Humphrey Opens Uphill Fight To Save Parity in Farm Bill
Washington (UPD Sen. Hu
bert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.)
today launched an uphill Sen
ate battle to rewrite an administrative-backed
farm bill
and preserve parity as the ba
sis of national farm policy.
Humphrey charged that trig
bill, with administration bless
ing, would "openly abandon
the objective of seeking to
bring farm prices and farm
purchasing power into closer
relationship with . . . the rest
of our economy."
In a speech of some 80
pages, prepared for delivery
today, Humphrey asserted the
measure was "the result of
submission to what is virtu
ally legislative blackmail
giving in to Agriculture Sec
retary Ezra T. Benson under
the fear of otherwise getting
nothing at all."
Chairman Allen J. Ellender
(D-La.) of the Senate Agricul
ture committee, leading
spokesman for Southern Dem
ocrats who favor the bill,
warned as debate opened
Wednesday night that unless
new farm legislation is enact
ed this year cotton and rice
planting allotments will be
cut drastically in 1959 and
thousands of farmers may be
"driven from the land."
Predicts Passage
Ellender predicted the meas
ure would be approved with
out major changes. He said
its major provisions would
prevent acreage cuts for rice
growers, offer cotton growers
a choice of relatively high or
moderately reduced allot
ments, and give corn growers
Touring Church
Members Killed
In Truck Mishap
Lone Pine, Calif. (DPD
Two members of a touring
church group were killed and
12 others were injured in a
truck accident Wednesday on

The California Highway Pa
trol said a 1951-model truck,
carrying 11 counselors and 17
high school students on a trip
sponsored by the Ithaca, N.Y.,
Westminister Foun d a t i o n,
went out of control on a curve
and skidded 200 feet. The
wooden enclosure on the back
was ripped off.
Dead Identified
The dead were identified
as Alfred Lee Klaer Jr., 15,
and Charles Darling, both of
Ithaca.
Medical aid was rushed to
the crash scene by air, and
ambulances from surrounding
communities carried the 12
injured to the Southern Inyo
hospital here. Many were in
serious condition.
The Highway Patrol said
the truck was driven by Floyd
Leslie Downs, 22, of Schenec
tedy, N.Y. A second truck
rushed to town to report the
accident.

Sen. William Proxmire (D

bill as a "fatal compromise
w i th . the administration's
dreadfully wrong policy." He
served notice he would join
Humphrey and others in seek
ing amendments to save the
parity principle, and raise
dairy and feed grain supports.
For cotton, ' rice and corn,
the bill abolishes the "fair
earning power" parity price
as the basis for government
price supports. Beginning in
1959 for corn and in 1961 for
cotton and rice, the parity
principle would be replaced
by support based on 90 per
cent of the past three-year
open market price,

Sen. Milton R. Young (R
N.D.) Wednesday night of
fered the first amendment to
the bill. He proposed a four
year extension of the national
wool act, now scheduled to
expire next March 31, with
price supports under the act
to be limited to 85 per cent of
parity.
Sen Frank Barrett (R-Wyo.),
a leading sponsor of the wool
legislation, indicated he was
prepared to accept the limita
tion. Under the act, growers
sell their wool in the open
market and get direct govern
ment supports to cover the
difference between market
prices and support levels.
