NUMBER 25

SENATORS - REPRESENTATIVES

Personal Sacrifices
Required of Many

By PHIL CAMPBELL
Commissioner of Agriculture

As this is being written the 1957 Geor-
t General Assembly has only a few
ys before adjournment. By the time
issue of the Market Bulletin is pub-
ned, Representatives and Senators of
>General Assembly will have returned
me to attend to their own personal af-
rs which they have neglected for 40

ys.
During the days ahead, between now
d the next session of the General As-
mbly, these Legislators will have to
ther neglect their personal affairs as
2y spend time attending to requests and
shes of their constituents which, among
ier things, will require repeated trips to

2 State Capitol in Atlanta.







Any member of the General Assembly

10 has a profession, business or farm
his cwn to attend to serves as a mem-
of this body at a financial loss to him-
f. Costs of hotels, meals, taxis, tips,
mdry, dry cleaning and other items
nsume most of the legislators pay
ile in Atlanta. If there is any profit
t from his legislative pay, it is more
m used up in trips to Atlanta between
sions and other costs incurred by Rep-
entatives and Senators in serving the
yple of their counties.

Most Representatives and Senators
ve a desire to serve in the General As-
nbly because of their keen interest in
ate governmental affairs and their wish
assist their county in receiving State
vices, Another strong factor which
ises Representatives and Senators to
+k re-election and wish to continue to
ve in the General Assembly is the con-
ual challenge presented to them from
2 political side of this type of service.

County politics and politics of the
eral Assembly and the State Govern-
it has a tremendously stimulating af-
on the vast majority of all of those
to have ever participated in the great
of politics, :

Georgia General Assembly is a
about which much has been and is

being written. It is a body never fully
understood by anyone who has not ac-
tually served in the capacity of a repre-
sentative or senator. The best description
of the Georgia General Assembly is that
it is composed of a cross-section of the
citizens of the State of Georgia, which, in
effect, means that every type citizen
found in the State at some time or other
is represented by service in the General
Assembly, and usually any General As-
sembly will have among its members a
representative of every type citizen found
in Georgia. This being true, the people of
Georgia need never have any fear of the
future of the State, because in the final
analysis the General Assembly will re-
flect the views of the people of Georgia
and in its deliberation and passage of laws
will do what is best for the State and the
people.

During my eight years of experience
with the Legislature as a member and as

Commissioner of Agriculture, I have al-

ways found it farm-minded and very re-
ceptive to any legislation which would
benefit the farm people of Georgia.

Because of the almost thirty farm
bills passed during the 1956 Session of the
Legislature, very little farm legislation
has been necessary during the 1957 Ses-
sion. However, there are a few measures
which will be passed by adjournment
time and a description of these will be
carried in the next issue of the Market
Bulletin for the benefit of the farmers and
other citizens of Georgia.



Conservation Reserve
Deadline !s Extended

The March 15 deadline for signing up
for participation in the Conservation Re-
serve program of the Soil Bank this year
has been extended to April 15 according
to John F. Bradley, Athens, administra-
tive officer for the Georgia Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation Commit-
tee,

After that date, Bradley says, no
more contracts involving annual pay-
ments for 1957 will be accepted.

Bradley explained that Congress has
authorized payments to producers under
the Conservation Reserve program which
will not exceed $450 million in any calen-
dar year.

Money for payments has been allo-
cated to states and counties, he contin-
ued. Funds not used by a county by the
March 15 closing-date will be reapportion-
ed to other counties which have a wait-
ing list. Unused funds in a state may go to
other states with waiting lists.

As more farmers sign contracts, the
increasing number of farmers who will
receive annual payments in succeeding
years will reduce the funds available for
new farmers to enter the program.

Bringing the situation closer to home,
Bradley pointed out that the initial allo-
cation to Georgia for the 1957 Conserva~
tion Reserve program was $7,422,000.
Part of this will be used for annual pay-
ments to the relatively few farmers who
signed contracts last fall. The balance is
available for those who sign contracts be-
fore March 15.

Assuming a full sign-up this year,
the ASC officer explained, a greater part
of the funds available to the county for
next year will be used for making annual
payments. To that extent there will be re-
duced funds for initial payments for those
who wait until next year to sign up.

The U. S. Department of Agriculture
announced previously that it does not ex-
pect to be in position to deliver payment
certificates to farmers who participate in
the 1957 Acreage Reserve programs of the
Soil Bank until about harvest time for
the latest of the crops for which com-
pliance must be checked.
