Former Weigher Says Boss Urged Cheating Farmers
A former grain weigher John Leese testified before a senate subcommittee that his Davenport Iowa employer Ferruzzi and Co urged him to misgrade corn to cheat farmers. Leese quit after being offered to undergrade grain, prompting him to report the issue to the Employment Security Commission. About 60 farmers attended, as Clark’s hearings sought complaints on cheating in grain weighing and grading. Federal investigators linked similar thefts to New Orleans exports, while Governor Ray urged cooperative regulation of grain inspections between states and the federal government.
