UNS)— President Roosevelt’s price control and anti-inflation program .suffered a heavy blow in congressional action today. The senate joined the house in approving amendments to the one billion dollar commodity credit corporation bill prohobiting the payment of subsidies for the purpose of rolling back or holding down food prices as rhe heart of the administration price-vage stabilization program The action was taken over bitter protests of upporu rs of the adminis-‘ration program with fears being ex-oressed that abolition of subsidies would break the hold-the-line government policy and force upward revision >f wage contracts as well as skyrocketing food prices. The senate adopted the Aiken-Gil-lette amendment, which was supported by major farm organizations fighting the rollback policy, then it w'ent a step further in adopting the O’Ma-honey amendment prohibiting payment of subsidies without congressional sanction.

Themas E Dewey that midwestern grain, particularly com, should be made available to northeastern poultry producers and dairies ev en if it means slaughtering western hogs didn t sit so well with officials of some other states attending the 35tn national governors conference In fact Lt. Gov. Henry Hclt of North Dakota waxed ooetical in his complaint against Dewey, punning that “it couldn’t be a verse situation” He dashed off the following “Ode to Dewey” between sessions: There was a little piggie On a North Dakota farm. The U S D. A asked for him; He really meant no harm. And when the little piggie Was a’fattenin’ on the corn, They suddenly stopped feeding him And held him up to scorn.
