Farm Prices Rise May Boost Eisenhower Veto Fight
Upward swing in farm prices through mid March boosts odds of a veto on a bill to freeze price supports at 1957 levels for a year. Agriculture Dept reports a 3 percent rise in farm product prices and a 1 percent rise in prices paid by farmers, marking the sharpest monthly gain since 1951 and narrowing the gap to pre 1958 levels.

Republicans fear political costs in November as they urge Eisenhower to reject the freeze bill.
