Asks Cuts in Agriculture Department, Farm-Aid Funds for Year PAGE TWELVE CROP BENEFITS BUDGET SLASH RECOMMENDED Incomes, Prices Have Increased, President Says; Attention Given Parity Payments (Bt Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. Pointing to Improved farm pricee anil income, President Roosevelt recom mended today that direct appropria tion! for the agriculture department and farm-aid programs for the 194S fiscal year be cut $376,222,849, or 31 per cent from this year a figure.

His requests called for total direct appropriations of $811,223,924, aa compared with $1,187,446,773 voted by congress for the current year. REDUCTIONS EXPLAINED The principal reductions would be in benefit payments authorized un der crop-control programs and in funds for purchase of farm sur pluses for distribution among needy through the stamp and school lunch program and for movement abroad under export subsidy programa. Mr. Rooaevelt'a recommendations for benefit payment totaled 962,910, Including $450,000,000 for soil conaerratlon benefit and 910 for sugar grower benefit. Farm id appropriation for the current year totaled $759,350,910, Including $499,388,000 for aoll conservation benefit, $212,000,000 for parity pay znent and $47,962,910 for sugar benefit.

Thus, no request for parity payment wa made for the 194S fiscal year. The president asked, however, that the secretary of agriculture be granted authority to obligate the treasury for parity payment for the so-called baalo crops of cotton, eorn, wheat, rice, tobacco and pea nut should they become necessary to assure grower full parity return on the 1942 production of these com- modltie. Such payment would not be made, however, until the 1944 fiscal year. WOULD BE CUT The farm surplus purchase appropriation would be cut $90,879,589 from this year! figure of 589.

Has brouck as she began her third lecture series.

The group of lectures deals with marriage relations and will continue for six weeks each Wednesday morning. Commenting that she considered the bolstering of the family unit by the dissemination of proper knowledge concerning marital relations a vital defense work, she explained that the family unit la the measure of the success of any nation with successful marriage a matter of national Importance. Constant adjustment is required for successful marriage, and since the woman is better able to make adjustment than the man, the effort toward mutual understanding Is largely the woman's role. "I hope these lectures will help my listeners," says Mrs, Hasbrouck, "but I am more Interested In the Two by Sea CAD KITS IN, TI ARRESTED WA ALL BEEF RAISERS REQUESTED TO ADJUST Information Given by County' Producers on Procedure in Time of War Upon U.

The San Bernardino county de fense board, of the U.S. department of agriculture, met recently In San Bernardino, to review the pledges of meat, milk and egg producers with respect to an Increased need for these products since the outbreak of actual combat with Japan Word has been received here to day by Mra. Marjorie M. Hambly of San Bernardino, secretary of the County Agricultural Conservation association that the board ha re newed its plea to rancher engaged in th production of beef cattle to adjust their marketing plans to con form witli alaughter goal estab lished In th food-for-freedom pro gram. Extra alaughter of beef ani mals for 1942, aaid Arthur J.

Lea- vitt, chairman of th board, 1 both a service to the nation and 1 an act in beef producers' own economlo interests. Beef producer in San Bernardino county indicated on their farm defense plan that they intend to slaughter above 1941 an additional 1,893 head of beef and veal animals in 1942, stated Mra. Hambly, but Defense Board Chairman Leavitt wishes to remind them of these In tentions at this time of increased need. Leavitt explained that, unless cattlemen fully understand the fac tors Involved and plan their opera tion accordingly, there is danger that herds will continue to be in creased. Overstocking of the ranges may result in a repetition of forced marketings, which sent beef prices to record low levels in 1934.

CAUTION VOICED "The nation needs the extra slaughter of beef called for In the food-for-freedom goals for 1942 said Leavitt, "but it should be understood also that it Is quite possi ble to meet these goals on a tonnage basis and still defeat utterly the long-time objectives of the program, the most important of which is to level off beef animal number at about the present figure. The only way to accomplish this is to reduce the relative numbers of she stock, and this means that a heavy pro portion of the increased marketings in 1942 should consist of cows and heifers." Mrs. Hambly cited the following additional recommendations of Secretary of Agriculture Wickard to cattlemen: (1.) Pay off Indebtedness now while prices and demand are good, so as to avoid the danger of having to pay off big debts at low prices later. (2.) Improve breeding herds by culling out and selling undesirable animals while demand is good. (3.) Keep livestock numbers In balance with normal feed supplies.
