Page Nine The Utah Farm Bureau this week placed the blame for food shortages on government price controls and manipulation of the competitive market system. Elmo W. Hamilton, president of Utahs largest farm group, We can have told newsmen, adequate supplies of food if we will let the market system do its work by putting an immediate end to these price controls and by providing the incentive for farmers to produce. We need to call an immediate halt to the freeze on beef prices and we must end this unwise government manipulation of the economy. He said the current supermarket dilemma is unlike anything Americans have ever seen. The housewives have more money to spend on food than ever before, but they find it difficult to buy all the kinds of food they want. Demand for farm products has risen sharply. Hamilton listed several reasons: Each American is eating one third more beef now than 10 years ago, a liberalized food stamp program has boosted demand for better foods, buyers in other nations want more meat and other food, and our population is growing. Recent panic buying for storage has also put pressure on the food supply line. While demand is increasing, he described several political and economic roadblocks to providing that farm abundance that we have learned to enjoy in the country. These include unnecessarily strict environmental regulations such as bans on effective pesticides, predator controls and live stock growth stimulants; unfavorable weather, fuel shortages, and price controls and boycotts that discourage increased production of food. Price controls and a free economy cannot work together, Hamilton declared. Recent decreases in production of beef, hogs, poultry, milk and other foods are the result of earlier boycotts and more recent price controls, he said. To solve the food problem he pointed out that the root cause of inflation, excessive government spending, must be attacked through a balanced federal bug-ge- t. Insured Savings Assns.
