Senate approves 50,000 farm price support limit
Senate appropriations subcommittee backed a 50 000 ceiling on total price supports for any one farm or farmer as part of the farm fund bill. The House previously passed the same limit, while the Senate adopted a 35 000 figure as an amendment to a wheat bill. Russell insisted the cap applies to total 1960 crop loans per farmer and would require rules to prevent evasion.
