Flexible Price Supports Ike Farm Proposals Meet Cold Reception
Dark storm clouds gathered on Capitol Hill as President Eisenhower prepared to present a flexible price guarantee based farm plan to Congress. Only two senators voiced warm support, with many noncommittal or opposed. Aiken said the aim is a sound long term program, away from wartime fixed supports, while Anderson urged farmers to move away from rigid controls. Eastland called the proposal dead on arrival and Clements warned of rough weather. Russell questioned the sliding scale and suggested it won’t meet objectives. House aide Albert doubted it would go far. The idea, championed by farm leaders across parties since 1948, faces mixed reception as debate begins.
