Benson Seeks More Authority
WASHINGTON, May 15 (JP) —Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T.
Benson stressed the high cost of federal farm aid in urging an
economy-minded Congress today to give him broader authority to,
set the level of farm price supports.

he added, there will be little progress toward solving the problems!
of surplus production. j
As present surplus stocks are erased, he said, the law calls for
raising price supports which “sets the stage for surplus No. 2” byj
encouraging fanners to grow more crops at the major change in;
the Eisenhower administration’s farm program—but it wasn’t to;
Benson’s liking. •
