Senate Rejects GOP Farm Price Support Cut Attempt
Washington June 6 the senate defeated a republican bid to immediately cut basic farm crop price supports. The Williams amendment would have boosted the Commodity Credit Corporation the extra capacity to 2 billion dollars and allowed supports to drop to as low as 7 percent of parity, replacing current law set to 10 percent in 1952. The vote fell 50 to 18 against the proposal, with only certain democrats voting for it. The chamber then rejected another move to raise CCC borrowing authority to 1 billion.
