Lancaster Fa rming Saturdayr Food survey scheduled WASHINGTON, D.C. - A one-year nationwide food consumption survey by the U.S. Department of Agriculture is scheduled to start in April 1977. Ap proximately $7 million will be spent over three fiscal years to obtain and analyze the survey data. It will be the most com prehensive survey of its kind ever undertaken - data collectors will visit 15,000 households. In addition to checking food consumption by households and by in « dividuals, the survey will include two supplemental data collections. In one, food consumption data will be gathered in Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, and the other will be in 5,000 households where elderly people live. The 1977-78 survey will be the sixth nationwide food consumption survey. Earlier ones were done in 1935-36, 1942, 1948, 1955, and 1965-66. Data from nationwide surveys are used in many nutrition and education programs, and are the principal statistical sources for developing national food and nutrition policy. USDA’s Agricultural Research Service (ARS) has chief responsibility for planning and developing criteria for the survey, and supervising data collection. ARS’ Consumer and Food Economics Institute (CFEI), Hyattsville, Md., will analyze and evaluate thc data and make it available to a variety of users. Other government agencies providing support for the survey are the Ad ministration on Aging of the Model 9165T6 ) rr 5: Social Security Ad ministration and the Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare; the National Marine Fisheries Service, U. S. Department of Commerce; and USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service. A commercial firm under contract with ARS, the National Analyst Division of Booz, Allen, and Hamilton, Inc., Philadelphia, Pa., will do the actual data collection. Taxes up Federal withholding tax for the average worker supporting a family of four is up 23.4 per cent over last year, the biggest jump for any expense category. In comparison, food costs are up only 2.4 per cent, medical cares up 9.7 per cent, transportation is up 15.5 per cent, overall average con sumer prices are up 5.6 per cent. If inflation for goods and services were the only factor hitting pay checks, consumers would still be ahead of last year since pay increases were adequate to cover those increased costs. But with higher pay, the greater the percentage for taxes, so consumer buying power actually has declined nearly one per cent. TRY A CLASSIFIED AD!
