Show Page 16—THE HERALD. Provo. Utah, Wednesday, January 30, 1980 White House Meet Draws Farm Heads Roy Holman, Ogden, President of the Utah-Idaho Farmers Union, attended a White House briefing regarding the action taken by the President to embargo grainsales to the Seviet Union. Holman and the National Boardof Directors for Farmers Union were invited to a luncheon at the White House to meet with Secretary of State Cyrus Vance, Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland and other White House officials. The purpose of the meeting was to consult the farm leaders on the action and to solicit their tions. “In the wakeof the decision by President Carter to embargo sales of grain to the Soviet Union, domestic market has witnessed continual price drops,’ Holman said. “In a year when farmers are hit hard by increasing production costs, I want tc see that farmers are not going to be asked to bear the burden of American foreign policy. It is the geal of our National Board of Directors to see that the burden of foreign policy be shared by all Americans equally and not by any one economic sector,” he continued. Holman noted that the National FarmersUnion is calling for legislation which will protect the farmer when their is any interruption of trade for national security reasons. ‘‘The Farmers Union urged Congress to adopt a seven point interium program to offset the economic losses to farmers,” Holman said. The following are the recommendations made to Congress at the White House meeting on Tuesday, January 15: 1. Increase 1979-80 support loan levels to $3.90 on wheat,$2.50 on corn,$6.25 on soybeans and $.62 per pound on cotton with semi-annual adjustments to reflect the parity index 2. Prohibit CCC resale of stocks at less than 10% above the calllevel. or % above the loan level, whicheveris higher 3. Permit a set-aside or paid diversion program for 1980, singly or in com- bination. 4. Amend section 1002 of the 1977 Food and Agriculture Act, which requires price support loan rates be Taised at once to 90% of parity when there is suspension of exports due to short-supply situation, to includeallinStances where there are suspensions or embargosfor national security or other reasons. 5. Provide economic protection for related commodities such aslivestock, which are impacted by the trade stoppage. 6. Provide effective safeguards to assure that the embargoor sanctions are notnullified by shipments through third countries or trading firms. 7. Provide adequate appropriations for farm ams, for production of alcohol fuels from feed grains diverted from export shi its and major reexpansion of the Food-for-Peace Program,with particular emphasis on market developmentactivities. Holman added that the Utah-Idaho Farmers Union at its January annual convention called for immediate production of alcohol fuels. ‘In view of our dependence on foreign sources of and the surplus of feed grain from embargo,it is imparative that we produce alcohol fuels as soon as possible,” he concluded.
