Production had been excessive, all right. Outlays for dairy-product supports jumped 20% this year. Piled up in federal storage depots as of Dec. 1 were 12,500 tons of dried milk, 17,000 tons of butter, 89,000 tons of cheese. But politicos from dairy-farm states predictably joined Republican Burdick in bipartisan booing at Benson's announcement. ''A shocking injustice!" cried Wisconsin Democrat William Proxmire.
