Pay Limit to Farms Debated
Washington AP reports the House Agriculture Committee advanced a three year farm subsidy plan and discussed imposing an individual payment ceiling. The panel leaned toward a $55,000 per crop cap, with no $10,000 or $20,000 limits on cotton, wheat, or feed grains. The measure would cover 1971 to 1973 crops and include an acreage set aside to align output with demand. Chairman W R Poage, a subsidy ceiling opponent, signaled compromise is needed to pass the bill.
