Governor's cattle sale raises disease concerns in Iowa
In Palo, Iowa, L B Liddy of the agriculture department said Bang's disease infected cattle sold by Clyde Spry supporters during a recent debate. Liddy, representing Spry seeking reelection as secretary of agriculture, could not prove the governor knew of the sale. Opponent Lester Gillette, a Fostoria farmer, criticized the sale as conducted by the governor's hired hands.
