Farm Prices
Drop 1 Point
AUSTIN, May 10—UP—The mid-
April index of prices received by
Texas farmers dropped one point
from mid-March, and was down
nine points from the same month
last year, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture reported Saturday.
The decline resulted from a
three point drop in the all-crops
index which more than offset a one-
point gain in the livestock and
livestock products index, the USDA
said.
Decreases were noted for food
grains, potatoes and sweet potatoes
and commercial vegetables. Prices
of most truck crops were down ex-
cept for carrots and onions, both
of which showed slight gains.
Hay prices increased $1.10 per
ton, while alfalfa at $30.50 per ton
advanced 50-cents during the
month.

By PATRICIA WIGGINS
WASHINGTON, May 10 —UP-
Congress faces the big problem in
writing farm legislation this year
of protecting farm income while
trimming production and unloading
government-held surpluses.
The problem, with its possible
wide influence on the coming con-
gressional elections, is an out-
growth of declining farm prices
without a matching drop in costs.
It is further complicated by more
than $6.5 billion worth of surplus
farm crops held by the government
under mandatory farm price sup-
port operations.
Most government officials agree
that a main cause for the price
drop is production which was ex-
panded to meet World War II
needs and has not adjusted to a
postwar let down in domestic and
foreign demand. This condition has
been aggravated by science’s con-
tributions to farm efficiency and
reduced home consumption of some
types of foods.
Farm Exports Drop
During World War II and the im-
mediate post-war years, a hungry
and war-torn world readily ab-
sorbed U.S. farm products. Strong
demand sent prices up and made
government price props unneces-
sary. This demand encouraged in-
creased production all over the
world and eventually resulted in
the disappearance of the seller’s
market. Last year alone farm ex-
ports fell 32 per cent.
Although farm prices have drop-
ped, costs generally remain high

CREDIT SIDE
Social security — Congress is ex-
pected to approve the President’s
recommendations for liberalizing
the social security program
Foreign aid — Approval expect-
ed for continuation of foreign aid
although on a more modest scale
than proposed.
St. Lawrence seaway — A big
triumph for the President in get-
ting approval of the $105 million
St. Lawrence seaway project. Re-
publican and Democratic presi-
dents for 30 years have been trying
to push the measure through Con-
gress.
Taxes — Mr. Eisenhower stands
a good chance of getting substan-
tially what he asked for in the way
of tax law changes. Republicans
believe they have the votes to de-
feat a plan sponsored by Senate
Democrats to increase personal in-
come tax exemptions. Mr. Eisen-
hower’s tax relief program puts the
emphasis on reductions for busi-
ness to spur expansion and for cer-
tain groups of individuals.
Housing — He is expected to get
substantially what he wants in the
way of new housing legislation.
However, Congress probably will
write into the new law safeguards
against any further “windfall”
profits to builders in the operation
of the Federal Housing Administra-
tion’s mortgage insurance ■ pro-
gram".

because of continued high business
activity and comparatively high in-
dustrial employment during this
period of cold war.
Meanwhile demand dropped and
so did prices. But the government
price props remained high and
farmers began putting their prod-
ucts under government price sup-
port loans rather than sell in the
open market for less.
Thus the cycle of too much pro-
duction and bulging surpluses con-
tinued.
Described as Blessing
Many argue that these supplies
are a blessing against future emer-
gencies. But it is generally con-
ceded that the mere existence of
these record high stocks is helping
to keep farm prices down.
Generallv there are two views as
to how the problem should be
solved.
The administration wants a
change in support program — a
change to flexible price guarantees
rather than continuation of present
rigid props. Unless extended the
rigid supports will expire this year.
Proponents of flexible price sup-
ports argue that low supports when
surpluses threaten and high sup-
ports when big output is needed
will encourage farmers to make
voluntary adjustments in line with
demand. They also say the pro-
gram means less government con-
trol on farmers.
The other view comes from those
who favor extension of present rig-
id supports coupled with federal
acreage controls.
The group argues that flexible
supports would penalize farmers in
the form of lower government sup-
port prices at a time when help is
most needed. They also say that
with farmers walking an economic
tight rope it is no time to tinker
with the price support program.

WASHINGTON, May 10 —UP—
President Eisenhower’s legislative
proposals to Congress are not all
doing so well.
Senate scuttling of revisions of
the Taft - Hartley labor law Fri-
day was widely considered a ma-
jor setback. •
Other principal presidential pro-
posals appear destined for the leg-
islative wastebasket.
However, the President is expect-
ed to fare better in the two to
three months remaining in the cur-
rent session of the 83rd Congress.
A look at the legislative score-
card shows these markers on what
may arbitrarily be called the credit
and debit side:
DEBIT
Farm — Mr. Eisenhower is in
trouble with his proposals for a
flexible price support program for
farm products. The outcome is un-
certain. A large bloc of legislators,
possibly a majority, wants to con-
tinue present law calling for 90 per
cent of parity supports. If Congress
does not enact a new farm law,
Mr. Eisenhower will get substan-
tially what he wants since the 1949
law calling for flexible supports—
which never went into effect—then
would become effective.
Statehood — Statehood for Ha-
waii appears dead. The Senate at-
tached statehood for Alaska to the
administration measure. Speaker
Joseph W. Martin Jr. has made it
clear several times that the House
will not vote on the Alaska state-
hood bill even at the cost of killing
Hawaiian statehood.
Reciprocal trade — Current re-
ciprocal trade law expires June 12.
The President asked Congress to
extend the program for three years
with new provisions for tariff cuts
of uo to 5 per cent a year on com-
modities that already have been
reduced the maximum now per-
mitted under the law. Mr. Eisen-
hower is given no chance whatever
of getting this program approved.
The best he can get, according to
his Capitol Hill advisers, is an ex-
tension of the present law for one
year.
Postal rate increase bill — Pas-
sage in doubt.
Federal health reinsurance plan
—Also in doubt.
18-year-old vote — Mr. Eisenhow-
er is given no chance of getting
congressional approval for lowering
the voting age from 21 to 18 by
constitutional amendment. The Sen-
ate takes up the House-passed
measure next week.
