The program adds 5 million dollars to hay and roughage purchases, expands feed grain subsidies to 1.50 per hundredweight, cuts hay freight rates 50 percent, and reduces cattle shipment costs by 5 percent on round trips. The export import bank approves a 5 million loan to Mexico to buy U.S. beef and dairy cattle, with about 3.375 million expected to buy 40 000 cattle in the Southwest. Milk production in the United States equals a river three thousand two hundred eighty six miles long, forty feet wide and three feet deep.
