EDDIE the EDUCATOR says Lincoln ts rtportad It ha** laid: "It is mr duly t® tdvctrt* our cfciltlRnoit Educotion Association We are frequently told that farmers could get satisfactory incomes if they would only "adjust supply to demand." This* is an ' impressive statement. But what does it really moan? It there real scientific backing for the idea that farmers can solve their income problems by adjusting supply to demand. Or is the idea a deceptive attraction, an economic will-o-the-wisp? Farmers, and other citizens too, have a right to know. The words "supply" and "demand" are sometimes used with different meanings. In the usual sense, supply means the amount that is in existence at a given time and place. In economics, supply also refers to a rate of production, over a stated period of time. In .either sense,. supply refers to a quantity made available on a market in response to a variety of conditions. that includes the price of the commodity in i question. 4 In demand, there is no "in: | ventory" meaning comparable ! with the first supply concept, j However, demand can refer to : a rate of sales over a given pe- ; riod of time. In such case, de- J noand refers to a quantity re- ; moved from a market in re- j sponse to a variety of conditions thai includes the price of j the commodity in question. j Any supply can be sold • (economists som etimes say "will be demanded") at some price. The higher the price, the less will be demanded, or sold. The lower the price, the more will be demanded. Supply and demand come into equilibrium and the market clears at some : price. Most of those who talk about 1 adjusting ^supply to demand seem believe that there is some specific rate of production that will insure profitable prices and satisfactory incomes to all, or most, producers. Many believe that only a small cut in output would force a big rise in prices and thus insure prosperity for producers. This belief is based on observations of the effects of small changes in supplies upon prices of some farm products from one year to another. But continuous low production is something else again! Substantial amounts of all of our big money crops--wheat. I cotton, .tobacco, corn and soy- I beans (rice,too) --are exported. Altogether, exports of U. S. | farm products amount to about j four billion dollars a year. The j j crops from one acre in eight | are sold in foreign countries or j shipped, as "aid." We also im- j pbrt about four billion dollars | worth of farm products, half j | of which compete with our own | j production. j j Even if we were able to force i | our own consumers to pay ! j more for their food, cotton and , i tobacco, we cannot force for- I eign buyers to do so. They have , many other sources of supply. 1 Other countries already put : j five times as much competitive j , agricultural products into for- ' eign trade as does the United States. As farmers we would like to sell rnore of the higher priced foods -- like butter, beef, pork apd milk --to consumers. But all of these foods have lower priced substitutes -- margarine for butter, chicken for beef, eggs for pork, eic. If food prices rise materially, consumers will use more of the economy foods and leave the higher priced ones on the shelves. As they become more accustomed to using the less costly foods, their desire, their demand, for the higher priced ones will decrease and the prices will decline. For these and other reasons it seems very doubtful lhat any large, share of the income prob- I lems of farm families can be ! solved by restricting produc- | tion to raise prices of farm j products.
