With farm prices generally head ed downward, there is every indi cation that congress may take up the question of price supports, looking toward a 100 per cent of parity support schedule instead jrt the flexible system as now in ef fect. There is every indication that this congress will be unable to complete its duties before the na tional convention, which starts at Chicago July 7. Therefore there is plenty of talk that since con gress must come back to finish its job anyway, it might as well tackle *he tough farm price* prob lem and not wait for the next es- sion in January.

June 8.—A thorough investigation of alleged irregulari ties in the veteran's on-the-farm training program was launched last week by a state department of education committee appointed by Governor Byrnes.

The investigation was begun af ter the veteran’s administration advised the governor of “wholesale irregularities” in Dillon county. It was reported that some in structors had made false reports of their work and travel for which they were paid and that a number of trainees have admitted accept ing federal payments while engag ed in occupations other than farm training. The training is supervised by the state department of education in cooperation with the veterans ad-' ministration and monthly subsis tence to trainees amounts to $97.50.
