Peale Speaks
Dr. Norman Vincent Peals,
minister of Marble Collegiate
Church, New York City, asserted
that the positive approach to
living is the greatest need of
people today. Dr. Peale cited
again and again examples of men
and women who are in search of a
meaningful life.
The internationally known
minister pointed to the loss of
one’s identity in today’s society
as a contributing factor to our
problems.
However, He was quick to state
that those of us who have many
problems are living an active life.
It is when you have no problems -
then you are in trouble.
Speaking at the Inter-State
Milk Producers Cooperative
banquet for 875 persons Tuesday
evening, November 23, Dr. Peale
urged the people who expect a lot
our of life to think positive as they
approach their daily problems
and the dilemma that faces this
nation.
Wilbur Seipt, president of
Inter-State, opened the annual
meeting with a challenge to the
117 delegates: “Asdairy farmers
we must be extremely careful
that we do not find ourselves in
the position of having national
legislation which may (with
reference for example to solids
and waste disposal control and
run-off) be in conflict with state
health regulations which we must
pass in order to sell milk.” Seipt
asserted, “There is a need ‘for
the maintenance of a strong

Dr. James E. Honan, general
manager, emphasized in his
delegate report that “we cannot
sit and wait for all future
business decisions to come. As
your manager,” asserted Honan,
“I recommend we give strong
consideration to being
prepared.
“One of the trends in
agriculture and in Inter-State,”
Honan continued, “is that we
have held on to some of these old
standards of good citizenship,
patriotism, individual respon
sibility, strong religious faith,
and high standards of social
attitude and behavior. I believe
this is a most important trend to
continue,” he concluded.
Dr. Phillip Alampi, Secretary
of Agriculture, State of New

the banquet.
Edward L. St. Clair, market
administrator, Federal Milk

young farmers breakfast and told
the milk producers that their
problems today were similar to
those of their forefathers. The
market administrator related for
the early-rising group many
activities of dairy farmers living
in this general area at the turn of
the century to “the problems you
men face today.”

WASHINGTON REPORT
Congressman Edwin D. EsMeman
1M Dbtrlct-i'aniuyfvaiilfl
From time to time I think it is
important to use this column to
brief you on the status of major
legislation.
This week I’m going to give a
run-down of where some of the
Nixon Administration’s chief
legislative proposals stand at the '
moment, as well as some other
prime legislative issues.
It now appears that dozens of
the Administration requests will
be left in congressional cub
byholes when the first session of
the 92nd Congress goes home,
probably sometime in December.
This is some of what is left to be
done;
Strikes. There has been no
action in either house to deal with
transportation strikes which
create national emergencies.
There is a comprehensive plan on
this subject submitted by the
Lancaster Farming, Saturday. December 11.1971
Administration, and although the
White House has asked
repeatedly for Congress to
consider this plan, no movement
is underway to bring a bill up for
a vote.
Revenue sharing. Here again is
a program that is stalled on both
sides of Capitol Hill. Despite the
overwhelming endorsement of
the American people for a
revenue sharing approach, and
despite numerous statements in
support of revenue sharing by
Congressmen and Senators, this
legislation appears to be a dead
issue for this session and perhaps
for the entire 92nd Congress
Government reorganization.
The Administration proposed a
sweeping reorganization of the
Federal Government designed to
increase government efficiency
and thus save money Neither
house has passed the needed
legislation
Women’s rights. The proposed
constitutional amendment on this
subject is not going to clear
Congress this session. It has
passed the House, but the Senate
has not yet completed committee
action on the bill
Electoral college reform.
Changes in our system for
electing a president are not
moving very rapidly in this
Congress In 1970 the House voted
to elect the president by popular
vote, but that legislation died m
the Senate Nothing on this
subject has come up in either
body this session, and because
ratification by 38 state
legislatures also would be
required, the nation would seem
to be headed toward another
presidential election year faced
with the risks inherent in our
electoral college system
There are some other areas
where the legislative outlook is
somewhat brighter. Here is a
partial list of those-
Environmental quality. The
prospects are good that a water
pollution control bill will clear
Congress during the second
session.
Taxes. Perhaps by the time this
column is printed, a tax relief bill
will have been sent to the
president for his signature
Economic controls. The Ad
ministration has put the
legislation required by Phase II
of its economic program on the
“must list” for action before
adjournment It seems likely that
Congress will respond in this
case, and enact the controls
before the Christmas break.
As you can see, there is a lot
which needs to be done on Capitol
Hill both m the immediate future
and in the second session con
vening in January.
And it must be remembered
that as we get closer and closer to
political campaign time, it will
become tougher and tougher to
get anything done in Congress,
That’s not being pessimistic, just
realistic.
USDA Food Output Up
Foods donated to the States by
the U.S. Department of
Agriculture to Improve diets of
school children, needy families,
and needy persons in charitable
institutions totaled 2.31 billion
pounds in the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1971 up 10 per cent
over the 2.1 billion pounds
donated in fiscal year 1970.
USDA food donations for needy
families during fiscal year 1971
amounted to 1.3 billion pounds
about 12 per cent more than in
fiscal 1970. The foods donated
cost $321.2 million 11 per cent
more than in the previous fiscal
year.
