"Because established marketing boards are working well and doing a satisfactory job for producers, farmers tend to become complacent about the boards. They forget the knock- down, drag-out fights that preceded the establishment of most boardS. They fail to see the need for eternal vigilance to ward off attacks on the boards. "Trying to blame one group or another for CEMA's difficulties is simply providing ammunition for • those who would like to see all boards wiped out. This is a time for, farmers to stick together and support the marketing legislation they fought so hard to win." The board agreed that farmers are easily seduced by the kind words of consumer spokesmen who say they don't expect farmers to be underpaid but are bitterly critical of positive actions by farmers to try to get. a fair return. However, when the crunch comes on food prices, Mr. Hill pointed out farmers can depend only on themselves and, their marketing board machinery to see that farmers themselves set the price for farm products.
