Houston Farmers Begin
Getting Program Payments
Approximately 25% of the
farmers of Houston County
have received payments for
participating in the 1970 wheat,
feed grain or cotton programs,
according to F. W. Langston
Jr.. Chairman of the County
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation (ASC» Committee.
Payments will continue to be
made as rapidly as farmers
continue to certify program
compliance, and as fast as rec
ords can be processed through
computers at the data process
ing center in New Orleans and
checks returned to the County
ASCS Office for distribution,
Mr. Langston said.
“The bulk of payments should
be made by mid-August if
farmers who signed up com-

plete the necessary certifica
tion indicating they have com
plied with all of the program
provisions,” Mr. Langston stal
ed. This is earlier than pay
ments have been made in pre
vious years.
Mr. Langston pointed out that
these payments to farmers
have an impact on the entire
community because most of
the money remains in the local
area where farmers pay for the
things they need to buy. Par
ticipation by producers in farm
programs helps even out the
year-by-year flow on farm pro
ducts to market, which also
helps stable food and fiber
prices, a benefit to consumers,
he said.
“Farmers earn payments by
diverting part of their cropland
to conservation uses,” Mr.
Langston explained. “This helps
keep a balance between supply
and demand for food and fiber,
preserves the excess acres for
future use when they are need
ed, and provides an orderly
supply of farm products to con
sumers.”
General Tel
Files New
Rate Motion
General Telephone Company
in Georgia last Thursday filed
a motion with the Public Serv
ice Commission for reconsider
ation of the commission’s order
of June 18.
The commission’s order, which
was in response to an applica
tion for increased revenues, al
lows less than half the amount
requested by the company, but
withheld any rate increase at
all until certain conditions con
cerning standards of telephone
service were met.
In its motion, General Tele
phone says the commission err
ed in allowing an increase in
revenues which it said the
company needed to improve
telephone service and at the
same time, denying the in
crease until the telephone serv
ice had been improved.
E. H. Jared, general man
ager of the firm’s Georgia op
erations, who made the an
nouncement of the request for
a rehearing, said, that w ith few
exceptions the company is now
meeting or exceeding the serv
ice standards contained in the
commission’s order.
“Our company has had a
continuing program to expand
and improve telephone serv
ice,” he said.
Jared emphasized that the
data in the case on which the
commission based its decision
is two years old and noted that
during that period of time there
has been a further increase in
costs of virtually all areas of
the company’s operations.
