COTTONAID BILL RUSHED IN SENATE Supporters Hope to Send Pool Plan to White House This Week. By the Associated Press. Supporters of the plan for raising cotton prices by offering shares in & huge Government pool to Southern| farmers, who cut production, rallied to- day to push the bill through Congress | so as to reach the President before Sat- | urday. The House passed the measure yesterday. The cotton plan, allowing planters who cut their 1933 acreage to partici- pate in the pool, was barely squeezed through the House under a heavy at| tack by Republicans. Smith Seeks Action. Senator Smith, Democrat, of South Carolina, its sponsor, planned today to | ask early Senate approval of House amendments and send the bill to the White House. President Hoover's atti- tude is not known. f In the House debate, Republican Leader Snell contended it was a bill for | the relief of banks, while Democrats | characterized it as “the last chance to | do anything for the cotton farmer.” The final vote was 188 to 183. | Briefly, the bill puts in the hands of a six-member board in the Agriculture Department all Government-financed cotton. This includes the 1,500,000 Dbales owned by the Farm Board's cotton | co-operative and 710,000 bales, held by the Agriculture Department as collateral on seed and crop production loans. Would Give Options. Growers agreeing to cut their 1933 cotton output at least 30 per cent would receive an option on a share of the pool equivalent to their reductions. The op- tion would carry the price at which the cotton is procured by the board from the other Government agencies. The | Reconstruction Corporation would fur- nish necessary funds. The board is directed to dispoge of the cotton by March 1. 1935. The option holders would benefit by any price in- crease after deducting the carrying charges. The Senate bill would have increased the pool by the amount of relief cotton still held by the Red Cross, buying it back at market prices. This was elimi- | nated in the House to meet a strong | opposition demand. The Senate bill_also would have di-| rected the Farm Board, in settling its accounts with the American Cotton Co- | Operative, to obtain a transfer of the iCo-Operative assets. This, too, was| eliminated in the House. | DEMOCRATIC VETERANS HOLD INAUGURAL DINNER| Benator Thomas and Representa- tive Blanton Lead List of Speakers.

DALADER VTR ONCREDTSISUE Premier Accorded Comfort- able Majority, Though So- cialist Leader Resigns. By the Associated Press. PARIS, March 1—Premier Edouard Daladier's government was accorded & comfortable majority in Parliament early today in getting through provi- sional credits for this month. His government survived the same issue that brought the downfall of his predecessor, Joseph Paul-Boncour, last January 31. | The Senate adopted the measure by | 200 to 83 after the Chamber of Depu- | ties passed it, 334 to 250. The session brought the resignation of the veteran Leon Blum as leader of the Socialist party, however, because of defections of some of his force from supporting Daladier. Socialists bolts from the majority bloc caused over- throws of both M. Paul-Boncour and M. Herriott in the past two and one-halt months. ‘The Daladier government’s finance bill provides economies and new taxes totalling $187,000,000 including $20,000,- 000 in economies, military credits and salary cuts for functionaries which will be incorporated in the 1933 budget. It provides also for reductions in gov- ernment employes’ wages on 8 sliding scale, beginning with salaries’ of $480 yearly, with further exemptions for married men. This was one of the leading issues in the debate. The clock was stopped at midnight so the chamber could continue deliberations after the adjournment hour. About 20 Socialists broke party dis- cipline and voted against the bill. LONG INAUGURAL RIDE T0 END LATE TODAY Toby Cook, 7, to Be Given Recep- tion on Capitol Hill by Georgia Delegation.
