Hearings on farm program mark a national vote August
The House Ag Committee will hear farmers in key regions as Congress debates farm policy before the 1954 end. August 14 voters will decide if wheat quotas apply to farms over 15 acres with 90 percent parity price support for quota abiding growers. Non cooperators face 50 percent parity with no price support. Acreage allotments hold at 62 million, a 21 percent cut. House action also shifts mail costs from agencies, while federal employment fell in 1953. Nebraska visitors to the office included Mrs. Clara Berner, Miss Muriel Berner, Roy Berner, and Don Carlberg.
