This the House members refused to do. The House group said the farm bill passed at their side of the Capitol had the approval of President Hoover and that he would veto any measure con- taining the debenture section. They argued it was useless to continue any negotiations so long as the debenture plan was not sidetracked. Meet Again Tomorrow. Senator McNary of Oregon, chairman of the Senate agriculture committee, and ranking member of the conference committee, said the committee would meet again tomorrow. Senate conferees argued that if the House really was strenuously opposed to the debenture plan leaders there should have no hesitation in ordering a sep- arate roll call vote on it. House members, however, took the position that the House regarded the adoption of the debenture plan by the Senate as an invasion of House consti- tutional rights and to consent to a vote on it would amount to an acknowl- edgement that the Senate had the right to initiate the plan.
