B—14 ¢ MOVE 0 ABOLISH FARM BOARD FALS Reduction From $500,000 to' $300.000 Also Defeated in House. By the Associated Press. ! The Fuller amendment to the inde-; pendent offices supply bill to kill the $500,000 appropriation for the Farm Board for the first six months of the next fiscal year was defeated today in the House. A proposal to cut the fund to $300,000 also was defeated. ' Board Called Farce. Fuller, Democrat, of Arkansas, who proposed abolition of the board said, | “I see no reason why we should ap- | propriate money for a board that prob- ably will be abolished by the next nd- ministration.” The appropriation would caver me expense of the board until December 1, 1933. “The Farm Board is more or less Al farce,” Fuller said. “I understand | nearly all the $500,000,000 provided by | Congress for it, has been lost.” Commission Called Useless. During debate on the bill in the House yesterday, two proposals affecting the Federal Trade Commission—one fio‘ abolish that agency and the second to' increase appropriations for its public| utility and chain store investigations— aroused a heated dispute. Abolition of the commission was pro- posed by Representative Patman, Dem- ocrat, of Texas, on the ground that it | was ‘“useless,” that “nobody reads its reports” and that the statute of limita- tions will expire before it makes any report on its investigations. On the other hand, Representative Cochran, Democrat of Missouri, served notice that he would offer an amend- | ment to the supply bill to give the commission $1.000,000 to continue its utilities and chain store investigations during the next fiscal year. Incomplete Report Made. ‘The commission sent to the Senate an incomplete report on its chain store inquiry. It showed that a representa- tive group of stores covering a period | of from 11 to 22 years ended in 1930, had net retail sales aggregating $36,- 757,966,581 on which the gross profit | ‘was $9,826,381,440 or 26.7 per cent. The House Appropriation Committee cut $599,000 off the budget estimate for the commission next year. This left $510,000 or $956.500 less than the ap- propriation for this year. DETECTIVE LEAVES TO GET PRISONER ‘Washington Man Surrenders in New Jersey on Charge of $500 Theft From Chest. Detective N. L. Hodkinson left for Absecon, N. J., today to bring back John A. Scruges, 29, of the 1700 block of DeSales street, who surrendered .to police there yesterday with the ex- planation he was wanted here for lar- ceny of $500 from the Community Chest. Scruggs, according to Associated Press dispatches from Atlantic City, gave him- self up to Police Chief Talley of Ab- secon. After being questioned exten- sively by the chief, Scruggs was com- mitted to the Mays Landing, N. J., jail by Magistrate A. J. Craven, to await the arrival of Hodkinson. ‘The $500, according to information given police by Elwood Srteet, Chest director, was taken from the receipts of a dinner given at the Wardman Park Hotel by representatives of the charity group. It was covered by in- surance. Scruggs, according to police, was ar- rested in PFebruary, 1927, on complaint of George E. Hanson, agent for the United States Steamship Co., who ac- cused him of stealing $450. The money, together with a number of checks, was given Scruggs to be deposited in a bank, Hanson said. Scruggs, it was said, was sentenced to five years' imprisonment, but was paroled. He is sald to have a wife and ehild here. { AME DUCK IS POSSIBLE LA FOLLETTE OPPONENT fichafer, House Member for Eight Years, Expected to Seek Seat in Senate. By the Associated Press. Political wiseacres see a lame duck ‘Wisconsin Representative as a likely opponent of young Bob La Follette in the Republican senatorial primary out in Wisconsin next year. There are several lame ducks in the ‘Wisconsin delegation, but the man the prophets have in mind is John C. Scha- fer of Milwaukee, one-time locomotive engineer. Schafer was beaten last Fall, after eight years of service in ¢he House, by Raymond Cannon, Milwaukee Demo- crat. He is non-commital on his future political intentions, but those familiar with State politics believe he is putting himself on record in preparation for a tilt with Senator Ll Follette.
