Grange Sessions Debate Milk Board and Tax Relief
The 101st State Grange Convention in Reading urged a full investigation of the Milk Marketing Board, rejected its abolition, and backed HB 105 for farm land tax relief limited to agricultural producers or those keeping land in use. Delegates elected new state and county committees and urged various policies on farming, waste management, road building, and gun control. Governor Shapp and Agriculture Secretary McHale spoke, urging rural welfare, infrastructure fixes, and full farming economy reform.
