Farm Budget Cuts Hit as House Proposes 32 Percent Slash

Secretary Clinton Anderson and Democratic lawmakers vow to fight, calling the plan harmful to soil conservation, price support, veterans’ aid, and low income families. The proposal would abolish the Agriculture Adjustment Administration by July 1, 1948, affecting payments to about 3.5 million cooperative farms and reducing farmer payments to roughly half of prior promises.
