Farmers confirm wheat vote split amid farm policy clash
Fifty years ago farmers rejected Kennedy’s wheat plan with 151 yes to 13,675 challenged votes. The 47.79 percent yes vote left Congress to choose between a new wheat program or a stopgap, with prices expected to fall and surpluses rise if no action is taken. The Farm Bureau hailed the result as a bright day for agriculture while warning against a shift toward long term supply control. Charles Shuman urged Congress to act soon, though urban Democrats warned of strong opposition to new farm subsidies.
