Wheat support cuts evoked in Senate debate
Senator Young urged Congress to raise next year's wheat price supports after Benson set 1958 at 1.78 a bushel, down from this year. Mundt and Thye warned declines could lower farm prices. Thye sought parity or higher levels amid strong export and soil bank programs. Some senators criticized the timing of the announcement after the Easter recess.
