Farm Bill Debate Reveals 1964 Price Support Shifts
The House debated a farm bill amid party lines as Republicans failed to send the measure back to conference. The bill offers 18 cent direct payments to wheat and feed grain growers who reduce acreage in 1963 and sets 1964 parity based supports from 50 to 90 percent. Democrats argue the plan aims to curb surpluses and avert a Benson-era return, with wheat and corn pricing and a new certificate system for enforcement.

No Agreement In Sight On Estes Asset Sale Hearing
Bankruptcy hearing on Billie Sol Estes assets to Morris Jaffe of San Antonio continued as creditors press for a ruling they say would show Estes Brothers was effectively a sole proprietorship run by Billie Sol Estes and not a partnership with his brother Bobbie. The creditors stalled on a unanimous recommendation for Jaffe, with disputes over a covenant not to sue Commercial Solvents and the handling of fertilizer tanks and liens. A competing offer by E E Gray was deemed unlikely due to lack of a CCC grain storage license, while Jaffe held a current license easing the transfer of elevators.
