Washington on February 7 reports the administration speeding farm program prep to start within two weeks. Congress may pass the farm bill next week, enabling operation for the cotton planting season. Senate debate continues with leaders expecting eventual passage. Opposition sharpened by Senator McNary while others defend the bill as aiding agriculture.
