fight for passage of legislation re-
moving Federal taxes and restric-
tions from margarine. The House
Agriculture Committee killed the
measure Yesterday.
With the comment I'VE are not
through yet spokesmen for mar
9erine manufacturers said they

bill in the Senate and ask for its
consideration by the Senate Finance
Committee instead of the Senate
Agriculture Committee.

llcan, of Minnesota, head of a dairy

600 dairy farmers in the Nation
