Still See Hope For President's Farm Program
Washington sources say the American Farm Bureau Federation remains confident the Eisenhower farm plan will survive Congress despite a Senate Agriculture Committee setback. The committee approved a one year 90 percent parity price supports extension by eight to seven, while the House acted similarly. Farm Bureau predicts a House majority to oppose rigid supports, with 165 to 175 in favor of one extension and 248 to 252 against. The group notes past votes against the Ellender wool bill amendment as a sign senators resist extending rigid supports, though the overall forecast remains uncertain.
