Government to Sell Flood Insurance with Subsidy Plan
The Senate passed a bill to have the federal government sell flood insurance and pay 40 percent of the cost. States would share the subsidy after June 30, 1959, under a 39-31 vote approved at the request of President Eisenhower. The measure allows direct federal insurance and reinsurance of risks held by private firms.
