AlB—Lancaster Faming, Saturday, October IS, 1983 WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Senate October 7, by a voice vote, passed the Dairy and Tobacco Adjustment Act of 1963. The bill provides for modifications to both the Federal dairy price support program and the Federal tobacco program. “This bill makes comprehensive changes in both of these com modity programs,’’ said Senator Jesse Helms, Chairman of the Agriculture Committee. “For dairy, it means supply and demand will be brought more into balance. Hopefully, we can now stop building massive government surpluses of dairy products and start reducing government outlays.” “The changes made in the tobacco program are both significant and tar reaching. By freezing the price support, we will help make our tobacco farmers more competitive in world markets. The changes in the lease and transfer provisions will disarm critics of the tobacco program and ensure the sound continuation of the program for years to come.” The dairy provisions Include; " 1) Lowering the price support from $13.10 to $12.60 per hun dredweight between the first month after date of enactment and September 30, 1965, except that a) on March 31,1985, the price may be reduced 50 cents if estimated Commodity Credit Corporation WORK BOOTS never looked so B good! 9801 led wing) BOOKS SHOE SERVICE 107 E.
