Conferees Open Fight Monday on Farm Issue

Washington reports a conference committee from both chambers will meet Monday afternoon to reconcile the Senate and House farm bills. The House favors rigid price supports restored for three years, while the Senate pushes a framework with higher supports in some crops and includes a $1.2 billion soil bank program. President Eisenhower and Agriculture Secretary Benson oppose the Senate version, predicting a veto unless drastic changes are made. Senate conferees head Sen Ellender says the bill forms a solid base for a new farm program, while critics argue the administration’s foreign aid plan dwarfs farm support costs.
