Eisenhower open to higher crop supports in bid to ease farm split
President Eisenhower reportedly favored higher support prices for wheat and cotton this year to blunt Democratic moves for a rigid high support system. Democratic farm leaders rejected that compromise, pressing a one year renewal of rigid supports and a billion dollar soil bank while a Senate House conference plans a close door session to craft a workable bill. The House seeks 90 percent parity for 1956 1957 crops, while the Senate mimics the high support level with flexible terms. Conference members hinted at a one year restoration of rigid high supports after a brief Thursday meeting.
