Oklahoma Farmers Union seeks parity plan and farm aid measures
At the Oklahoma Farmers Union convention, delegates consider 21 resolutions on the National farm program. A key proposal calls for 100 percent parity income protection for all farm commodities, with other income safeguards. The committee backs adequate funding for national defense and measures to expand demand for farm commodities while balancing marketing. Janes G. Paton criticizes Eisenhower’s farm policy, arguing it increases surpluses and government spending, and cites a $317.6 billion price-support outlay and $15.8 billion net income loss since 1951.
