Senate panel mulls new food stamp plan with spending hikes
Senate Agriculture Committee opened discussions on a new food stamp program. Chairman Ellender opposes free stamps for the poorest families and seeks higher spending levels, aiming for 750 million next year and 1.5 billion in 1971, while Nixon proposes 661 million and 1.6 billion thereafter. McGovern says Nixon’s plan is far short of needs. The session, closed to reporters, marks the first step toward floor action. House Chair Poage hints at attaching any Senate bill to farm subsidy extensions for political leverage. Ellender vows to oppose free stamps and support eligibility rules kept by state welfare laws rather than federal standards.
