RADIOS Phonographs 0 : McHenry T.V. and Electronics Route 120 - 2 Blocks East of River PH< J 2233 COTTON. WHEAT, CORN PRINCIPAL SUHPLUS PRODUCTS Farm surpluses are very much in the news. They ate Of concern to farmed, because they depress prices. They are of concern to city people because they pay most of the expenses of acquiring and keeping the surpluses. They are of concern to the government because the farm price-support programs developed over the past thirty years tend to pile up stocks faster than they can tie disposed of. The government now has surplus stocks that cost about 8.7 billion dollars. This total includes stocks actually owned by the government, plus products pledged by farmerft for new price-support loans. How much is 8.7 billion dollars' worth of farm products ? It is five times thte total value of the farm products produced and sold off Illinois farms in 1955. It is equal to about one-third of the value of all farm products sold from U.S. farms last year. The 8.7 billion dollars' worth of farm products is equal to about $140 for each of the 63 million persons at work in January. Most of these surplus stocks consist of three crops -- cotton, whea:t and corn -- but the government also has large amounts of several other farm products. Amounts in government hands change every working day, so it is not possible to give a complete up to the minute listing of what is on hand. Here, however, is a general picture of the surplus stocks on hand: CJOTTON, Government stocks of cotton apparently total about 14 million bales, and they cost Uncle Sam about 2 y2 billion dollars. This quantity is more than one year's average production. The total U.S. supply of cotton for this crop year was 26 million bales. This counts privately owned cotton as well as government stocks. U.S. consumption of cotton in recent years has averaged about nine million bales annually, and exports wert about three million bales. Wfflp&T- "!&« government owns or has price-support loans op about oxfe billion bushels. wheat. This amount cost Uncle Sam about 2% billion dQllars. One billion bushels of wheat is more than as produced in either 1954 or 1955< The total UjSV supply of wheat for this marketing year was 1,940 million bushels, tor about three times as much as we use for food in one year.. We can find export Markets for . no more than 300 million bushels. CORN. The government soon will have nearly one billion bushels of corn. This amounjt is aboitt one-third of an average crop pro^ duced in the United States,1 or about as much as the average annual production in the two leading states -- Iowa and Illinois. Total stocks of porn on hand for this crop year were 4.2 trillion bushels, or about one-third more than is likely to be used. About 90 per cent of our corn is fed to livestock, mbstly on thfc farms where it is produced. The export market takes only somewhere around 100 million bushels annually, or about one-tenth of the surplus in government hands. What can we do With these surpluses? (l) We might keep them, or even add to them. iSome people strongly favor this, especially those who profit from storing and handling, the surpluses. Storage costs are about one million dollars a day. (2) We could give some of them away to the hungry in other countries, but thi$ is not so simple as it sounds. Even hungry people do not eat cotton. And many friendly countries, such as Canada 'and Australia, oppose even price cutting on wheat. The fact is that we have been giving away, in one way or another, about half of the wheat shipped out in recent years. And there is no possibility of giving away a billion bushels of corn meal. (3) This leaves us just one other possibility -- to use the stuff ourselves.
