Washington P The administration policy measure for social security received Senate Finance Committee approval Friday with two key amendments.

Major provisions from the House were retained, adding a voluntary annuity plan up to 100 dollars monthly and federal aid for the needy blind up to 15 dollars monthly with state matching. An La Follette amendment allowed states to permit private unemployment funds instead of state pools.

Wisconsin Dairy Farmers Seek 100000 Signatures for Boycott Petition
Wisconsin dairy leaders plan a petition drive seeking 100000 signatures from dairy farmers to press Wisconsin merchants to buy goods outside markets where state dairy products face restrictive legislation. The drive, led by Agricultural Commissioner J. Obeck and a committee including Marvin Smithback, C Murphys, W G Martin, and E L Jay, aims to contact farm organizations across Wisconsin and the Midwest and alert chambers of commerce upon signatures. New York regulations ban Wisconsin cream and cows from unaccredited herds, prompting the protest as a stance against market barriers rather than health concerns.
