have an unlimited choice in se
lecting prime land for indus
trial, suburban and urban de
velopments.
Competition for land around
our metropolitan areas is in
creasing and this trend will
continue, Broderick reported.
He said that new super high
ways, new parks, lakes, camp
ing grounds, golf courses and
new communities are consum
ing great quantities of land
in the commonwealth.
Broderick told the planners,
local government officials and
state and federal representa
tives attending the two-day
session that the Pennsylvania
Legislature is concerned about
the stewardship of the natural
resources in the common
wealth. He said today we con
tinue to ibuild upon the great
work of William Penn and Gif
ford Pinchot in cleaning our
streams, revegetating strip
mine areas, developing new
recreation projects and con
serving the soil and water re
sources. Project 70 and the
$5OO million land and water
conservation reclamation bond
issue are milestones along the
road to a commonwealth of
excellence, Broderick reported.
The two-day Soils Congress
dealt with the use of soil sur
veys in selecting land best suit
ed for urban and suburban de
velopments. Ivan McKeever,
State Conservationist of the
U.S. Soil Conservation Service
and Chairman of the meeting
told the group that more than
50% of the land has been sur
veyed in the commonwealth
This survey program, he said,
is being carried out by Penn
State University, the Penna.
Dept, of Agriculture and the
Soil Conservation Service.
R. Budd Dwyer, Assembly
man from Crawford county,
told the Congress that the
Penna. State Legislature is con
cerned about soil surveys be
cause many of the state agen
cies use surveys in their every
day work. He said that too of
ten some of our new develop
ments are a hodgepodge of dis
orderly developments with
their accompanying problems
of septic tank failures, con
tamination of wells, wet base
ments and flood damages. Dwy
er said that approximately 20,-
000 septic tanks are installed

years. Canada’s crop has shown
considerable improvement, and
both Argentina and Australia
expect to have large quantities
for export. Despite this com
petition, however, we are still
optimistic that our export goal
of 750 million bushels will be
met.
“What is crucial at the mo
ment, however, is the urgent
need to shore up prices. We
have taken every possible ac
tion we can legally take to
check this downward trend.”
Actions listed by the Secre
tary include reducing the 1968
wheat allotment in line with
the flexible farm program,
holding CCC stocks off the
market, moving large amounts
of wheat under the Food-for-
Freedom program, distribution
of wheat certificates to ease
the financial pressure of har
vest time, commodity loans and
selling or renting CCC storage
bins to help withhold crops
from temporarily glutted mar
kets, loans for building on-farm
storage facilities and for con
ditioning equipment, extension
of loans on grain in commerci
al warehouse storage as a sup
plement to the long-time farm
reseal program, and negotia
tion of the new International
Grains Agreement which next
year will insure a higher mini
mum export price about 23
cents a bushel above the level
of the old agreement.
