In an editorial in the London
Free Press last week, the editor
was whining that farmers get
subsidies. It seems that there are
people who just don't want to
learn. Time and again it has been
pointed out that subsidies, no
matter who receives them, always
get passed on to • the user of the
product. Not because the
producer wants it that way, but it
follows logically. If production
costs are too high, no profit was
made. If no profit is made
production stops, for no one
works for nothing. The result is a
shortage of product and
subsequently higher prices. If a
government then decides that this
going to happen and the product
is essential, they may grant the
producer a subsidy in some form
or another. This may induce the
producer to keep producing and
thus the price won't go up. Hence
the subsidy benefits the user of
the product. The subsidy, may be
in the form of tax concessions as
in the mining industry or in
helping the farmer to pay his
labour a decent wage or paying
the producer 5c per hundred
pound of milk 'so the consumer
doesn't have to pay more. An

editor of a daily paper, who gives
opinions to thousands of readers
should not give such shallow
opinions.
******
That subsidies wouldn't be
necessary if farmers got paid by
their productivity is shown in the
fact that the farm work force has
been cut in half in the last twenty
years, while production increased n
by 50%. This is not because large
corporations moved into farming,
for virtually all our production is
on family farms. If newspapers
were as efficient they wouldn't
have had to increase their price so.
often.

Food is the nations largest
business. If you count all the
workers on the farm, in •
processing,, transportation,
retailing and restaurant service,
you'll find that one out of every
five workers who works in
industry is connected with the
food industry. An agricultural
industry that receives a fair price
for its products is a big buyer of
all kinds of products. And that
means more and better paying
jobs for labour in urban factories
and service industries.
