Farmer Smith Fined For Wheat Quota Overplanting And Car Subsidy
William T. Smith of Big Flats New York was fined 321.84 dollars by the Chemung County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee for planting 26 acres in wheat last year, 7.1 acres over his 18.9 acre quota, while buying a 6100 Cadillac with a government subsidy for not planting corn. He met Senator Barry Goldwater in Washington after public protest, plans an appeal to the state review committee, and notes the wheat program is compulsory.
