From
Evergreen Engines
Evergreen Engines Company has been the
distributor for John Deere diesel engines in
Eastern Pennsylvania since 1979. During
that period, we have repowered or replaced
the engine in most models of machines
manufactured by Deere, both agricultural
and industrial.
We have been active in the OEM marketplace
both in new equipment and repowering or
replacing engines in used OEM equipment.
We have worked with many different types of
equipment, such as irrigation pumps, electric
generators, conveyors, fire equipment, air
compressors, and various construction and
agricultural machines manufactured by com
panies other than Deere.
We try to maintain an inventory of 70 new
engines on hand at all times, and pride
ourselves on fast (usually 24 to 48 hours)
delivery.
We maintain our own in-house fuel injection
pump room and a complete parts inventory.
We now offer a generous core credit
exchange on your old engine.
At Evergreen, we deliver....from application

Give us the opportunity; we’ll prove what we
say.

Bedell says CCC loan delay
WASHINGTON - U.S. Rep.
Berkley Bedell, said that the
Administration’s procrastination
in asking Congress for additional
money for Commodity Credit
Corporation loans to farmers is
another example of this Ad
ministration trying to “kick far
mers in the teeth.”
"For the Administration to wait
until they are completely out of
funds, and three days before
Congressional recess, before
coming to Congress for emergency
funds is another case of the
complete lack of concern for the
farm community. I wonder what
they will find to do next,” Bedell
said.
The Commodity Credit Cor
poration notified its local offices
that they could not make ad
ditional price-support loans to
farmers because the money has
ran out. President Reagan on
Tuesday (Feb. 4) asked Congress
for an additional $8 billion for the
program, but the request was not
made until after CCC was out of
funds. Farmers coming to their
local offices expecting to receive
their check for their CCC loan are

being told that the money is not
available until additional funding
is approved.
“This is just a disasterous
' situation,” Bedell said. “If the
Commodity Credit Corporation
can’t continue making loans, we
effectively have no price support
program. This problem could have
been avoided if the Administration
had made a responsible budget
request in the first place. Since the
Administration didn’t do that,
officials should have at least come
to us in a reasonable amount of
time to approve more funding
before the money ran out. ”
The Appropriations sub
committee for agriculture was
scheduled to meet Wednesday
afternoon to consider the
President’s request for additional
funds. It was not clear how long it
would take for Congress to approve
the money.
“I hope that we can move
quickly,” Bedell said. “I have
talked with Jamie Whitten,
chairman of the Appropriations
Committee, and urged that this
matter become an immediate
priority.”
