According to Hugh B. Work
man, chairman, Agricultural

ASC committeemen have broad
important program responsibil
ities, which make it all the
more urgent that representa
tive farmers be elected to the
job.” He urged all qualified
voters to be sure to cast their
ballots.
Each year, the chairman ex
plained, such qualified voters—
farmers who are taking part or
are eligible to take part in one
or more of the farm progams
which the committees admin
ister—elect a community com
mittee from their number. The

regular member of this com
mittee also serve respectively
