TUTTLE Newly-electe- Utah farmers d Un- ion directors this week were planning action on a bevy of resolutions approved at the organizations fourth annual convention 2 in Salt Lake City. February Closing sessions saw approval of an expansive state program and election of eight members of the board of directors. Douglas T. Simpson, Kansas, to his position as was 21-2- ed president. Starting a term as is Jesse S. Tuttle, Castle Dale, and continuing as secretary is Carl A. Larson, Salt Lake City. Other board members elected were Foster Reese, Smithfield; Douglas A. Bergeson, Cornish; Raleigh Williams, Spanish Fork; Joe Malnar, Neola; W. Wallace Holman, Delta; and Evart J. Jensen, Ephraim. The convention centered around the problems of the disappearing family farmer. Guest speaker for the annual banquet February 22 was James G. Patton, president, National Farmers Union, Denver. d A plan to cut down farm production to the point where it affected prices was offered by the NFU president. Mr. Patton advocated restriction of farm production to achieve higher prices, making supply and demand work in the farmers favor instead of penalizing him for his production, as at present. He said when farmers do a good job of producing, they are penalized by the fall in farm prices instead of being rewarded. ' The NFU president said farmers have no bargaining power in the market, and advocated bigger and better organizations of farm groups. Mr. Patton also described what he called two major hoaxes cheap feed and the scale. sliding ' The sliding scale, he said, neinor the ther ended the surpluses, but put farmers even deeper in the hole. Cheap feed policies, he said, eventually meant a lowering in livestock cheap livestock. prices Using history, as a reference, Mr. Simpson earlier cited the family farm system as one of Americas strongest weapons against Communism and stressed the need for action to keep the small farmer on his land. He said countries where the land is owned by only a few persons provide fertile fields for growth of Communism. Today, more than 100,000 farm families a year are leaving their land and going to the city. The vice-preside- nt closely-figure- over-supp- ly UFU head expressed his belief that loss of these farmers is one of Americas gfeatest problems. Utah Farmers Union is taking steps to preserve family farming, Mr. Simpson pointed out. UFU delegates drafted the state program for the year with a series of resolutions. Prominent among the resolutions were statements advocating: price supports of all farm products at 100 percent of parity; support of U. S. Senator Arthur V. Watkins' bill to establish a National Grazing Reserve; government credit agencies; broadening of the Social Security program to include farmers; support of farm program administration by farmers themselves; and continued effort to implement the preference clause in the Upper Colorado River project. This preference clause provides for government-buil- t transmission lines and generating units to carry electric power to load stations d where small REA and power companies could feasiby fake advantage of the Upper Colorado power potential. Farmers Union said it would support a new organization to work toward actual implementation of the preference clause. A resolution on taxation asked for a decrease of the tax burden on low income groups. public-owne- Regional Forester Retires C. J.

Summerfield said today that, contrary to popular conception, the combined mail load that the Post Office Department carries for Congress and federal bureaus has not bigbeen getting smaller ger. Mr. Summerfield added that he gets many letters from citizens who suggest that all he has to do to solve the serious postal deficit, about half a billion dollars a year now, is to persuade Congress and federal agencies to send less free mail. They say that if we didnt have to carry all this mail free we well-meani- could materially reduce the postal deficit, which, on an accumulative basis, has now exceeded five billion dollars since World War II, Mr. Sumirjerfiell said. Actually, although this theory is completely erroneous, the post' master general explained, it is surprisingly widespread, and has even appeared in some newspaper editorials. Mr. Summerfield said he is con' cemed about this widespread mis' conception, because it misleads many citizens into thinking there is an easy way to solve the deficit dilemma.
