Senate Prepares
For Crucial Vote
On Farm Proqrarns
Washington - IUP1) - The Sen.
ate prepared for crucial votes
today on (arm production con
trol programs which adminis
tration leaders say would save
$4 billion or more In the next
four yeara.
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. Backers of the
UN bond bill had believed
attaching it to the foreign aid
program would increase its
chances in the llou.se.
Taxes: The House Ways and
Means committee Wednesday
approved a bill that would
repeal the 10 per cent tax on
railroad and intercity bus
tickets and cut the airline
ticket tax to 5 per cent. The
provisions were included in
legislation that would retain
for another year temporary
taxes that yield $4.3 billion a
year in revenue. The commit
tee delayed the effective date
I of the rail and bus travel tax
repeal until Jan. 1.

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
