Two-way race develops for Iowa agriculture post
The upcoming November election will pit incumbent L. B. Liddy a West Des Moines area farmer and Ken Owen a Centerville farmer against each other for Secretary of Agriculture. Both candidates have strong backing and long Iowa farm ties. They clash on marketing and meat inspection, with Liddy touting department efficiency and a new Iowa Ag Building funded by a tonnage tax, while Owen urges farmer control and cost cutting. Recent Iowa Future Farmers achievements are also noted.
