Farm Bureau Fears Farm Wage and Union Bills
R N Fette reports farm leaders fear two legislative packages S 528 and S 529 push minimum wage rules and union bargaining for farm help. S 528 would tax farmers employing over 560 man days with rising wages to 1.25 per hour, while S 529 would force unionizing with compulsory dues, a closed shop, and seniority rules. Critics warn such laws threaten farmer freedom and could resemble agricultural slavery.

It cites 28.5 billion in federal highway taxes over seven years with only 17.1 billion for roads and notes gasoline taxed about 50 percent, higher than diamonds or furs, while retail gasoline prices rose mainly from taxes.
