Both Gneco and Burns chair
sub-committees and both
requested those assignments,
rather than full chairmanships

could request a change to
agriculture if they so desire, but
they would have to give up their old
seat, according to House Majority
Leader Matthew J Ryan.
For instance. Walter F
DeVerter, 82nd District
Representative from McClure, a
ranking ag committee member
and ag leader, already holds
chairmanship of the Insurance

It is highly unlikely that current
Vice Chairman Noah Wenger will
get the top post Current lack of
seniority, which kept him out of the
chairmanship at the begining ol
the term, will continue to preclude
his being named chairman.
It is uncertain what Wilt’s Senate
committee assignment may be A
post on the ag committee, or any
other committee, will await his
certification and his new, low
seniority rating.
Meanwhile, other several items
of interest to agriculture were
brewing on the Hill
HB 800, a measure to amend and
update the soil conservation laws.

The bill will not have any star

laws Rather, it will give the soil
conservationists legal authority to
do what they need to do to function
properly

Soil Conservation Act was com

Pennsylvania’s growing on-farm
winery business stands to benefit
from HB 357
It will ease the requirements of
the Liquor Control Board by
allowing limited wineries to have
three outlets for wine sales in
addition to the main winery
Under current regulations, a
limited winery can sell wine only
on the premises where the fer
mentation of the wine takes place

Pennsylvania Farmers'
Association supports both HB 800
and HB 357
Grangers are pushing for a
measure to establish higher fines
for falsifying livestock health
records
Currently, fines of $25 to $lOO are
provided for violation of the law, a
level which Grange Master
Charles Wismer calls
“ridiculous ”
While the fines may have been
considered stiff in the early 1930 s
when the original bill was passed,
Wismer said he would like to see a
sterner fine of $lO,OOO imposed for
violations.
Such a move would require
amendment of the old Act’s pen
alty provisions, but could leave the
rest of the measure intact.
Two further items are m the
wings, both relating to milk
security Ixiok for introduction of
one or the other, but perhaps not
both
The first measure would extend
permission for the 31 processors in
the Milk Security Fund to maintain
$200,000 dairy bonding for another
year since the new milk security

revenue to cover a major loss.
The alternative may require all
dealers, including the 31 now in the
security program, to have bon
ding.
At present the Fund’s liability
would be about $25 million if all 31
participating dairies went under
owing 40 day’s milk, or about $4
million if the largest contributor
should fail.
There is hope for more par
ticipation in the Fund, though,
when enrollment re-opens on July

The agriculture budget remains
a sore point with most ag groups.
Most question why agriculture will
see no increase while other
segments of state government are
enjoying a 5.9 percent jump.
“This action is unfair,” says
PFA President Eugene Thompson
Although the Agriculture
Department is singing the party
line, saying it can live with the
budget. Grange Master Wismer
echoes Thompson, saying, “The
budget shows no respect for far
ming’s position as the state’s
second largest industry ”
If sufficient strength and unity
can be mustered a floor fight for
additional ag funds is possible
