This measure, already passed by the house, has-been before the senate for some time, serving as a parliament- ary vehicle for consideration of the equalization fee proposal which was put forward as a rider to it by Sen: tor McNary, Republican, Oregon, af er the house had voted down a simi- lar bill sponsored by Representative Hau Republican, Iowa, Acting after a bitter struggle in which the outconfe was not discerni- ble until the ballots were counted, the senate late yesterday defeated the ‘Nary rider by a vote of 45 to 39. Western proponents of the plan had obtained recruits among the southern Democrats, but not enough to over- come the opposition of eastern and other southern senators. Substitutes Offered Immediately a deluge of substitutes fell upon the chamber, some designed to save as much as possible from the »wreckage of the equalization fee pro- gram. but such of these as were acted upon before adjournment were de- feated. Although many remained to provide fighting material for today’s ‘ssion, opponents were confident they could clear the way to & vote on the marketing bill and continue the sen- ute’s farm relief activity to that un- less a surplus crop solution more to r economic liking should be of- fered. “Indus' ped forces that control the add ninistrations” were blamed for rejection of the equalization fee by George N. Peek, chairman of executive ‘committee of 22 ap- pointed by middlewestrn farm organ- » izations to work in Washington for enactment of the program. Charles it: Hearst, president of the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation, told the Axsociat- ed Press at Des Moines that the sen- ate’s action would ndt deter the agricultural organizations in their in- sistence that congress pass’ a_ re! bill eee, to the middlewest.
