Key Senators Weigh Benson Move to Cut Corn Supports
Washington key senators said they would consider Secretary Benson proposals to lower price supports and remove controls from corn. Senator Ellender urged the ideas, while Senator Aiken favored removing corn from controls though others fear a domino effect for wheat and cotton. Mundt opposed dropping supports to zero or low levels, urging 60 to 140 percent parity. All three see little chance for major farm legislation this session as corn remains a basic crop with 75 to 90 percent parity support.
