I am disappointed and shocked that there is no sign of tightening the conserving base program to prevent a vast overproduction. or to correct the inequities in that program between the States. The Departments failure to institute reforms which would make the setaside scheme considerably more certain to control production is pretty conclusive proof that this Congress made a serious mistake in accepting any compromise with the administration farm policy. Members of this Congress who represent the rural areas which are already in trouble. and the urban areas where a new wave of migrants may be expected. can well spend their merry Christmashappy New Year season this year considering just how long we can continue to let this type of farm policy bankrupt farmers. weaken the whole national economy. and add flames to the recession fires which could easily become another farmled. farmfed depression.
