I have been much encouraged by thi support L am getting from the people for my proposal to establish a Commission on Federal and State Jurisdiction. The purpose of this Commission is to study the boundaries between fed eral power and state power, and the boundaries between the three branches of the federal government, as they have -been established by the Constitution. Other committees and commis- siohs/have studied this question frpm the standpoint of administra tive efficiency and economy. I am glad to say- that they have found evidence to indicate that some pow ers now exercised by the federal government could b e exercised more efficiently on the state level. I am interested' in efficiency, but I am also interested in freedom. We cannot depart from the Const!-' tution without putting our freedoms in grave jeopardy. Therefore, the Commission I am proposing would use the Constitu tion hot—short-term expediency, as its guide. A Contest of Spending An exhibit imthe National Muse um of Natural History; in Wash ington. illustrates a custom once practiced by one of our North American Indian tribes called the “potlatch '' ' * This was a kind of party at which the host would give away most^of his possessions to his guests. These Indians used^sueh parties as a sub stitute for war. The chief who out- !.ave his, rivals gained great re spect, while such rivals became paupers. It was considered much better to have a few bankrupt chiefs than a lot of dead^Indians h 1 could be sure that our to outspend the Russians in foreign aid would result in no more serious consequences than the bank ruptcy of a few chiefs. But foreign aid has not elinjiinated the possibil ity of war. and the burden of spend ing weighs on every citizen of the United States Agricultural Problems A major agricultural problem af fecting South Carolina farmers has been raised on Capitol Hill. The new farm plan embodied in President Eisenhower's message on agriculture indicates that crop sup port prices may be reduced to 60 per cent of parity. This is not good news to the small farmer; in fact, JtJSere is a strong suggestion that the small farmer will be encouraged to put all of his land in the conserva tion reserve and go out of business. Congress is.in a mood to develop its own farm program, and this will be, in the long run, the best thing for the whole country. The small family farm is one of the bulwarks of our Democracy. —In Washington THIS WEEK I WUil efforts t IF YOU DON'T READ THE CHRONICLE YOU DON'T GET THE NEWS Phone 74 With the farm debate getting into full swing in Congress this week the same old problem—too much production—but with a new twist is emerging as the big issue. Congressmen from farming areas will talk abodt it in the cloak, rooms, and off the record, but the subject is taboo when it comes to open de bate on the floor of either the House or Senate. •X: • — Are there too may farmers? Agri culture Secretary Benson says, openly, that there are. The Ameri can Farm Bureau federation, larg est of the farm organizations, agrees with him. Price supports, surplus disposal and other farm programs are cost ing the government in excess of $5 billion a year. The main objective of those programs has been (1) to keep farm prices from falling and (2) reduce farm production. They have done neither. The Census Bureau counts 4,500,- 000 farms, and the USDA figures that 2.500 000 of those can produce all of the foods and fibers needed to fix'd and clothe this country well and have enough left over to meet all export requirements. The problem of how to do that is not a simple one. It involves getting both farmers aid farms out of pro duction. USDA studies show that the 2,000,000 “excess” farms make up only 6% of total land in culti vation and onlj^SUf pf total farm production. That S'Tis just about the amount by which production has been ex ceeding, sales" in domestic and for eign markets But that still leaves unsolved the problem of how to re duce the number of farmers and farms by 40^ . , Mr Benson says he does not favor “forced migration” off of farms. He says present support and subsidy programs are Encouraging too many farmers to stay on the land when they ought to be seeking employ ment elsewhere. He thinks that if those supports and subsidies were reduced or eliminated many would leave farms "voluntarily. With more than 4,000,000 un employed city workers, the job of farmers finding work in factories, mines and other industries might not be an easy one. More probably, they would, simply swell the unem ployment relief rol^s. Busines sand professional men in small towns, who depend largely upon farmers for their income, would be hard hit by any mass mi gration of their customers to cities. The result could be a gigantic wave of bankruptcies across the country. The main stumbling block to improving the farm price and over production problems is how to keep the 2,000,000 farms which Benson thinks should be removed from production from being absorbed by larger farmers and made even more productive. Benson thinks a “super-soil bank” to pay farmers to leave their whole farm idle may be the solution. He is giving the ijlea a trial run this month in four states—Illinois, Ne braska, Maine, and Tennessee—and if it looks promising he says he may ask all farmers to make the government an offer to take their farms out of production. Flashes From Afield Caught from Recent Reports of Ex tension County Farm Agents. Calhoun, O. W. Cam—AVe are try ing to hold on to all our cotton seed that are up to standards for planting seed. I am advising all farmers to have their seed tested for germina tion. If the seed are sub-standard, 1 am advising farmers to sell and make early arrangements for good planting seed Chesterfield, J. C. Willis — The Chesterfield County Poultry Produc ers Association which was organized early this year is now marketing 2,- 500 worth of eggs weekly. The asso ciation’s income continues to grow* week by week as more pullets come into production. This is one phase of the Rural Development program' that is really putting money into the pockets of Chesterfield county farm ers. Horry, V. M. Johnston—There is an unusual amount of interest in tobacco varieties at this tipie, es pecially in the black shank resistant and wilt resistant varieties being put on the market for the first time by Coker Pedigreed Seed Company. The demand for the seed of these varieties will farexceed the supply. Lancaster, F. W. Cannon — Ten additional dibbles have been made by a local shop to be used by farm ers in the tree planting program. We have- ordered 1,316,000 pine seedlings for 95 farmers. Arrange ments have been made with the nursery for a county truck to ‘pick up the seedlingsr and we notify farm ers to come for them at the fair grounds. This gives us a chance to demonstrate the use of *the dibble, how to heel in the trees, and how to space them properly when they are set , . . Laurens, C. B. Cannon—Aromatic tobacco grown this year by Harold Taylor, of Laurens, Rt. 1, who grew 2 acres, produced an average yield of 5444 pounds per acre. T7ie av erage profit per acre was $279.66. It cost $295.65 per acre to produce the tobacco.’ Mr. Taylor has been growjng aromatic tobacco for the past seven years at a profit each year, although he is employed in in dustry. f Lee, V. F. Linder—A trend in cot ton ginning gol underway in this county this fall when one or two gins installed double tint cleaners. Gins not following this practice found business rough. Hie addition of these cleaners resulted in an ad ditional $10 to $20 per bale for the farmer. This increase has been im portant in a year when grade and quality declined rapidly because of adverse weather during harvest sea son. Orangeburg, J. C. King—The pig parlor “concrete feeding” method of feeding hogs is gaining rapidly in Orangeburg county. There are more than 20 farmers who are using one or more units of *pig parlors with indications of a rapid increase in the number. Two major problems are yet to be overcome—a constant supply of high quality feeder pigs and sanitation. Several farmers are making major efforts towards the production of high quality meat type feeder pigs to supply the de mand created by use of pig par lors-. Richlandr~R. W. Bailey — John Rudisill is converting a poultry lay ing house into a 200 capacity hog parlor. This is being done according to extension plans. We have already received plans for a similar parlor for Alex Geiger at the State Hos pital Farm.
