Waitkins pointed out today thalt members of the House of Representatives now have an opportunity to extend the National Wool Act provisions for another three years under terms of the Farm Price Support bill passed by the Senate and now before the House Agriculture Committee. The Wool Act expires next March 31. The extension provision is embodied in the present Farm Price Support bill as the Young amendment, of which Senator Watkins was a cosponsor. Utahs senior Senator told fellow members of the Senate during debate: Falure to extend the Wool Act during this Congress will produce uncertainty on the part of wool growers as to their production plans ait the very time we are trying to encourage the annual domestic production of 300 million pounds of wool. Discussing another feature of the wool legislation, Senator Watkins said: (R-U&- ah) realize there has been some promoobjection to the self-hetional program authorized by Section 708 of (the National Wool Act. This criticism seems to come mainly from those people who prefer a program of publicity, research, and information Conducted on a national basis for all meat products by one organi1 lp zation.

As of the same date, receipts in excess of disbursements are slightly in excess of $3 million as well. In my opinion section National Wool Act. Senator Watkins said that upon extension of the National Wool Act, it is planned that the Secretary of Agriculture would hold another referendum to determine the continued willingness of growers to use a portion of their payments (to conduct advertising and sales promotion of their products. He added: )y the drought, seems to feel that such an approach, as far as it Is concerned, is and would be inadequate, Since animlals, sheep are whose major products, wool and lamb, require an entirely different promotional effort han do other livestock. That is a very convincing argument, so far as I am concerned. In this connection, also, I want to point out that the American Sheep Producers Council, ithe promotion aulthorized to carry out There would be no advantage the approval program, has been in requiring that a minimum perhandicapped in its efforts to increase wool and lamb consump- - centage of growers vote in a referendum for the result to be conclusive. As a maltter of fact, such a requirement could work to disadvantage and serve to increase the work and expense of conducting a referendum. Because of the large number of farms and ranches with only a few sheep each, there would be many growers who would not take ithe time to vote. It is doubtful whether many of them will vote regardless of the effort made to get them interested. dual-purpo-se YG ion at better prices to growers Takes Steps for Disease Elimination .
