Eisenhower calls for a sensible farm program overhaul
President Eisenhower urged Congress to overhaul the federal farm program to be sensible and economically sound not political. He proposed new legislation with a softer tone and invited alternatives. He warned that delay worsens outcomes and cited daily $1.5 million government spending to stabilize wheat prices. He floated payments in kind from crop surpluses for soil bank participants and an expansion from 28 to 60 million acres. The message reflected farm-state protests and signals the issue will be pivotal in the 1960 elections.
