COTON'S FRS ONRELEFSLATE Secretary Wallace to Discuss Plans With Representa- tives of Industry. By the Associated Press. Secretary Wallace provisions of the farm relief act ap- plying to cotton, hopeful that a plan for this year's crop can be worked out within & month which will be “satis- factory to every one in the industry, from top to bottom.” His action will be wholly informal and will consist of a conference with representatives of the industry who have asked to discuss application of the act to cotton. It is understood that in preliminary conferences amo; themselves, leaders of some phases of the industry have arrived at the (oun-1 dation for & trade agreement. They intend to report their prog- ress to Wallace and at the same time discuss application of the Smith cot- ton option to cotton in the South this year. There is some disagree- ment on the desirability of applying this plan this season because of the advance in planting. Unofficial ~ estimates indicate that about 68 per cent of the cotton in the South has been planted. This is be- hind normal years when 98 per cent has been planted at this date. How- ever, Wallace does not believe that machinery for administering cotton tomorrow will | . take up the problzmo!mmmmnwl Telief can be devised before planting is ‘complete which would make difficult any method of curtailing acreage un- less the plow is applied to part of the crop. FARM CREDIT SET-UP | AND PLANS OUTLINED Mcrgenthau Intends to Center Functions in Cities Where Land Banks Are Located. By the Associated Press. e Henry Morgenthau, jr., Farm Boal chairman and g:‘vemor designate of the farm credit administration, intends to center all Federal farm credit functions as far as possible in cities where Fed- eral land banks are now located. Each will have five divisions corre- sponding to five divisions at the Wash- ington office. There are now two di- visions at each land bank city, which will continue operating largely as be- fore, the land banks and the intermedi- ate credit banks. The three divisions which will bs added are production credit, to be handled through co-cperative loaning associations formed by farmers, co- operative credit and emergency credit. | ‘The latter are to assume function of the | regional agricultural credit corporations of the Reconstruction Finance Corpora- tion. Tt is planned in general to liqui- date these regional corporations in five years. ‘The regional corporations now are lo- cated in cities other than those where land banks are situated. Morgenthau is considering trans- ferring their functions to the land bank centers soon after the credit adminis- tration becomes effective under execu- tive order May 27. Because of opposi- tion to this transfer, however, he may postpone it. One case of this type involves Raleigh, N. C.. where a regional credit corpo- ration bank is now located. Representa- tive Pou, Democrat, of North Carolina, has filed a protest against its removal. He sald the Raleigh bank has a record and is centrally located for the agricultural region and “should be con- tinued in operation there.” Dr. W. I. Myers of Cornell University, Morgenthau's aid, in charge of reor- ganization, was out of the city today. It was learned that his plan contem- plates centering all credit activity for the section at Columbia, 8. C, in the interest of “economy.” =T : THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. ©,'MAY 1. WISCONSIN'S NEW SENATOR MIDWEST ORATORY Honor Frenchmen FIGHTING KIND OF DEMOCRAT| VICTOR MISSOURIAN| Who Built Forts for Duffy Man of Celtic Vigor, Who Defeated G. 0. P. “Stalwart.” Enthusiastic Supporter of Theory of District Rep- resentation. BY GRACE HENDRICK EUSTIS. ‘The State that supplies this coun- try with White Rock, cheeses, malted milk, Oshkosh luggage, pale Milwaukee bricks and some of its best beer has bounced back into the Democratic side of the Senate this year, wearing green. When Senator F. Ryan Duffy was elected with a plurality of 22,600, one loyal Irish voter said, “I see Ryan Duffy has got in, and I voted for him.” This is the first Democratic Senator Wisconsin has had since before the war. The ranks of tie State Democra- tic party were split and for many years razed when Robert Marion La Follette divided the Republicans into progres- sives and conservatives in. his fight against the lumber and railroad power monopolies. There is a primary system in Wisconsin under the terms of which Republicans can go into Democratic primaries and vice versa, so for many years Democrats worked with the Pro- gressives and the Democratic party, per se, was debilitated. Not until 1928 did life begin to creep back into its veins. The call of the Happy Warrior was what the repressed lads needed, and they arose and shouted with ardent but weak voices. Independence, the Cry. Prom then on Celtic vigor was aroused and independence was the cry. This year they defeated John B. Chap- pell, “stalwart” Republican candidate for the United States Senate. They | have a Democratic Governor, Schme- | deman, the first one in 40 years. In the House of Representatives there are mnow five Democrats instead of one as in the last session. There is a majority of them in the State Assembly and there are nine in the State Senate. Senator Duffy is a handsome, gray- haired man. He walks with the God- given confidence of the Irish and his laugh rings back from the corners of | the room. He was born in Fond du Lac | and educated in his State, getting both his bachelor of arts and bachelor of | law degrees from the University of Wis- | consin. During the war he went to France, serving 14 months overseas in motor transportation work, for which he was given the rank of major. When he came back he practiced law and was very active in the American Legion. At one time he was their State commander. This caused him plenty of misery this Winter, when the President’s economy bill was pending. However, he shut his eyes and dove in, supporting the admin- istration. Convention Delegate. This s his first political office, but he is no bewildered neophyte, staring around strange places. He realized over | a year ago which way the tide was going | to run, so, in the State Convention held | in Fond du Lac in January, 1932, he was one of the most fiery Roosevelt sup- | porters. The convention chose Mr.| Roosevelt as the State’s Democratic | candidate. | As soon as this was decided Senator Duffy started to campaign for himself as a delegate to the Chicago convention | and he was elected chairman of the | State delegation. Then he was on his | way. He wasurged to run for Governor, | but declined. He campaigned througi- out the State in the primaries, where he encountered no opposition, in a ballyhoo car, speaking mostly about Mr. Roosevelt. In the actual Senate race he won with an enormous majority. The town of Fond du Lac is near | water and wild, low woodlands. The | Senator'’s idea of fun, when he can escape legislative duties and the pa- rental responsibilities of four children, is to shoot ducks and to hunt deer. His Senate committees are Foreign Rela- tions, Military Affairs and Privileges and Elections. He is a little hesitant | of talking much in the chamber and | before the press, being of the “it is!
