G O P Fights Farming Bill In Congress Comeback
Washington June 23 A group of Republicans girded for a fight against a Truman era farm program trial run. A House agriculture subcommittee approved 6 to 3 a new farm bill to allow Brannan to experiment on three crops in 1950 with a production payment plan. It would repeal the 1948 Aiken law, create a new parity income system and set crop price supports near 100 percent of the parity standard.
