Governor Ray signs strict gambling rules in Iowa
Governor Robert D. Ray signed a sweeping package tightening Iowa gambling law by capping 24 hour winnings at 50 dollars and banning high stakes games like blackjack and craps. The measures also require liquor licenses for gambling on premises, impose 25 dollar licenses, and align with federal motor vehicle inspection mandates. Additional bills address day care licensing, motorcycle registration increases, and private school aid limits while nine bills remained to be signed as the 1975 session neared its end.

Cornbelt acreage shifts temper farm outlook for 1976
U S agriculture data indicate modest corn acreage shifts in the Cornbelt with four top corn states including Iowa showing reduced plantings. Despite declines, nationwide corn plantings rise to 77.5 million acres due to last minute shifts from soybeans. ISU expert Wisner notes stronger harvest acreage, potential carryover gains if yields meet or exceed average, and a heavy role for feed use in shaping prices. Export prospects face weather and global stock challenges. Soybean plantings are down slightly with a 2 percent higher harvest area anticipated this year. JOLIET stock reports note cattle sales weak and hog prices up.
