Wallace Spars Corn Price Plan Draws Fire in Iowa
ENRY WALLACE voiced opposition to corn prices staying above one dollar a bushel at Bloomington. The remarks, made last Monday night, were seen as a blow to New Deal farm policy and could backfire politically as voters head to the polls next Tuesday. Also, union party leader L. M. Peet offered money to Koob to quit the race, a claim he alternately denied and confirmed, amid shifting public stances and party loyalties.
