Ellender Varns On Farm Program Washington U.R) Sen. Allen J. Ellender (D-La.), warn ed today that there ''won't be any" new farm program if President Eisenhower vetoes a pending bill calling for a re turn to rigid high price supports. Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. ' Benson said yesterday he would urge the President to veto the measure despite the fact that the Administration backed soil bank program is written into it. Ben son added that the President probably would veto the measure even if he didn't recommend it. But Ellender cautioned that a presidential veto would mean -'there won't be any farm bill." He said Congress couldn't over ride the veto and, at the same time, a new and separate bill containing only the soil bank plan couldn't be passed in time to give farmers any relief this year. Ellender said there isn't "any doubt" the Senate- will approve the pending bill and send it to the President despite veto threats. The House . approved a high support bill last year.
