Eighty-two per cent of the farm ers who responded to the survey voted for a rigid supports, while only 18 per cent want flexible supports. Farmers from eastern states in dicated a preference for flexible supports—in fact, they voted 77 per cent to 23 per cent in that direction. But the votes from the north central and southwestern states overcome the sentiments of the east. One eastern dairy farmer said, “Flexible supports will en courage efficiency in farming, higher consumer spending, and keep the government out of farming”. The rigid support ideas was strongly stated by an Illinois cashTgrain farmer who said, “How can farmers hope to exist by the law of supply and demand in an economy where almost every thing else is manipulated?” The magazine published pro and con arguments on the price support subject in the April, 1954 issue and asked readers to give their views after reading both sides of tht controversy.
