Political Clash Over Parcel Post Limit and Local Beans Boom
The House defeated a plan to raise the parcel post limit to 100 pounds by 40 votes with Republicans largely opposing and Democrats led by Dill in support. The issue widens into a broader fight between popular privileges and corporate favors as campaigns loom, while the Colville region pursues a bean venture funded by D M Ferry and local alfalfa education unfolds alongside broader national debates.
