Appropriations Committee
Is Sharply Critical Of
Agriculture Dept. Policies
WASHINGTON UB—The House
Appropriations Committee today
sharply criticized the Agriculture
Department’s farm policies. It
cut $272,566,860 from the depart
ment’s money requests for the
fiscal year starting July 1.
It recommended $3,692,839,757
in new appropriations for the de
partment while asserting a new
program is imperative to ease the
economic plight of the nation’s
farmers.
The committee particularly
questioned the advisability of con
tinuing the acreage reserve pro
vision of the soil bank program
and ordered a curb on future
commitments under it.
The committee action on the
agriculture bill brought to more
i than $1V£ billion the amount it
| has cut so far this year from
| appropriations requests submitted
i by President Eisenhower.
