The heart of President Ken nedy's farm bill Is at stake. Including his proposals for tough new production controls for wheat and feed grains and dropping price support to low levels if farmers refuse to bc cept the controls. Less-Stringent Provisions The bill came out of the Senate Agriculture committee with surplus-cutting programs for wheat and feed grains that were not as stringent as those the administration wanted. The key votes were expect ed on amendments that would write the administration pro grams back Into the farm bill. Democratic leaders said they expected the amendments to pass by a narrow margin. They said it is time for farmers to realize they must either accept controls or give up high price supports. Other congressional news: Aidi Leaders of the Mouse Foreign Affairs commit t e c have lost hope that the United Nations bond issue can be tacked to President Kennedy's foreign aid bill. Informed sources said Republican lead ers were opposed to the move and apparently would be able to prevent It.

Franklin, Tex. -ll'PD- Dr. Joseph Jachimczyk, a Houston pathologist, planned to give his final report today of an autopsy 0'.' conducted on the body of an agriculture offi cial he thinks was murc?ered while investigating the Billie Sol Estes business empire. Jachimczyk said in a pre liminary report to the grand jury on Tuesday he felt Hen ry II. Marshall, 52, was killed lust year instead of commit ting suicide. He said he would make a final report today after completing studies of body tissue and other tests. An unimpeachable source told United Press Internation al Wednesday that investiga tors are now fully convinced that Marshall was murdered and that three suspects are being closely watched. He said Marshall may have been shot for revenge or to prevent detection. The grand jury has issued a subpoena for William Elli ott, head of the investigative division of the Agriculture Stabilization and Conservation service for this region, and ordered him to bring along his file concerning Estes' col ton acreage allotments. The question a grand jury here is trying to decide is whether a man could commit suicide by shooting himself five times with a 22-ealiber boll action rifle. Each shot would involve five separate hand motions. Or was Henry II. Marshall murdered? He was the head of the Produc tion Adjustment Department of the U. S. Department of Agriculture office in Texas. One of his duties was to look into cotton allotments, including those of Estes, now under federal and f)t a t e charges of fraud and viola tion of Texas' antitrust laws. Marshall's body was found last June 3 on the ground of his ran, eight miles north east of here. The rifle was nearby. A justice of the peace investigated and ruled it sui cide. Marshall was buried, and the case might have been forgotten by everybody ex cept members of his imme diate family when the Estes case broke. Wednesday. Texas Atty Gen. Will Wilson and Dist. Atty. Bryan Russ, both Oof whom arc here digging into the Marshall ystcry, issued a su'ioena for a Department of Agriculture report, writti in October of last year and dealing with Estes' farming enterprises. Whether Marshall furnish ed informationlor the report before his death has not been specified so far. But Secretary of Agricul i lure Orville Freeman has said the Estes case 9 as difficult to ; investigate because Marshall ' took so many answers to the ; grave with him. One witness before the j grand jury Wednesday was Manley Jones, funeral direc tor at Bryan, Tex., who pre pared the body for burial, j Previous to his grand jury ' testimony he had told re 1 porters: 1 "There is no doubt in my mind that Henry Marshall was I quite a struggle.
