Farm Group Asks Price Control Yow In Demo Platform IMIILADKI.PHIA, July 8. - Th American Farm Bureau Federation asked the IVmocrtic party yesterday to pledge a new governmental attack on the prob lem of skyrocketing prices. Opening hearings on the Democrat ic platform, H. E. Slusher. a member of the board of the powerful farm organiza tion, proposed specifically that congress set up a national mone tary commission to find ways of stabilizing prices. "A democracy of free enter prise cannot flourish and may not even survive continuing fluc tuation of the general price level," said Sltisher. He is presi dent of the Farm Bureau in President Truman's home state of Missouri. Thus the farm leader brought up an issue with which Demo crats hope to win votes in Novem ber. Mr. Truman and other Democratic leaders have blamed the Republican Congress for swelling prievs since wartime controls were dropped. The Democratic platform draft ers got off to a quiet, friendly start. But beneath it was an air of expectancy Sharp and per haps bitter battles aptieared to be shaping up over civil rights and labor planks. lT. S. Senator Francis J, Mvers, of Pennsylvania, chairman of the 18-memtier committee, told news men Mr. Truman undoubtedly wiii be consulted on the document he fore it is presented to the party's convention next week.
