School Problem Still Unsolved After Monday Council Debate
City officials spar over the high school site and dual system plan. The council favored referring the issue to the school committee with a 10 to 5 vote, while criticism of cooperation and stalled action dominated the session.

Eisenhower Accepts Farm Bill Compromise With Soil Bank
Washington reports House-Senate conferees reached agreement on a new farm bill acceptable to President Eisenhower. The measure includes a $1.2 billion soil bank program to cut surplus production, an 8 percent rise in small grain price supports, a two price plan for rice, and higher corn acreage. It raises the cotton allotment slightly and protects certain farmers from strict acreage rules while dropping several controversial provisions.
