The Senate this afternoon enters pon the second day of consideration pital. | £ the $60,000,000 rivers and harbors ill, with all signs pointing to a pro- racted fight over several of the projects proposed in it. ‘While the Senate, at the last session, agreed to vote cn the bill not later than next Tuesday, it was pointed out today by some opponents that the number of amendments which may be offered is not limited and each Senator is allowed 15 minutes on each amendment after Tuesday. Commerce Section Attacked. The section fnserted by the Senate commerce committee in the bill, passed by the House last session, providing that property owners along the Mis souri River should help meet the cost of the proposed improvement between Kansas City and Sioux City, lowa, was the principal object of attack terday. Senator WIill's also offered an amendment to the controversial Tlli nois River channel item to provide that the bill was not to be construed as authorizing diversion from Lake Michigan for the project. He said compromse conferences were going on, but that Illinois River advocates have not accepted the amendment. New Jersey Item Blocked. Action on the Senate committee's amendment to authorize improvement of the Hackensack River, New Jer- sey, at an estimated cost of $1,655,000, s blocked by Senator Willis. Senator Curtis of Kansas, the Re- publican leader, joined Senator Reed, Democrat, Missouri, in demanding that the House provisions for improvement of the Missouri River without cost tc the property owners be reinserted i “he bill. .

Drummond said a bill would be in- troduced soon to establish a Federal farm surplus board, with a revolving fund of $100,000,000, which it would loan to co-operative farm organiza- tions for the purpose 6f buying sur- pluses in non-perishable commodities for storage and disposal. Denouncing the McNary bill as an espousal of the principle of protective tariff. the Mississippi Senator de- clared the real way to relieve agricul- ture was by liberalizing the inter- mediate credit system to permit any farmer to borrow money at low inter- est to hold his crop for better prices. Under the Harrison bill the capital stock of the 12 intermediate credit banks would increased from $5,000,000 te $10,000,000, each with authority to make loans up to 10 times its capital stock. The interest rate would be fixed at 4 per cent and loans could be made on 85 per cent of the market value of the product. The present law re- qQuiring the intermediate banks to lend only to co-operate organizations would be broadened to permit the banks to make loans to individuals, firms and corporations with ware- house receipts or shipping documents as security. All Products Included. All agricultyral products are in- eluded in the bill, with a particular provision for cotton, authorizing loans on all grades, including low grades that are now barred from loans. “A great emergency now exists and every reasonable credit should be ex- tended by the Government to aid and assist,” Senator Harrison declared in a statement. “The purchasing power of the farmer's dollar today is around 65 cents, while that of other industries fostered bv the protective tariff is from $2 to $2.25. If the p-esent tariff system shou'd continue that disparity will continue to widen. Instead of the South and the agricultural West wanting to perpetuate it, as is done in the McNary-Haugen bill, those of every section interested in agricul- ture ought to make a common war against the system.” ————e— Almost 70,000 pedigreed silver foxes are meoctasad in Canada, T T LD o Nt B8 3 D LA R BT o e o A A e A L5l P U st 0 Ao W i e 00 AR o o A A Fresh and new!
