Voice in Ceilings
Washington, Jan. t(P)
Claiming support of at least 42
senators, the senate farm bloc
agreed today to demand that the
secretary of agriculture be given
equal authority in fixing price
ceilings for any farm product or
article manufactured from farm
products.
Senator Bankhead (D.-Ala.)
raid "general agreement" on his
proposed amendment to the
price-fixing bill awaiting senate
action, Wednesday was reached
at a closed conference of sena
tors from agricultural areas held
In the senate agricultural com
mittee room today.
"No one was bound by our
session but it looks pretty good
for senate passage of my amend
ment," Bankhead told reporters.
The amendment will require
"prior approval" by the secre
tary of agriculture for any price
maximus established by the price
administrator under the proposed
legislation.
"This would give the secretary
a veto power over any farm price
ceiling," Bankhead said.
