Experts Concerned On Turkey Increase Producers Warned On Higher Output WASHINGTON (INS) — For the second time, the agriculture department has cautioned turkey producer* that they may be putting themselves over the barrel price-wise by stepping up output this year. Poultry experts in the department are genuinely concerned. They subscribed to an official statement pointing out that last year's crop of turkeys had rather disastrous effects on the retail market, from the producers' viewpoint. Most of the turkeys found a ready market but at prices well below the 1953 level. In view of what happened last year, the department went to the extreme of urging producers to reconsider their plans for the 1955 crop. Last fall, a similar but more detailed warning was issued and it appeared that this hpd produced the desired effect of persuading growers to cut back. Now, however, the department points out that as of Jan. 1 farmers were keeping five percent more heavy breed turkey hens for breeding purposes than on the same date last year. Some attempt is being made to reduce the output of light breed

turkeys but that is not where the greatest problem ties. As a matter of pure body weight any increase in production of heavy breeds could easily offset a reduction in the crop of light breed birds. If such a situation develops, the turkey supply picture could be thrown badly out of balance since the light and heavy breeds appeal to entirely different kinds of consumer markets.

Report To Assail Hidden Subsidies Publish Report On Lending Agencies WASHINGTON (INS) — The Hoover commission on government reorganization will attack “hidden subsidies” in a hard-hit-ting report on federal lending agencies to be made public next Monday. The commission, which is headed by former _ President Herbert Hoover, is expected to recommend sweeping changes in the labyrinth of government lending and similar operations. The lending agency report will be one of the most important of the 20 or so that the commission intends to issue. The group, it was learned, will contend that subsidies are concealed in a number of federal lending activities. The point it wilt stress is that, if the government is going to advance a subsidy, it should be clearly labeled as such so that the public can know' what it is. Thus, the commission will not oppose subsidies, but will insist that congress should provide for them directly rathef than indirectly. One of the criticisms, it was disclosed, is that certain federal agencies are receiving services from the government for less than .its costs, and thus operate on an unrealistic cost basis, which results in a subsidy. Advance indications are that operations of the rural electrification administration will come in for criticism on this score. While the commission is not expected to oppose the )REA as such, there are intimations that it will insist on a readjustment so as to make clear the subsidy involved in REA power.

Reports On Income To Dairy Farmers Dairy farmers in Adams county received a total cash income of approximately $850,000 this past year in sales of milk through their marketing organization, the Wayne Cooperative Milk Producers in Fort Wayne, manager K. L. Stickler announced today. This is equivalent to about 21,250.000 pounds of milk from local dairy farms, he estimated. At present levels of consumption, this amount, which was marketed through Wayne Co-op alone, would furnish a year’s supply of fluid milk and cream, not including other dairy products, for 47,200 people. "It points up the fact that many dairy farmers in this community must find markets for their milk in some other area if they wish tb stay in uusiness," the manager said.
