Ford meets with farm editors in White House room

President Gerald R. Ford greeted a group of farm editors in the White House Sevenths Room, describing the farm vote as very important. He cited improvements in the economy over 21 months in office and noted he is the first president in 20 years to enter an election in peacetime. Ford praised Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz for his superb work in both legislative and administrative duties.
