Sec. 338. Whenever normal marketing levels are established under this Act, notwithstanding any provision of the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937 (7 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), any order issued under section 8c thereof may in addition to the provisions in section 8c (5) and (7) contain provisions for an adjustment in the uniform price for producers receiving surplus reduction payments for marketing below their normal marketing level. Under such provisions the total payments to such producers under an order shall be equal to (1) the uniform price multiplied by their normal marketing level minus (2) the lowest class price under the order multiplied by the amount by which such producers have reduced marketings below their normal marketing level. In the computation of the uniform price there shall be included, at the lowest class price. the volume of milk upon which producers will be entitled to marketing adjustment payments. For the purposes of this section a producer's normal marketing level shall be apportioned on a monthly basis. In the case of a producer part of whose normal marketing level is based on marketings which were not subject to regulation under the order during the representative period the Secretary shall apportion such producer's normal marketing level in accordance with his deliveries of milk in such representative period and the reduction in deliveries from the amount apportioned to the marketing area shall be considered in the calculation of the uniform price and payment under such order. The incorporation of provisions in an order hereunder shall be subject to the same procedural requirements of the Act as other provisions under section 8c.

For the purpose of this section, a first processor who is also a milk producer shall be deemed to have acquired that portion of his production which he markets in excess of his normal marketing level. Such surplus marketing fee shall become due and payable within fifteen days following the marketing period in which the first processor receives from any producer milk or dairy products in excess of his normal marketing level or at the end of such other period of time as the Secretary may prescribe. The first processor and the producer shall be jointly and severally liable for any default in the payment of the surplus marketing fee and for interest thereon at the rate of 6 per centum per annum from the date such fee becomes due until the date of payment thereof except that the producer shall not be liable for any such default if the amount of the fee was deducted by the first processor from the price paid to the producer.

(c) The Commodity Credit Corporation shall refund to persons determined by the Secretary to be entitled thereto the amount of surplus marketing fees determined by the Secretary to have been erroneously paid to Commodity Credit Corporation.

(d) In case any person who is entitled to a surplus reduction payment or a refund of surplus marketing fee dies, becomes incompetent, or disappears before receiving such payment or refund or is succeeded in law by another, the payment or refund shall, without regard to other provisions of law, be made as the Secretary may determine to be fair and reasonable in all circumstances. The basis for, the amount of, and the persons entitled to receive a surplus reduction payment or a refund of a surplus marketing fee from Commodity Credit Corporation, when determined in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary, and the amount of any surplus marketing fee established by the Secretary, shall be final and conclusive.

Any producer who is dissatisfied with his normal marketing level may, within fifteen days after the date of mailing to him of the notice thereof, have such normal marketing level reviewed by a local review committee in accordance with standards prescribed by the Secretary. Such review committee shall be composed of three producers, appointed by the Secretary, from one or more of the counties in which the producer maintains his dairy herd or herds or counties adjacent thereto.

Such committee shall not include any member of any other committee which determined the normal marketing level for such producer. Unless application for review is made within such period the original determination of the normal marketing level shall be final and conclusive.

The question being taken on agreeing to the amendment, viz, page 66, insert after line 6, the following:

SUBTITLE C-DAIRY SURPLUS Sec. 330. The current rate of production and marketing of milk in the continental United States, excluding Alaska, is such as will result in excessive and burdensome supplies of milk and other dairy products during the marketing year ending March 31, 1963.

In order to afford producers the opportunity and the means by which they can on a compensated basis voluntarily adjust their marketings of milk during the marketing year ending March 31, 1963, more nearly to equal demand and thus reduce Government purchases under its price support program, the Secretary of Agriculture is hereby authorized, through the Commodity Credit Corporation, to carry out for the marketing year ending March 31, 1963, an emergency dairy surplus reduction payments program as set forth in the following sections of this subtitle.

Sec. 331. The Commodity Credit Corporation is hereby authorized to make surplus reduction payments to producers in continental United States, excluding Alaska, who agree to reduce, during any one or more quarterly marketing periods of the marketing year ending March 31, 1963, their marketings to a level not (i) less than 10 per centum or (ii) more than the larger of 25 per centum or seven thousand five hundred pounds of milk below their normal marketing levels established pursuant to sec

tion 434 of this Act for each such quarterly marketing period: Provided, That Commodity Credit Corporation shall, to the maximum extent practicable, limit such agreements so as not to effect adjustments in any dairy district in excess of 10 per centum of the estimated total marketing by all producers in such district during the preceding marketing year. For this purpose, the Secretary shall divide the continental United States, excluding Alaska, into fifteen dairy districts each having therein approximately the same proportion of total milk production. Such payments shall not exceed (i) $2.50 per hundredweight of milk, basis 3.82 per centum butterfat content, (ii) such rates as the Secretary determines will effectuate voluntary reduction in marketings by producers, or (iii) the cost of acquiring such milk in the form of dairy products had such milk been marketed. A producer who fails to reduce his marketings to the extent required by his agreement shall be eligible to the surplus reduction payment on the quantity by which he actually reduced his marketings below his normal marketing level, provided he reduces by as much as 10 per centum of his normal marketing level, but the amount of such payment shall be reduced by an amount equal to 20 per centum of what would have been the payment on the quantity of milk which he failed to reduce. Agreements entered into hereunder may contain such terms and conditions as the Secretary determines necessary to effectuate the purposes of the emergency dairy surplus reduction payments program and to assure that a producer's reduction in marketings is not offset through a transfer of his milk cows to another producer for the production and marketing of milk.

Sec. 332. The Secretary shall establish a normal marketing level for each producer in the continental United States, excluding Alaska, who desires to enter into an agreement with Commodity Credit Corporation pursuant to section 433 of this Act. Such normal marketing level shall be the number of pounds of milk, or the number of pounds of milkfat, or such units of dairy products as the Secretary may deem appropriate for the administration of this subtitle which is the lower of (i) the producer's marketings during the calendar year 1961 or (ii) the Secretary's estimate of what would be marketed in a calendar year by the producer based on the rate of his marketings when he enters into the agreement with Commodity Credit Corporation, adjusted for seasonal variation. In establishing a normal marketing level, the Secretary shall make such adjustments in the producer's 1961 marketings as he deems necessary for food, drought, disease of herd, personal health, or other abnormal conditions affecting production or marketing, including the fact that the producer may have commenced production and marketing after January 1, 1961. A producer's normal marketing level for the marketing year shall be apportioned by the Secretary among quarterly marketing periods

thereof in accordance with the producer's marketing pattern in 1961, subject to such adjustments as the Secretary determines necessary to enable the producer to carry out his herd management plans for the marketing year. The quantity thus apportioned to a quarterly marketing period shall be the producer's normal marketing level for such period.

Sec. 333. The Secretary shall prescribe such conversion factors as he deems necessary for use in determining the quantity of milk marketed by producers who market their milk in the form of farm-separated cream, butterfat, and other dairy products.

Sec. 334. The quantity of milk reduced by a producer purspant to his agreement under this Act shall be considered as having been produced and marketed by him for the purpose of determining his production or marketing history under any farm program in which such history may become a factor. A producer may, to such extent and subject to such terms and conditions as the Secretary may prescribe, transfer his normal marketing level, or any part thereof, to any other producer or prospective new producer who agrees to utilize such normal marketing level for the disposition in commercial channels of milk, butterfat, or dairy products produced in the same State as that in which the transferor engaged in production or any State adjacent thereto. A producer who moves from one area to another and there engages in the production and marketing of milk may take with him all or any portion of his normal marketing level.

Sec. 335. The Commodity Credit Corporation may make supplemental payments to producers of milk for manufacturing who enter into agreements under section 331, which shall be in addition to the surplus reduction payments made to such producers. The amount of such a supplemental payment to be made with respect to the quantity of milk marketed by a producer may not exceed the difference between the United States average price at wholesale of milk for manufacturing and 90 per centum of the parity price for that quantity of such milk.

Sec. 336. (a) The Secretary shall prescribe such regulations as are necessary for the enforcement and the effective administration of this subtitle.

(b) Costs incurred in the carrying out of the provisions of this subtitle shall be borne by the Commodity Credit Corporation and shall be considered as nonadministrative expenses of the Corpora

tion.

Sec. 337. Whenever normal marketing levels are established under this subtitle, notwithstanding any provision of the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937 (7 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), any order issued under section 8c thereof may in addition to the provisions in section 8c (5) and (7) contain provisions for an adjustment in the uniform price for producers receiving surplus reduction payments for marketings below their normal marketing level. Under such provisions the to

tal payments to such producers under an order shall be equal to (1) the uniform price multiplied by their normal marketing level minus (2) the lowest class price under the order multiplied by the amount by which such producers have reduced marketings below their normal marketing level. In the computation of the uniform price there shall be included, at the lowest class price, the volume of milk upon which producers will be entitled to marketing adjustment payments. For the purposes of this section a producer's normal marketing level shall be apportioned on a monthly basis. In the case of a producer, part of whose normal marketing level is based on marketings which were not subject to regulation under the order during the representative period, the Secretary shall apportion such producer's normal marketing level in accordance with his deliveries of milk in such representative period and the reduction in deliveries from the amount apportioned to the marketing area shall be considered in the calculation of the uniform price and payment under such order. The incorporation of provisions in an order hereunder shall be subject to the same procedural requirements of the Act as other provisions under section 8c.

Sec. 338. No person engaged in the purchase or handling of milk, milk fat, or dairy products shall discriminate against any producer who enters into an agreement with the Commodity Credit Corporation pursuant to this Act. The Commodity Credit Corporation shall not purchase dairy products from any person whom the Secretary determines practices such discrimination. The several district courts of the United States shall have original jurisdiction to hear and determine controversies arising under this section, without regard to the amount in controversy, and to enjoin and restrain any person or persons from discriminating or conspiring to discriminate against any producer in violation of this section.
