ESTABLISHED 1873 SENATE VOTES FESS GREDIT MEASURE DOWN Opponents Have Majority of 28 Votes—Substitute Pro- posals Rejected " MARKETING BILL PASSED Senate Amendments Make It Necessary to Send Bill to Conference iv — Washington, June 30.—(@)—With ‘surplus crop legislation crushed beneath the weight of economic and political controversy, the administra- tion's co-operative marketing bill stands today as the only farm retief measure likely to be enacted at the current session of congress. Struggling with the problem in a bitter 10-hour session yesterday, the senate late in the day voted down the Fess credits measure which, like ‘the co-operative m ill, had the avowed support of | President oolidge, by a majority of 28 votes a margin nearly five times as great as that by which the McNary equal- ization fee rider was defeated last week. ;) Then, in rapid succession, one sub- stitute rejected. With only a relatively small part of the senate membership re- maining in the chamber, the co-opera- tive marketing bill was passed without @ reord vote. Creates New Department This measure, which would establish a new division in the agriculture department to handle co-operative marketing problems and authorize an ‘appropriation of $225,000 for its work, already has been passed by the house, but because of senate amendments, including one eliminating naval stores from its provisions, it must go to conference between the two chambers for adjustment of these differences. Little delay in final enactment of the bill, however, is expected to result from these changes, and house lead- ers held today’s program open to expedite the progress of the measure toward the White House. Nothing else of major importance remains on their slate for action prior to ad- Journ: it, which they hope to bring about at the end of this week or early next week, ‘Practically no opposition to the co- operative marketing bill has develop- ed since it was passed by the house some weeks ago, the principal criti- cism of it by members of congress from agricultural seetions being that, in their opinion, it was inadequate to solve the farmers’ problems. q In the senate, its chief function was to serve as a vehicle for the 7 posals which provided the issues for sthe battle over surplus crop legis- lation. It was the “unfinished busi- ness” of the senate for three weeks before it was passed, but received scant attention in the flood of dis- While the senate was struggling with the farm relief program, the ipping board took action designed ure adequate transportation lities for grain exports this fall, voting unanimously to put 27 vessels ‘into operation at once and to re-|¥ condition 32 more for the trade in about a month. The action was taken, it wag an- nounced, after Secretaries Hoover and Jardine had appeared before the board at the suggestion of President Cool- idge to “call attention to the acute grain situation and the lack of suffi cient ships to transport grain to the markets of the world.” is THE OLD GIG NOT ENOUGH.

The money ix used in part in polit-| ica} campaigns, with a view to the! selection on a nonpartisan basis of} public officials who favor repeal of the dry ‘laws. we Supported Vare During the recent Pennsylvania Republican primary campaign, offi- cials of the association worked for Wm. 8S. Vare, the successful candi- date for the senatorial nomination, sending out a form letter asking for cont?ibutions from the 80,000 mem- j bers of the organization in that state. ‘Some mass meetings were held the purpose of aiding Vare and the expenses, amounting to $3,500, were paid by the association. The story of the organization’s ac- ities was told to the committee i its founder and head, William H.

Wheeler himself was in the front row in the crowd tha assembled to hear the wet leader for the first time but Chairman Reed of the committee satin a back seat. The chairman said it had been “slanderously said” that he was a and he wanted some one else to examine the witness. King Questions Stayton Under questioning by Senator King, how the parent organization and its state branches came into being to seek repeal of the 18th amendment and the Volstead act, but he declared they stood also for observance of the dry-stetutes so. long as they remained wr. Explaining the way the national and state organizations co-operated, he said that. state branch members paid the national organization the rate of 26 cents for cach member. At the outset in 1918 the association ‘had only a small income, he said, adding that he took the responsibility of making no repart. id ROCHESTER Classmate Narrowly Escapes Similar Fate Trying to Save Friend’s Life. the only way to fight whisl and . aged “drunkenness is >to canon light!

The temblor swayed the coast froin Santa Barbara southward to Long Beach. It came a year to a day after the quake which rocked Santa Bar- bara and it was there“that most of the damage was done yesterday. The one death was that of Cooling Orr, three-year-old boy who was kilied when a chimney toppled over on him while playing with other children in, his yard at Santa Barbara. Many of the cracks in buildings in Santa Barbara caused by last year’s quake and plastered over, were re- opened by the latest vibration. The damage in Santa Barbara con- sisted mainly in fallen chimneys, broken windows and temporarily dis- rupted telephone service. Santa Paula, Ventura and Oxnard, nearby towns, also were jarred by the quake, but no serious damage was reported. The shock occurred shortly after 3 p.m. It apparently did not reach far inland. There was a brief dis- turbance in the surf at Santa Bar- bara but there was no damage from it. In Los Angeles dishes were rattied| i and wii dows shaken.

Ingerson on Stickers A last minute development was the launching of a sticker campaign for Ralph Ingerson, Flaxton, as a candi~ date for the Republican gubernator- ial nomination. Ingerson already is the candidate for nomination by the Farmer Labor party but only a few persons have registered az such, He formerly was a leader in the Nonpar- tisan league and represents the wing of that party opposed to the nomination of Governor A.

The polls will close at 7 p. m. and it is expected that, in the event of a close race, it will be three days or more before the final result is known as many precincts in the unsettled , western part of the state are always slow in reporting. Realignment Possible Because of the numerous compli- cations which e entered into the campaign, politicans are interested in a possible realignment in the three congressional districts of the state. In the past the first district has al- ways been heavily Independent, the second district probably about equal- ly divided and the third district has been heavily Nonparti Arrangements have bee’ made by many newspapers of the state tu broadcast Associated Press election returns by radio. Some intetest was being displayed in the vote which may be polled by C. P. Stone, Fargo, candidate for the Republican senatorial nomination on a light wine and beer platform. North Dakota has been dry since statehood and previous efforts to make the prohibition guestion a suc- cesgful issue have been dismal fail- ures. Stone made what he calls an “un- der cover” campaign and predicts he receive 68,000 votes, enough 1o insure his nomination.
