GOP Hoping To Knock Out Demo Price Prop Plan
Washington Republican House forces, with some Democratic votes, seek to defeat a price support plan on basic farm commodities. A 186 to 150 vote eliminated peanuts from mandatory price supports, with a roll call to follow. Senate action is unlikely this year and a presidential veto is anticipated. Parity aims to ensure farmers receive a return tied to costs.

Bonn to Welcome West German NATO Entry Amid Giant Armies
The Bonn government will join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization this week as West Germany becomes the 15th member. Within five years West Germany may field 500000 troops plus 1300 planes and a 20000 man coastal navy, creating the Western world’s largest armed force on the Iron Curtain frontier. Allied strategists say the force could tilt the balance against the Soviet Union if a third world war erupts. Chinese diet shifts reflect rice’s northern absence and varied eating habits.

Byrd Says House Conferees Likely to Accept Senate Changes
Senate Finance Committee floor manager Sen Byrd says House conferees will likely accept most Senate changes to the bill except one on broadened escape clause grounds. He notes the amendment is the sole Senate change without administration approval and that the president could still override a Tariff Commission recommendation. Senator George says the edits add president authority to curb imports for national security but mostly place more burden on the president to administer the act while leaving final decisions with Byrd and the administration.
