NFO says county level efforts aid corn wheat markets
National Farmers Organization leader Frank Jones of Lodgepole says county NFO action improves corn and wheat marketing, stabilizes local markets with a Monfort deal in Greeley, Colorado, and blocks about 30 thousand bushels of wheat for sale above market. He notes about 500 hogs shipped biweekly under NFO contracts and urges coordinated marketing to raise producer prices. Congress faces a 30 June 1970 farm bill deadline and Coalition Farm Bill backing from NFO and 31 other groups.

Clark backs call for senators on housing bond limit
Sen Robert Clark of Sidney urged a special legislative session to raise Nebraska housing authority bond interest from 6 to 6.38 percent. Carpenter supporters sought a wider agenda as Sec. of State Marsh surveys all 49 senators while Holmquist cautions against implied endorsements. The housing program, stalled at about $20 million in bonds for 18 authorities, could resume if a session clears the rate cap and allows construction of 1,146 dwellings.
