RELIEF 15 PLANNE Bongress Leaders Confer at White House on Bonds for Refinancing. ‘(Continued From First Page.) few alternations that do not have White House approval. Hundreds of amendments have been drawn by Senators who seek to revise the provisions in the farm relief bill for Investing unprecedented powers in the Becretary of Agriculture for controlling erop surpluses. In addition Senator McNary of Oregon, Republican leader, said he would ask for hearings, a move which would delay the speed with which the emergency measure has been rushing throughr the legislative mills. ‘The bill would apply to_wheat, cot- ton, tobacco, corn, rice, hogs, cattle, sheep, milk anq its products. The Sec- yetary of Agriculture would attempt to balance production and consumption by agreements with farmers to reduce their output in return for direct, pay- ments or rentals from lands taken out of production. The payments would come from pro- cessing_taxes levied on the commod- ities. Another part of the plan would give cotton planters the privilege of participating in a pool of Government- ©owned cotton. Among those demanding revision was Chairman Smith of the Senate Agricul- ture Committee who planned -to offer & substitute bill today. McNary said he would propose that the pending measure be limited to wheat and cot- ton unless Smith brings in something entirely different. House Passes Farm Bill. ‘The House passed the farm bill after #wo days of debate which revealed strong 'eriticism, but the Democratic ma- chine'’s great power put it across. Seventy-three Republicans, 24 Demo- erats and 1 Farmer-Laborite voted in opposition. Thirty-nine Republicans and four Farmer Laborites joined the Democratic majority in favor. While the House chamber echoed Wwith debate it was made known that within the week the administration would have ready its second step in the farm field—a plan fer refinancing agri- culture and home mortgages at lower rates of interest and amortization. Senator Robinson, the Democratic leader, said he planned to have this new administration plan at- tached to the relief bill in the Senate. ‘Although this would require further consideration of the present bill by the House, it is calculated to save time in enacting the whole program. Charges of “Sovietism” and “Social- ism” were hurled at the measure in the House. Representative Bierman tried to have It returned to the Agriculture Commit- tee, which spent two days on the bill behind closed doors, but was defeated, 197 to 89. Charges Unconstitutionality. Beck, Republican, of Pennsylvania, tharged unconstitutionality, but the other view was taken by Chairman Sumners of the Judiciary Committee, who conceded, nevertheless, that the bill was “radical.” Wadsworth, Republican, of New York, former Senator, said he was ‘stag- gered at the character of the bill.” Even from some of the big metro- politan areas the farm plan gathered strong support.

Nine Commodities Listed. ‘The nine commodities were listed. Then the Secretary was told to secure e higher purchasing power for these commodities by establishing a better balance between production and con- sumption. To bring down production, he would enter voluntary agreements with pro- ducers to slash acreage and lower pro- duction. In return for such curtail- ments, the producer would be paid direct benefits or rent on the withdrawn acreage. These payments would come out of the processing taxes levied on the com- modjties. The maximum tax allowed would be the difference between actual farm prices for & commodity-and the rice which would give that commodity ts pre-war purchasing value. n this purchasing value is reached hormally through adjustment of supply and demand, this tax would be Te- moved. But the Secretary may raise or lower it at any time to prevent shifts in_consumption. Better to insure success of the plan, the Secretary is granted broad powers to enter marketing agreements and to regulate, through a licensing system, the handling of the commodities in fnterstate commerce. .

"TOLOWER TARIFFS President Wants Agreement With Nations to Provide Market for Surplus. BY CONSTANTINE BROWN, Debts, reparations and disarmament are considered comparatively minor sub- Jects by this administration which be- lieves that most, if not all the present 1lls the world is suffering from could be cured if the clogged wheels of the eco- nomic machinery can be set in motion again. Economic recovery by the breaking down of tariff barriers will be the most important contribution of President Roosevelt and Secretary Cordell Hull in the field of international affairs. ‘The President will seek frorh the pres- ent special session of Congress a free hand to open the gates of the United States to forelgn products, in return, naturally, for similar adequate compen- sations from individual foreign countries. The Department of State and the other departments dealing with the questions of tariffs have been working ever since the coming into office of President Roosevelt at a comprehensive study of the entire tariff question, try- ing to find out what special agreements could be reagched with countries which may absorb a portion of America's overproduction. In the meantime a comprehensive analysis is being made as to what foreign products this coun- try would take from abroad without impairing the national welfare of the TUnited States. Legislation to Be Pressed. It is in official quarters that this new on giving the Presi- dent a free hand to negotiate an enforce new reciprocal tariffs—an en- tirely new departure from the tariff policy pursued by this country since 1909 when provisions for reciprocity were abolished—will be accepted by the Congress. The President intends to press this legislation as soon as the emergency measures encompassed in his program have been enacted. With such new powers in his hands, "Mr. Roosevelt would be in a position to negotiate with any individual nation which may think it worth while to offer adequate compensations to the United States in exchange for certain tariff advantages for the importation of their products into this country. On the other hand, while Ambassador Norman Davis is reported to have been instructed bz the President to help with good advice the European nations which intend’ to straighten out the present political imbroglio in Europe, Davis' main mission is to prepare and hasten, if possible, the reunion of the Interna- national Economic Conference. It is reliably reported that the new am- bassador at large will try to have the date of that conference moved forward and will endeavor to get the other na- tions to meet in May instead of July this year. 1t is also reliably reported that some of the pripeipal European nations, especially Great Britain, would like to meet in Washington instead of London. Think Large Nllqber ‘Will Help. No less than 52 nations are expected to gather at that important parley. As a rule such a large gathering is likely to prove fatal to any conference, but in this particular cace it is believed in high administration circles that the large number of nations will help a successful conclusion of that conference. ‘The principal world powers are, for the time being, more politically than economically minded. They still con- sider that no good could come out of the present economic conference unless the political problems are out of the way. This point of view is not shared by the administration. The present political troubles, it is believed, are due principally to the restlessness in every country, and this is the result of bad economic conditions. Scores of millions of people are either unemployed or hungry, and in their desperation they are prepared to back any foolish move on the part of their governments, provided they can eat. Revolutions and wars are threatening the world only because the economic situation has been allowed to decay to such an extent that there can be no hope of salvation except by violence of one kind or another. The major world nations, unable or unwilling to cope with the economic side of the question, have caused the present violent frame of mind in Eu- rope and Asia. But there are smaller nations which see in the present rest- lessness their inevitable doom, and it is these nations which are likely to sup- port to the limit the American point of view: “Let the wheels of world trade move again, and the other questions will take care of lves if we all show the will to take care of them.” Press Debt Cancellation. The nations which owe debts to the fully share this point of view, although it admits that the gold transfers are to a cer- tain extent handicapping world recov- ery. But on the whole this question of debt revision is not of an over- ‘whelming importance if new economic agreements be reached. Once this is done it is more than probable that some modus vivendi could be arranged to_reconcile the t of view of the debtor nations with that of the Amer- ican people. e same political philosophy is ap- to the disarmament problem.
