Farm aid bill details grow to 252 million total

Senate debate notes authorized use of unspent balances from prior appropriations and Ellender says total would rise to 252 million for the new fiscal year. The largest farm money item totals about 928 million to offset CCC losses in price support and loan programs. CCC loans depend on acreage and marketing controls, with crop handoffs to the government if prices fall, or farmer repayment if prices rise. The bill also covers first year costs of the soil bank program if the President signs. CCC would gain 12 billion dollars for farm aid, with a further 2 billion expected before adjournment.
