WASHINGTON, Oct. 29—(—
Chairman Marvin Jone* (D-Tex) of
the House Agriculture Committee,
indicated today special provision
probably would be made for the dai-

being drafted.
So far, however, the committee
has not discussed individual ’ farm
industries, leaving that to sub-
committtes to work out. Jones hint-
ed that by U very nature, dairying
would necessitate special treatment
in the legislation the special session
of Congress will consider next
month.
