President Ford vetoes farm price support bill
Washington reports President Ford vetoed legislation to boost farm price supports, saying it would worsen the federal budget deficit and harm markets. He warned the bill would be costly for consumers and farmers, undermine market oriented policy, and risk a deficit approaching 100 billion dollars. Congress had pushed the measure after a five month price slide to backstop farmers for 1976.

The Texas House Public Education Committee narrowly rejected Gov Dolph Briscoe’s school finance plan and approved the Texas Teachers Association bill with a $10,000 annual salary floor for beginning teachers. The measure would implement market value as the sole state aid need measure, while Briscoe’s plan would delay it two years.
