He called price hikes temporary and warned that artificial increases create surpluses, market losses, and controls. Benson defended Eisenhower’s veto of restoring WWII era rigid supports and urged disposing of surpluses to build a sound basis for agriculture via flexible supports in the 1954 act.

Will Save By Desegregating
Oklahoma taxpayers will save at least one million dollars this biennium by desegregating schools, says Roy Emans, finance director of the State Department of Education.
