mean a drop in parity prices of
about 20 per cent for peanuts, 15
per cent for wheat. Id per cent
for corn, and 5 per cent for
cotton, agriculture officials said.
OTHER PROPOSALS
The message also called for:
1. A new price support program
for wool which would adopt a con
troversial feature of the 111-fated
Brannan farm plan which Congress
rejected in 1949. The government
would allow prices to seek their
own:level in a free market. Grow
ers would be paid a direct subsidy.
2. Elimination of mandator}'
price support for tung nuts and
honey. Faim law now requires
support a* levels ranging from SJ
to 90 per cent of parity.
1. Repeal of a congressional ban
on price-propping programs for
Irish potatoes.-He did not ask for
a return to mandatory price sup-.
ports.
4. Continuation of the flexible
price support, program which the |
law now requires for dairy prod
ucts. It stipulates support must be
set between 15 and 90 per cent of
parity, but neither the Truman or
the Eisenhower administration has
ever set the support level below
W per cent.
5. For Soybean, cottonseed, and
flax, the President recommended
no new tagtalattoh. He took . the
same position with respect to oats,
barley, and grain sorghums.
5. The President said mandatary
supports are ill-adapted to meat
