He sounded several warnings to those in attendance. First he warned them to guard their freedoms and solve their problems at the lowest possible level to avoid government intervention that is all too often destructive. Second, and related to the first, he believes it is possible that the United States could reach a state of socialism before the people of China become capitalistic, which he believes they are gradually heading toward. Third, he told the members in attendance that if they did not tell their story of agriculture and what it is doing to help America, that they were in danger of having the gloom and doom people destroy their markets and products. Relative to the latter, he said that all recent tests have not confirmed past claims of blood serum cholesterol through eggs and animal fats as promoted by the vegetable oil interests. He warned IFA members about people who are striving to keep farmers from feeding grain to livestock with claims that it is depriving people of the third world nations from getting food. He said they could get the food if they had the money to buy it, and that further, the feed grain system is the best emergency food system in the trawl PO 7M SOX J NO IN l$T WIST 4601 PROVO, UTAH world. Wallentine gave members examples of the positive effects of agriculture on the U.S. and world economy. He cited how it had helped reduce the national deficit in trade by $23.7 billion of the last year or by 25 national trade deficite and that this year it is expected to be $26 billion. This represents one acre in four going to shipments to other countries. He complained of how quickly politicians jump on a rise in food prices but say little when they drop and pointed out that U.S. citizens pay only 17 of disposable Income on food while in some othef countries residents spend up to 85. He had some up to date figures, having just recently returned from the Orient where he said the price of hamburger in Japan is $5.79 per pound, a loaf of bread is $1.05, one orange is 65t, and cherries are 7 1 each of $4 per pound. In China, Wallentine says, of the people make their 85 While living from agriculture. state owned, are farms most each farmer has a small plot of land to farm for himself.

He believes that more people will die of botulism, without the preservative, than may contract cancer with it. He sees many other instances where the farmer should take a stand. In his message to the IFA members, Chairman of the Board Richard F. Jones said, I would not worry about the prices we have to pay for the supplies and equipment we need in agriculture if we could be assured that the price we receive for our product would be in line. But he pointed out that agriculture is the only segment of our economy that operates on a strictly free enterprise system. Jones went on to point out that since the percentage of the farm people compared to the total population is gradually shrinking ... if we are to have a voice in our destiny, we must "One of the greatest pains to human nature dominates presently the pain of a new idea."
