Flexible Price Supports Lose In Senate Committee
Washington June 24 the Eisenhower plan for flexible price supports faced an 8-7 defeat in the Senate Agriculture Committee. The House panel had already kept high supports for corn, cotton, rice, tobacco and peanuts. Len Young urged extension of fixed supports, while a key vote on Benson’s planting authority also occurred. The 1949 law may govern if the 90 percent parity system is not extended, with surpluses and stockpiles shaping the outcome. Veterans of Foreign Wars events in Baltimore opened with a parade and formal sessions set for tomorrow. Bees’ communication may use tones beyond simple language.

One-Year Tariff Extension Defeated In Senate Vote
The News reports June 23 1954 that a 15 percent tariff cut extension plan backed by 22 Democrats and one independent failed in the Senate after 39 Republicans rejected it with cross party support. The defeat suggested the Senate would likely approve the House one-year extension passed June 11, despite some Democrats calling the substitute an empty gesture. Easter’s date shows April 19 as the most frequent in the calendar.
