Want Seats On Ag Committee

WASHINGTON (7?-At least no new Democratic members of the House Want assignments to the Agriculture Committee, but there are no Democratic vacancies on it. The two are J. Floyd Breeding (D-Ras) and Terry McGovern (D SC). Breeding won the House seat relinquished by Clifford Hope, ranking Republican on the committee, McGovern defeated Harold 0 Lovre (R-SD), a member of the committee for several years. Since there are no Democratic vacancies, it seems doubtful that either will be assigned to the committee, unless some of the present members shift to other committees. Both Kansas and South Dakota are big farm states and members from these states would be welcome on the committee. Several Republicans also are after places on the committee, there being some Republican vacancies. Those seeking this committee include Weaver of Nebraska, Avery of Kansas and Gross of Iowa. Wint Smith of Kansas also may be interested. Since Hope has left Congress and Kansas has no representative on the Agriculture Committee, Avery of Smith might have the best chance. Weaver and Gross come from strong farm states which already are represented, Harrison of Nebraska and Hoeven of Iowa are present Republican members. While there are seldom two members from the same state on a committee there are exceptions. Committee assignments will be made soon after Congress convenes Jan. 3. A small turkey may be stuffed and roasted on a rotisserie (electric). Some cooks like to use moderate heat for the first third of the roasting time, high heat for the next third, and moderate heat again until the third is done.
