LEESON SONS CO. DiSalle, OPS Aides Going All-Out To Convince Farmers WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 (INS) Michael DiSalle and his price stabilization aides are going all out to convince the farmer that his prosperity depends on how successfully the price program works. They say that price stablization protects profitable markets for farm products. They tell their side of the story in more than a quarter-million copies of a pamphlet on farmers and stablization.

The pamphlet predicts that controls will help farmers in the year ahead and urges farmers to protect the value of their dollars and their markets by helping to make the controls law work. 'The price control booklet points out that the program aims to stabIlize the agricultural economy, assure the farmer a fair share of the national income and enable him and his family to know the benefits and comforts of modern living. How does the OPS say this can be done? OPS says it protects the value of a farmer's earnings and savings because inflation would make money less valuable. They say many farm families have been able to set aside savings in recent, years and that this money provide security in later years if its buying power can be protected. Price officials also declare that inflation endangers farmers more than others because when the inflationary boom busts the prices of farm products drop earlier, faster and further than most other products.

In the long run, they say. The farmer's market depends on how much buying power the public has. If inflation undermines this buying power, then farmers will sell less and earn less, they say.
