirely. This reminds me of attending a farm meeting where a speaker fcith fire in his eye and a dramatic wave of the hand declared: "Any farmer who uses oleo ought to be ashamed to look a cow in the face." In an aside a listener told me that most of the farmers in the community used oleo.

I am aware that there are arguments- on both sides of the ues tion, but the point that Mr. Bab cock questions the sincerity of farmers who publicly damn oleo and yet use it to the exclusion of their own product which they think consumers ought to buy at higher prices. Ed opines that he would have a little more sym pathy with the dairy farm folks if they would bl more consistent in doing themselves what they preach to others. I got an inkling of what Ed was driving at the- other day in con versation with two well known farmers. One of them told me he followed the more or less accepted formula of providing a quart of fresh milk every day for each person on the farm, includ ing the families of the hired men I asked the other farmer what he thought of that and he agreed "it was about right.

After ponder ing on it a moment, he admitted that he was providing his families with less than half that amount OF COURSE, the products of the farm which the owner provides for the families of his workers have a value. This value should be considered in arranging terms of employment but apparently Mr. Babcock thinks it inconsistent to urge city folks to drink a quart of milk a day and not set as good an example on the farm. He says a survey indicates oleo sales in dairy 'communities are running very high. One country merchant told him that it would take the production of 100 dairy cows daily to rephce with butter the oleo he now is selling to dairymen.

Babcock made a check on this statement and found that many of the oleo-buying dairymen had signed up to support a campaign to increase sales of dairy products. He would like to know why they do not start at home and campaign in their own community. To be consistent, he thinks dairymen who profess to believe in the good qualities of dairy products for human consumption should be able to say with a clear conscience: "I use dairy products freely on my own table." TIE fact is that the war-time shortages of butter have "given oleo a tremendous boost. In the past many dairymen have tried to laugh it off and to speak of it with contempt. They have sought to place restrictions on oleo sales through taxing and licensing.

The oleo industry has been accused of trying to. sell oleo in imitation of butter, with the implied claim that it was just as good as butter but cheaper. Before the war many housewives would not think of buying oleo. When they could not obtain butter they switched reluctantly to the substitute. The obvious favorable reaction to oleo has many in the butter industry worried.

DEER HEATING CO. 26 Seminary Dial 4-5756 Easing Farm Prices Likely Ithaca Farm prices are likely to ease in relation to wages and other costs, the director of the State Extension Service at Cornell University says. In a report to farmers yesterday, L.

R. Simons said the easing of farm prices probably would be noticed after the period of large-scale food shipments to Europe was over and other types of consumer goods were available in abundant supply. To prepare for price easing, Mr. Simons said, farmers should begin to shift emphasis from all-out volume production to efficient low-cost production and marketing. He urged that farmers use "caution and judgment" in purchasing land, livestock and equipment because "the danger of inflation will be greater during the next year or two than -it was during the war."
