Farmers, alert!
Jim Davis In The Plalnvlew Reporter-News
THE DECISION TO WAIT before lifting the
Russian embargo bodes ill for farmers,
because it suggests that (a) the Reaganites. while
perhaps interested in eliminating farm subsidies to
cut the federal budget, aren't entirely interested in
letting domestic farm prices go ripping out of
sight; and (b) export policy isn't going to be simple
export policy; it is going to be part of foreign
policy.
That means that the Reaganites are likely to
invoke some sort of price-inhibiting policy if
foreign exports force domestic prices up too high
too fast, and it means that the establishment of
foreign markets and pricing will be contingent on
State Department considerations, the maintenance
of foreign markets will be contingent on State
Department considerations...everything in foreign
trade will be tied to things that have nothing
whatsoever to do with farming, farmers, farmer
survival or anything else.
There are risks enough in foreign markets if our
government stays out of it completely. A country's
political system could collapse, fall into revolution,
come to political odds with the United States...all
sorts of things can happen to lose a market place,
but that sort of thing is a risk in any business.
There are added risks with the United States
government involved, as Jimmy Carter and
presidents before him managed to prove with
embargoes.
But it seems to me that the risk of going to
foreign export dependent on farm policy with
Reaganites in office is a great deal more risky than
under any president in recent history. Reagan and
Haig and their tough talk, and their inclination to
support the Shahs and Somozas of the world...if
they're on "our" side...have a greater capacity to
alienate and destroy world markets than Jimmy
Carter and his vacillation over "human rights"
ever did. Mostly Reagan and Haig have a
tremendous capacity to destroy "The" markets,
Russia and China, by mouthing their way into a
world separated by ideologies which don't have
anything to do with Russian or Chinese or
American realities.
I'm not about to suggest that we ignore the
potential benefits of foreign markets. I'm not about
to suggest that we not emphasize the development
of foreign markets. I'm not about to suggest that
we leave foreign policy out of the considerations.
I am going to suggest that the farmers ought to
be doing everything they can to insure that some
degree of government-backed protection be main-
tained as a part of the system...just in case foreign
trade doesn't turn out to be the boom that
Reaganites think it will; and just in case...boom or
no boom...other Reagan policies manage to screw
it all up.
I am suggesting, too, that the Reagan people
give farmers and consumers alike some idea of
what they propose to do if foreign commodity trade
turns out to be so successful that Americans can't
afford their own food.

has been to ask for, and get from Congress, a S50 billion raise In the
celling on the national debt. The President's advisors will no doubt
explain that, in view of continuing inflation, the new higher debt limit
is actually lower, In terms of gross national product, than the old
ceiling adopted under the Carter Administration. As Alice once
observed in her Wonderland, "It gets curlouser and curlouser." And
President Reagan, who echoed Henny-Penny's cry, "the sky is
falling!" in his first address to the nation last week, might have
added reassuringly that the sky may be falling but the national debt
isn't going to.
