Equal opportunity in conservation and ASCS defense
A group led by Mrs. Brady defends the Linn County ASCS against critics of soil aid programs. They argue county committee members and staff should receive equal ACP consideration, deny bias, and note minimal compensation while focusing on conservation efficiency and public accountability. The letter also corrects The Gazette on LTA fund allocations and emphasizes outreach to low income farmers.
