WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
victory of Republican Mark An
drews in a special Congression
al election in North. Dakota this
week may force the Kennedy
administration closer to -open
support of a new voluntary
wheat program.
Last May farmers voted in a
nationwide referendum to re
ject the administration's man
datory wheat control program
for their 1964 crop.
North Dakota farmers sup
ported the program more
strongly than growers in most
other areas. About 65 per cent
of the state's wheat producers
voted in favor of the plan.
Critic of Plan
This week, however, voters
in North Dakota's 1st Congres
sional District elected Andrews,
who criticized the administra
tion plan and advocated a vol
untary control program.
Administration advisers have
been reporting recently that
wheat farmers generally still
oppose mandatory controls and
that they are likely to vote
against such a plan again if
another referendum is held.
Agriculture Secretary Orville
L. Freeman has not endorsed
any move as -yet for a new vol
untary wheat program. He has
been dropping broad hints, how
ever, that he would back such
a program if wheat farmers
generally can agree on some
new plan.
Republican Rep. Don Short of
North Dakota said today that it
was hard to interpret the spe
cial election in terms of what
it foreshadows for agricultural
policy in the 1964 general elec
tions. .Vol an Endorsement
Short said, however, that the
election "certainly didn't indi
cate any endorsement of the
Kennedy-Freeman policy."
Sen. Quentin N. Burdick, D
N.D., said he did not think
farm policy was much of an is
sue in the special election. Sen.
Milton R. Young, R-N.D., said
he did not believe the election
provided a clear-cut test on
farm policy.
Sen. George McGovern , D
S.D., offered another interpre
tation. He said the Democratic
candidate in the special elec
tion, John Hove, was a politi
cal unknown running against a
widely-known Republican. The
fact that the Democrat HiH
well as he did showed substan
tial support for the Democratic
program, McGovern said.
