Symington and Ike clash on farm price supports and controls
In Washington, Sen. Stuart Symington proposes a farm bill boosting price supports and broadening controls, with production quotas for individual farms. The administration seeks lower supports and fewer controls, aiming to curb overproduction and steady farm income, while both sides condemn the current parity formula. Markets show mixed to higher moves: stocks up, bonds mixed, soybeans rallying, hogs steady to higher, and cattle prices slipping slightly.
