of the supply management re
solution heretofore passed at
this' meeting, the directors and
staff of this organization, inso
far as possible, urge the adop
tion of the principles set forth
in the National Dairy Volunt
ary Adjustment Program, as
formulated by Mr. Forsythe.
Forsythe’s program, basic
ally, is a voluntary milk sur
plus reduction plan which is
designed to reduce government
costs, dairy surpluses and with
the least disruption of the da
iry industry.
Previous to passage of these
two resolutions, delegates
heard a summary of the dairy
situation by Forsythe He said,
we as dairy farmers have to
make a basic decision on the
surplus (problem On the one
hand we can support no /pro
gram and allow declining pric
es to adjust supplies Second
is the regulated production aip
proach.
Forsythe also indicated the
outcome of the wheat referen
dum would have a bearing on
dairy legislation this year H
it is defeated, he said, there
probably will be little chance
of any significant dairy legis
lation. H it is approved then
w© can probably expect Con
gress to pass on some form of
dairy legislation.

To Protect Animals
Keeping pastures free of
debris and poisonous weeds
and keeping fences in good re
pair are important steps in
safeguarding the health of live
stock, the Conestoga Veterin
ary Medical Association said
today.
The Association said that
loose wire in fences can cause
needless injury to livestock
Scrap metal left near fence re
pair areas may be swallowed
by grazing cattle.
Poisonous plants, old battery
cells, paint cans, spray vats
and fertilizer bags are .common
causes of illness and death of
cattle on pasture.
The veterinary group said P rice ta^s - Warm weather de
