No Wheat Dumping Pledge By Freeman
Secretary Orville L Freeman says farmers voting on May 21 rejected national marketing quotas for the 1964 wheat crop leaving unlimited production with no price support as an available option. He stresses there will be no dumping of CCC wheat and notes the 1964 program will use the alternative to acreage allotments and marketing quotas if quotas are not approved.

Wheat Program Plans Reviewed in Erie Meeting
Glenn Neely chairs county Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation committee as questions about the May referendum are addressed. The 1964 program offers 50 percent parity price support at about $1.25 per bushel for producers who plant within pre referendum allotments with no 1964 quota penalties for over planting but reduced history credits. Stored excess wheat may be released after July 1, 1961 with no penalty, while under planting risks early release of stored surplus. A national marketing quota and 1965 allotment could be proclaimed if 1963–64 supplies are excessive, with a required referendum. Exports will continue through normal channels, with no dumping of U S wheat.
