Illinois farm leaders urge immediate soil bank legislation
Illinois farm leader Steffey told the Illinois Agricultural Association Congress that Congress should enact the soil bank plan at once to reduce surpluses and align supplies with demand. He supported raising the corn acreage allotment to 51 million acres and included a provision to place part of cropland in the bank to qualify for future price supports. He warned against relying on high price supports and noted the veto by President Eisenhower as expected.
