Darrow said also that congress Calls Outlook For Farm Aid Up in the Air BBS agencies in Chicago and suburban Oak Park from 1932 to 1946. General Motors maintained that Emich's dealerships were revoked because of bad business practices, not because of any disagreement over financing.

Emich was represented by four lawyers.

He presented 24 witnesses and 700 exhibits. He argued his case for three weeks. Studied 1,100 Exhibits. General Motors, employing 17 lawyers, produced 203 witnesses and 400 exhibits. Fifteen weeks were consumed in the General Motors prsentation.

UP) A federal district court jury Thursday awarded treble damages of to a former automobile dealer who had sued General Motors Corporation under the antitrust laws.

The whole matter of price supports and there is no absolute certainty that the price support program which expires at the end of this year will be renewed. 2. Reorganization of farm programs with the possibility that the soil conservation service might be changed or its functions transferred to other agencies. While there is some talk that farm price supports might either be renewed for a year at the present 90 per cent of parity level or extended a year at a scale varying from 60 to 90 per cent, there is also the danger that sup ports might be dropped entirely, according to Darrow.

The senate proposals for. re vamping the soil conservation programs probably will recom mend transfer of the soil conser vation service to the land grant colleges although other legislative proposals seek to strengthen the position of the service as an independent agency, Darrovr said.

Limestone. Darrow addressed the. annual convention of the association at Hotel Kirkwood and pointed out that the action of congress will have a direct bearing on the agricultural limestone business since much of the money under the farm program goes for limestone and fertilizer.
