USDA Officials See No Quick Ending Of Federal Price Support Programs
Washington AP by Richard P. Powers reports Agriculture Department officials foresee no rapid end to federal price support programs for wheat feed grains and dairy. An aide to Secretary Freeman warns elimination could raise surpluses, while others stress the need to protect small farmers and incomes. World demand and the PL4090 program drive stock reductions and export plans into 1967, with concerns about a possible Dust Bowl-like impact if supports vanish.

Governor Moore reports 79 million surplus for North Carolina
Governor Dan Moore announced that North Carolina ended fiscal 1986 with a 79 million dollar surplus. The final credit balance stood at 114,166,1250, including about 34 million carried from 1965 for the 1967-69 plan, with much of the surplus from salary reversions as vacancies remained unfilled. Moore touched on university status for East Carolina College, dismissals at the Purchasing Office, and noted no politics in Barnes firing, while deferring comment on tobacco taxation until the budget is released in February.
