Board of Control asks 1963 64 budget increase
The Iowa Board of Control will request $23,043,000 per year for 1963-64, about 6.6 percent above current funding. The plan covers operating expenses with 3 percent salary raises and a 10 percent rise in inmate population, while capital requests are unlikely to exceed last session’s 6.6 million. A top priority is a security dormitory near Fort Madison Penitentiary to house about 100 prisoners assigned outside the walls.

Early Success Claimed by NFO In Holding Action
CORNING Iowa UP I A 16 State farmers marketing moratorium began with better than expected results. NFO president Oren Lee Staley said terminal markets lowered early receipt estimates as post holiday deliveries failed to arrive. The organization reports actual deliveries were well under revised figures as the holding action to withhold cattle hogs sheep corn and soybeans from markets aims to pressure higher prices. Staley downplayed any effect from a railway tie up on livestock markets.
