Parity Prices.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11 (U. PJ. —Farm state senators generally expressed dissatisfaction today with
Byrnes’ opposition to changes in farm parity formulas and his injunction against further unauthorized price increases. They indicated that they would press even more vigorously to write
labor costs, including that of the farmer himself. The administration also probably is headed for other fights in congress over its new anti-inflation and manpower programs. There was general approval of Byrnes’ assertion that the war labor board’s “little steel” wage formula would remain unchanged, but sharp criticism of overtime payments for workers being ordered to a 48-hour work week,
