Wheat policy clash over 1963 crop prospects and income

The House rejection of administration farm proposals risks returning to pre-1961 wheat laws. Officials warn that this would lower farmer net incomes by about 10 percent in 1963, raise government stocks by 100 to 150 million bushels annually, and add roughly 250 million dollars in annual taxpayer costs versus extending 1962 programs. A referendum and delay are possible if Congress acts for 1963.

Civil Defense Updates Oklahoma Shelter Space Estimates

Oklahoma civil defense officials announced shelter space estimates may rise from 24 100 to about 25 000 spaces with new statistics from the corps of engineers. Fewer than ten caves or similar facilities are being eyed for potential shelter use due to structural and moisture issues. Oklahoma leads the fifth federal CD region in signed shelter agreements with around 600 building owners licensed, while Texas and other states trail. The shelter license allows use of premises for public shelter with no remuneration and assigns maintenance obligations to political subdivisions, not owners. If space rises to 525 000, Oklahoma would still be approximately two million people short of total preparedness.
