 for increased costs such as farm labor) parity prices and comparable prices for any agricultural com- modity shall be determined as au- thorized by existing law but shall include all farm labor"
 Carries Provisions
 Thomas said the amendment as submitted to his group also carried provisions defining farm labor as including that contributed by a farmers family, and requiring that wage rates used in the computation be the general average for hired farm labor. The subcommittee, how ever, decided against including the additional provisos, he said.
 Asked whether the amendment was not directly opposed to Presi- dent Roosevelt's demand for no change in the parity formula, Thomas said:
 ''It's just a suggestion as to what we dane. That's all the bill is - a suggestion. There is nothing man. datory in 1t.
 It was pointed out that the amendment said that parity prices shall" include farm labor.
 Shall means may" Thomas re- piled.
 At present, parity is that price for a farm commodity which gives the the same purchasing power that the sale of the commodity would have given him in the years l909-l9l4. By including farm labor costs in the computation of parity, prices necessarily would be higher.
 Thomas said that the farm rep had pointed out to his group a 'loophole in the admins tration bill big enough to drive the capitol through" It was, he said, the failure to regulate utility rates.
 Other subcommittee members are Sens. Charles L. McNary, R., Ore, George W. Norris, Ind, Neb., and John H. Bankhead D., Ala.
 The full agriculture committee will be asked to give its support to the amendment at meeting to- morrow, Thomas said.
 Administration officials we're hopeful, meantime, that they would be able to beat the farm bloc on the price issue.
 No one is discounting the possi- bility that 1t will take a momen- tous struggle to get the bill through congress in the desired form by the presidents deadline-a week from Thursday.
 House debate begins on a similar measure tomorrow and final vote Is not expected in either the senate or house until late in the week.
 The confidence of senate admin stration leaders apparently stem
