Wheat Crop Forecast Signals Higher Surpluses in 1957
Washington The Agriculture Department forecast a 1957 wheat crop of about 971 million bushels, enough to increase surpluses despite the Soil Bank program. Production is about 21 million bushels above market needs, with current reserves near 960 million bushels. The report notes delays in planting and wet conditions for corn and soybeans, but favorable moisture and crop development elsewhere support a large total output.

Chessman Wins Another Review
Supreme Court rules California must not execute Daryl Chessman pending further constitutional review. The 5 to 3 decision voids an imminent death sentence, with Justice Harlan stating that a valid appeal by a guilty man cannot be dismissed as too late. Dissenters Douglas and Burton object to the ruling while noting due process concerns. Chessman, once called the red light bandit, has spent years under death sentence for kidnapping for robbery and related crimes in California.
