Congressmen End 10 Day Vacation
Congress returns from a 10 day Easter break to a farm policy showdown. President Eisenhower criticized the farm bill as unacceptable and advocates plan to send the bill back to a House Senate conference committee amid talks on compulsory price supports and a sell bank proposal. Senate and House conferees had drafted a compromise that would raise parity based supports and other features, but administration veto risk remains if reforms deviate from presidential principles.

Eisenhower seeks major defense funding hike to 547 million
President Eisenhower asked Congress for an extra 547.1 million dollars in defense funds for the coming fiscal year starting July. The money would accelerate B52 bomber production, expand strategic air command basing, advance early warning development, and cover ship conversions, with minor Army and Navy increases. The White House says this does not raise overall 1957 department outlays by more than 400 million, amid debates over security needs and Soviet progress.
