Carlson Sees Farm Bill Struggles Amid Election Year Drama
Senator Frank Carlson described the farm legislation as one of the most trying sessions, citing regional divisions among farm blocs and conflicting commodity interests. He noted farmers have lost about a third of their income since 1951 and urged parity prices for wheat, with a soil bank provision seen as promising but limited this year. Carlson reported the parity plan gaining backing in principle from Sen. Elfeneder while Secretary Benson opposes it, and said he would return to Washington on April 8 seeking reelection.
