His Campaign in Missouri a Victory for Political Free- Lancing. Champ Clark’s Son Continues Dynasty of Picturesque Statesmen. BY GRACE HENDRICK EUSTIS. Bennett Champ Clark comes to the | Senate with a background and record | l;o suitable for a beginner in his pro- | ssion that it borders on the fantastic. | The big State of Missouri has produced a dynasty of hard talking, long fighting politiclans, Benton.

Secretary Wallace plans to employ the domestic allotment method under the | farm relief bill this year only on an ab- breviated scale, if at all, it was learned in administration circles yesterday. Next year, however, he contemplates making & fuller use of the method—one of many ways in which the bill em- ?owm him to attack the farm prob- lem. Whatever use is made of the plan during the current crop season, it was said, will be mainly a test of its possi- bilities for farm production control. As a result, efforts have been intensi- fied by President Roosevelt'’s agricul- ture aides to increase outlets of Ameri- |can farm products abroad, with R. G. | Tugwell, assistant secretary, now devot- ing most of his time to this.
