Senator Kenneth S. Wherry announced plans to introduce a resolution to create a permanent Senate committee to study the meat situation, focusing on feeding, marketing, and distribution of cattle and hogs.

Committees to Pass On Loans To Veterans
Veterans advisory committees set up with county farm agents under the GI bill to judge guaranteed farm loans up to 2000 dollars. The aim is to prevent foreclosures by vets and ensure loans are prudent. Hines warns inflated farmland prices may hinder finding reasonable properties and says only veterans able to operate farms will be approved. A joint loan by multiple veterans is allowed but guarantee not to exceed 50 percent or 2000 per veteran. If defaulted, debtors remain separate.
