Farm Measure Seal Back To Committee Senator Anderson Lashes Opponents Washington, Oct 5 — (UP) — Hen Clinton P Anderson, D„ N. | M„ charged touay that some ad- ' ministration groups are trying to force high farm *upports to gain eventual passage of the Brannan plan. Anderson made the charge as a bipartisan long-range farm bill went back to the senate agriculture committee for revision Advocates of high farm supports wrote in a provision to keep price supports at 90 percent of parity for so-called basic farm crops. The committee got instructions to report the bill back in 4H hours. Vice president Albeit W. Barkley twice cast the deciding vote . against the Anderson proposal for flexib.e price supports Barkley voted for rigid high suports. He said he had always urged them as < a senator, and added: "I cannot, change my position now." Anderson and other backers of t , flexible price supports staved off, almost certain defeat by getting, , their bill sent back to committee j last night. The vote to recommit was 41 to | i 29. It camo after hours of bitter i debate marked by sharp exchanges between Barkley In the chair and' Democratic tloor leader Scott W., . Luca*. It was the first open break between the two in the senate, j Wh n a repor.er pointed out . that the broken Demo'-ratic lines, along with Barkley's vote, left the i White House position on farm sup-!

I ports in doubt, Anderson said: "They want the Brannan plan They want high price supports and big surpluses so they can get the Brannan plan in 1052." "Do you think that's th< ir strategy'*' he was asked. "Certainly It is," replied the former agriculture secretary. The agriculture committee is considered heavily in favor of flexible price support*. Anderson and other opponents of rigid supports contend that flexible price supports will be an automatic curb on surpluses ba ! cause farmers will produce less. But agriculture secretary Charles! F Brannan does not agree with ! that approach. Anderson said the senate a final 21-37 vote for high price supports yesterday would cost the country |2,000.000,000 annually. President Truman told Anderson i at a White Hous • conference some ; weeks ago that he would sign the Anderson bill if congress passed ■ it. But the chief executive has made it clear he still wants the Brannan plan. COMPLETE (Cont. From Png* One) , reduced from 19 to 17 cents. The commission moved into the I circuit courtroom for the hearing on the Adams Central consolidated school budget Approximately 100 | people gathered tor the hearing j The commission reduced the voca-1 tional education fund of the con-1 aolidated budget from 16 to lu, cents, as required by law The ■ statute states that there will be levied a maximum of 10 cents for! such a fund, and the commission reduced the amount to comply with the statute.

Opinions front members of the delegation present, were also heard; both aides pro i , Rented their views, although the i number against the building fund, ' was in excess of the fund's pro-, , ponents.

He had broadcast the story that he had been assigned here by the navy to open a recruiting station. However, this story paled with the addition of each alias.
