CIA blamed for farm woes by ex agent McGehee
Former CIA man Ralph McGehee links U.S. farm problems to CIA world operations. He argues multinational agribusiness exploit labor in countries with toppled governments and says corporate control harms American workers and farmers. He cites covert actions, budget focus, and a shift in U.S. policy as cause and calls for better alignment with stated goals.

Regents urge funds to pay off state university bonds
The State Board of Regents urged the Legislature and Gov. Branstad to allocate funds to cover tuition replacement bonds for three state universities to avert tuition increases. They warn current budgets fall short of bond needs by about 3 million dollars this year, and Branstad’s next-year plan is 3.7 million short. Regent Harris and ISU president Parks oppose diverting tuition to bond payments, citing building hazards and a desire to protect instruction funding. The board also discussed WOI TV sale timing as part of ISU plans to boost biotechnology research.
