Budget Director Maurice H. Stans said President Eisenhower will ask Congress to realign the veterans pension system with Social Security, unevenly raising and lowering benefits. He warned of a Capitol Hill fight but tied the change to fiscal health and possible tax cuts. The plan includes cutting farm price supports for 1960 while noting large crop storage costs and incentives for larger yields.
