The Circleville Herald, Monday March 19, 1979 11 OFB, Congressmen discuss issues Today is Beef Day By ANDI HUMPHRIES Herald News Writer While in Washington, D.C. last week, members of the Ohio Farm Bureau contacted elected officials, making them aware of the farm policies. A breakfast was held at the Russell Office Buiding with House of Representative members Tuesday. breakfast was with U.S. Senators John Glenn and Howard Metzenbaum on Capitol Hill.

At the Tuesday breakfast, general announcements informed congressmen of the farm marketing bill, the gasohol situation and the migrant labor laws. REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAM HARSHA Eleven farm bureau presidents met with Representative William Harsha (R-Ohio) of District Six Tuesday morning. Items discussed included transportation, centering on railroad cars, river transportation, county roads and bridges. Harsha informed the group of a new federal aid program for bridges. He said it will average $1 billion per year through the departments of transportation.

He feels the program, funded for the 1980 fiscal year, should benefit the county level more than at the township level. It is part of the Federal Highway Act of 1973. The reorganization proposal, which involves moving the Forest Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) as well as other areas, to a new Department of Natural Resources. The Ohio Farm Bureau opposes this move, as it will weaken the USDA.

The Congressman assured the group that the plan is not meant to dismantle the department of agriculture. The proposal would transfer this service, all functions of the Department of Interior, and the Program of the National Oceanographic Atmospheric Administration to natural resources. On the anti-trust issue, Representative Harsha was given a copy of a list of information needed to determine if a specific merger violated antitrust laws. There were 30 questions, some having separate parts, asking for lists of information. The representative agreed it is too much tape" and said he will get someone on the agricultural committee to respond.

He will also try to record it on the SENATOR HOWARD METZENBAUM Congfessional Record showing the length of the unnecessary items. He was asked by members of the group to follow the Delaney Clause situation. It forbids any use of additives found to induce cancer in man or animal. As it presently reads, scientists are able to determine quantities in parts per trillion. The farm bureau supports an amendment to the clause to provide a benefit-risk ratio of chemicals, drugs, food or feed additives, as well as research to determine these factors.

At the breakfast with the senators, Senator Glenn spoke on the importance of markets, and said they cannot be underestimated. He said SENATOR JOHN GLENN there is a unique opportunity to open up markets so farmers locally can produce as much as they are capable with the new trade relationships. Senator Metzenbaum admitted food costs are soaring, and farmers are having a hard time getting their share. He added the OFB has had impact on his decision, and recalls a situation two years ago which ended in a double amount of soybean production due to an impact bill he implemented. Tuesday evening, Senator Glenn presented Golden Tractor Awards to those presidents who achieved an increase in membership by 50 or more members in the past year.

Harriet Bigam, Five Points, a member of the Ohio Hereford Auxiliary, announced today is National Beef Day, noting that although beef prices have risen substantially during the past year, they are only now returning to levels comparable to the prices of other foods. The last price index report showed beef (including hamburger) still lagging behind the food index. far in 1979 we have had a larger and faster price increase than anyone expected. This is a result of widespread winter storms and cold weather which have disrupted marketing and temporarily limited numbers of fed cattle ready for market. There also have been some death losses in feedlots.

The greater than expected price rise now may result in more moderate increases later on. of the relatively rapid increase of recent weeks, beef prices are now perceived as being she said. realize that low beef prices which prevailed until recently came to be regarded as normal. While fish and pork prices were rising, beef prices remained low for an extended period. Now the problem is to adjust to smaller beef supplies and higher Mrs.

Bigam said. shoppers still can provide their families with the nutrition and eating enjoyment of beef. One thing they can do is to learn more about buying and preparing beef from the less expensive cuts, like pot roast, chuck steak, round steak, beef brisket, short ribs and ground beef. Another thing is to think in terms of cost per serving. Even when hamburger is $1.40 per pound, it costs only 35 cents per she said.
