Description
Iowa Senator Harold Hughes said Saturday that the Agriculture Department sold nearly all the nation's feed grain reserves to big grain companies in late March with "unexplained haste" and on terms favoring the traders. Hughes asked the Government Accounting Office to investigate the transaction, including the rationale for depleting the reserves when bad weather was diminishing the upcoming corn crop. This is a 1971 photo
