Recently, I was able to an
nounce just how much revenue
sharing would mean to my
District in dollars and cents. The
16th Congressional District will
get over $6 million of Federal
money if the revenue sharing
plan now before Congress is
passed.
That’s a substantial sum of
cssh and goes a long way toward
explaining why some of us have
long favored this kind of plan for
relieving the financial burden of
state and local governments.
Ever since coming to Congress in
1967, I have viewed revenue
sharing as one way of putting an
end to the upward climb of state
and local taxes. It is these taxes
that have become such a problem
for Americans, and yet little
could be done about the problem
until another way of helping
finance vital projects at the local
level was developed.
Revenue sharing means that
states and municipalities will
have money available to do
things that need doing without
having to ask for additional
taxes. Federal dollars will be
available to meet locally
determined priorities in states,
cities, counties, villages, towns
FOR CORN HAS WHAT
BIGGER, BETTER YIELDS
Agnco TCF stands for Total
Crop Formula . . . and that’s what
it is... a special, advanced fertilizer
for corn that supplies all the es
sential N-P-K, 'plus the secondary
elements and micronutrients, your
corn needs for extra yields, better
quality.
Because Agnco TCF for Corn
is formulated to meet the specific
nutrient requirements in different
farming areas, your corn is assured
to grow on
panicum. Nor will you find giant
foxtail, crabgrass and most other
grasses ... or lots of broadleafs
like smartweed, pigweed, cockle
bur.
Lasso plus atrazine gets 'em all in
corn.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 13,1972 —
and townships throughout the
country.
The legislation before the
House of Representatives would
put no restrictions on how state
governments could spend these
Federally-shared funds. The
states would be free to use the
money to meet pressing needs in
all fields.
The money channeled to local
governments would have certain
limitations on how it could be
used. Local governments would
required to put the shared
revenue into law enforcement,
transportation and en
vironmental protection
programs. They would have
rather broad leeway in deter
mining how to best spend their
funds within those three areas,
but would not have the complete
latitude given the states.
One of the chief beliefs behind
the whole idea of revenue sharing
is that state and local govern
ments are capable of handling
the Federal funds wisely and
well. Sharing money makes no
sense unless problems and
priorities can be met better at the
state and local level than they
can be met from Washington.
Therefore, the real test of
revenue sharing will be whether
of fast starts, that will produce
thicker, more uniform stands. The
special formulation of secondary
elements and micronutnents sup
plies the vitality needed for mid
season growth and for early, uni
form maturity that makes harvest
ing easier. All this adds up to more
profit for you.
Remember, it takes more than
Nitrogen, Phosphate and Potash
to increase corn yields and quality
. . . and Agnco puts what it takes
in TCF for Corn . . . the right bal
ance of secondary elements and
micronutrients. See us today for

lated for the needs of your soil.

the money is used responsibly by
those who receive it. If much of
the $5.3 billion that is to be shared
nationally ends up being used for
mere political gain rather than to
meet real needs, the program
will be a bust. But if the funds
give local areas an opportunity to
meet challenges they were
previously unable to tackle,
then revenue sharing will become
a positive means of giving power
back to people.
I believe that state and local
governments can be responsive.
That’s why I have supported the
revenue sharing concept. But to
respond, those governments
must know what their citizens
need and want. That’s why I

And it will be to your advantage
to do your part, for if revenue
sharing is a success, you may
find that your state and local tax
bill will become somewhat more
realistic.
