Curtis Quotes Dear Bob Letter Demands More Facts
Senator Carl Curtis renewed his call for full public release of all Freeman McNamara correspondence on food prices and published the first Freeman to McNamara letter. He argues the letter shows tampering with commodity sales to depress farm prices and urges disclosure for farmers and ranchers. The letter to McNamara, dated January 22, 1966, outlines recommended steps to stabilize prices including shifting to European procurement, reducing domestic pork and beef servings, lowering canned fruit purchases, and delaying tomato products and corn purchases.
