“i * 43 et PAGE EIGHT CONGRESS WILL - WORK ON FARM AID BILLS SOON McNary-Haugen Measure Must * Strive For Favor With Many Similar Bills Washington, Jan. 11.—(%—Try. outs will begin soon of bills for which a aating place is sought in farm relief efforts of the seventieth congress, with McNary - Haugen measure forced to justify itself in committee hearings again before winning the star role. Several aspiring understudies to the McNary-Haugen measure emerged early in the session. The merits of all will be examined close- ly by the senate and house agricul- ture committees before any choice is recommended. As chairman of the senate committee, McNary of Oregon will direct the hearings in that body. The whip hand is held in the house committee by Haugen of Towa. i tabla on behalf of sells int protege is not expected, how- ever, since both committees are pledged to give equal consideration to all farm relief propositions. It is likely that the McNary-Haugen bill will be scrutinized most closely, be- cause of its passage in the senate and house last session. i Some agreed Made is Some aspects of the prospective act have been revised, following the criticism accorded it by President Coolidge in his veto message. Lim- itations placed upon the president in appointment of the federal farm |, Which he said appeared un- constitutional, have been cut out. Application for the relief provisions only for producers of cotton, wheat, corn, rice, tobacco and swine also have been eliminated, and pro- ducers of all agricultural commodi- ties would be aided instead. Presi- dent Coolidge said that the former bill “inescapably” contemplated “that farmers in some regions should be penalized for the benefit of those in other regions.” The fundamental proposal of the McNary-Haugen program, however, remains the same equalization fee to th the president objected most strenuoysly. It was principal- Jy this innovation that ident lidge said would “merely aggra- vate conditions which are the cause of“the farmer's present distress.” Summed up, the white house criti cism which rejected the McN: Haugen bill told the senate that “ «is impossible to see ho-. this bill e In the intervening time -no farm relief program has been evolved which seems certain to ‘win favor both at the capitol and athe white house. That is why the forthcoming hearings are being Watched closely by all interested in the problem, who wonder just what | Hy, he grand finale will hold and when will matcrialize. ‘ Other Farm Aid Bills ong bills aiming at farm re- ve four pricipal senate bills ven house bills, several of embody some_ general , fea- £ the last session.
