W ashington, D.C.- The new Food stamp program nearing passage today in the House is a ,"giant step backward from Food Stamp reform." Congressman Steve Symms said. Symms, R-Idaho, said the Agricultural Act of 1977, which includes the Food Stamp program has been reformed to end widespread abuses reported in the past" Symms said, "the few safeguards that existed have been eliminated." "Despite claims that the program has been reformed to end widespread abuses reported in the past," Symms said, "the few ufe- guards that existed have been eliminated." Symms said the purchase requirement which required recipients to pay graduated amount in exchange for the stamps has been eliminated and the stamps will now be issued free of charge. "This opens the door in increased usage of stamps, more abuse and the progrmn costa may well reach $10 billion annually soon." Symme, a member of the House Agriculture Commit.- tee, said the bill provided more welfare, more work disincentives, and is"a re- turn to the bread and cir- cuses of Rome, here in America." "I do not want to deny anyone three meals a day, but this program is self- defeating. The bill does Helen Meyer -MRS. ADAMS COUNTY FAIR QUEEN. Photo by Vivian McGown I.
