J?x- if I - A- r'j Co-op spokesmen and promoters have told Congress that the reason co-ops should continue to get exemptions from Federal income taxes is that YOU, Mr. Farmer, pay the tax even though in most cases yoa gel little or nothing in the way of cash with which to pay it. The co-op keeps that cash, tax free, for its own purposes, merely "allocating" its profits loyou in the form of scrip, certificates or mere hook entries. Federal regulations require that YOU, Mr. Farmer, must pay a tax on these in CASH although you get LITTLE OR NO CASH and, in many instances, never wilL Thi tax injustice it a Kigfi price for you to pay in order that co-op promoters may continue to manipulate income tax exemption iat the profit of their, huge commercial bu- nessea. Farmers know that it is only right and fatr that the Income Tax should be paid by the Co-op Corporation which actually snakes and keeps the money. Farmers, more and more, are resenting the manipulations and double-talk that have brought about tax exemptions for cooperative corpora tions while, at the same time, have resulted in loading an income tax liability onto YOU on "income" you do not receive in cash . . . and probably never will! This obviously unfair situation demands correction... now!! Congress is now engaged in making income tax changes, revisions, and closing loopholes. It is high time that YOU join other farmers in vigorously protesting the disenmi nation that allows cooperative corporations to pay little or no Federal income tax on their corporate profits, while forcing YOU to pay an income tax in cash on "allocations consist ing of pieces of paper or credits of an indefinite nature. This injustice can be corrected if you act now. Let your Congress man and Senators know that you do not like this unfair deal!
