Surplus Wheat Problem Sparks House Debate
Washington June 10 The House opened debate on rival Democratic and Republican plans to cut wheat production amid a bumper crop forecast that could add hundreds of millions more surplus bushels to the 2 1 2 year supply. Storage costs run 500 000 a day and taxpayers hold three billion dollars in surpluses. The Democratic plan would raise price supports to 90 percent of parity and cut planting allotments 25 percent for 1960 and 1961. The GOP plan would maintain price supports and acreage floors but let small farmers vote on whether to accept the program, risking a drop in supports from 75 to 50 percent of parity if adopted. Other items include a Compromise life insurance tax hike near 60 percent, hearings on higher government bond rates, and Strauss nomination debates.
