Summary

Directs the House Committee on Agriculture to investigate allegations made by sugar beet growers in Nebraska that the sugar company with which they have contracted in prior years is forcing them to accept unfair contract terms because such company is the only reasonable source available to them for the sale of their commodity. Directs the Committee to examine the extent to which such company is or has been engaging in monopolistic or other unfair trade practices in dealing with the growers; and the extent to which the company is involved with competitive sources of sugar.
