Potato Bumping 0n lluge Scale Predicted

ln United States ‘

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1- United

flclliis predicted today that millions of bushels of fronen and rotten potatoes ill be dumped under gov- ernment-lnstructlona during the next several weeks.

They will be part of 1hr 1946 crop surplus of nearly 1000004100 bushels.

Officials estimated the govern- ment's final loss on the surplus will amount to around $80,000,000. The explanation is this:

Under wartime legislation, the agriculture department tinder- wrote the 194d crop of potatoes as well as many other farm products. It assured farmers that they would

—-the theoretical price determined fo be equally fair to producers and consumers. i’ The potato trouble developed when the crop turned‘ out to be about 100,000.000 bushels larger

for and about that much larger than estimated consumer require- rnents.

When this surplus became appur- ent, potato prices tumbled. and the department was left to carry out its legal obligation to assure growers at leas-t 90 per cent of parity,

Two Steps

To do this, it took two steps to remove the surplus from regular market channels so the extra sup- plies would nol push prices below the guaranteed level:

First the department bought large quantities of potatoes and resold them to commercial firms- such as distillers-who otherwise would have used some other com- modity.

Then the department

I ll. S. Taxation Load But $1,500,000.00!)

WASHINGTON. Jan. l - (AP) - The United States‘ annual tax load was cut $500,000,000 by President Truman's proclamation today of the end of hostilities, and

Republicans immediately grabbed

the tax bill for a dash toward further slashes, including a 20 per cent reduction in personal income levies.

The proclamation automatically

cut high war-imposed excise lev- ies, reducing the liquor tax from $9 to S6 a gallon and slashing lev- ies on jewelry, furs, luggage and many other items, effective July 1.

Savings to taxpayers. in the inst half’ of 1947 will amount to more than $700,000,000. On an annual basis. the savings would be about Sl,500,000000.
