These prices are in act >S cordance with the National Wool act as amended by the Agricultural act of 1970 which requires that the support shall be at the above levels for each of the three marketing years through the end of 1973. Pulled wool will continue to be supported at a level com parable to the incentive price for shorn wool through payments on unshorn lambs. As in past years shorn wool payments will be based on a percentage of each producer's returns from sales. The per centage will be that required to raise the national average price received by all producers from shorn wool up to the an nounced incentive price of 72 cents a pound. Mohair payments will be calculated in a manner similar to wool. Payments to producers on the 1973 calendar year marketings will be made beginning in April, 1974. Ap plications for such payments must be filed not later than Jan. 31, 1974, in the Department of A g r i c u l t u r e ' s c o u n t y Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation offices. ,r.< A friend writes this comment: "Seems to me your weekly col umn tackles everything from the strictly male point of view. Are not more women than men in the over-65 age group? Women are a dominant influence in the senior citizens category. Don't under estimate the power of the woman when you talk about the retire ment years." We didn't intend to slight the ladies. They haven't been over looked. W. Seine Bowler, chair man of the board and chief execu tive officer of Pioneer Western Corporation, a national financial services organization, has noted that 12 million women over 65 years "occupy a very important place in the economic, civic and social world about us." For example, about 50 per cent of all individual stockholders in the nation are women. Of the $7.5 billion in average annual individ ual life insurance benefits paid out currently, more than 68 per cent goes to women. Life expectancy for women is increasing faster than for men. In the year 2000, the ratio of over- 65's will be 148 to 100 men. Cur rently, there are four times as many widows as widowers--and some one million of these women are in the labor force, either working or actively seeking em ployment Face up to it, men. The gals continue to be a powerful influ ence right on into the retirement years.
