Senator Borah, Republican, of Idaho {s thinking of submitting an amend- ment to the agricultural adjustment ect bill to prohibit the importation of all products similar to those which American farmers have agreed to cur- tail in return for Federal benefit pay- ments. | Borah said today there is no sound- | mess in a policy that cuts American | production to the point where foreign competitive goods can be sold in this | country in large quantities. l “There is a large amount of agri- | cultural products coming into the | United States now,” he said. Would Permit Suits. Borah offered an amendment to | the A. A. A. bill yesterday to strike | out the provision denying citizens the right to sue for recovery of processing | taxes. Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia also introduced amendments designed to shave the new powers over production and marketing which the measure would grant to the A. A. A. The A. A. A. bill is expected to be debated in the Senate tomorrow or Thursday. Open Hearings Demanded. Demands that open hearings be held on the measure have been made by S. Clay Williams, former N. R. A chief, in a memorandum to the Sen- ate Agricuitural Committee. Williams, a tobacco manufacturer. accused A. A. A. officials of “subtlety and secretiveness and craftiness” and said they persistently have opposed open hearings. After saying he thor- oughly approved the original act on which the A. A. A.’s production con- trol program is based, he declared the proposed amendments depart *‘far from that basis Willams said the administration’s proposed revision would abandon the original basis for computing the processing tax on farm products as the amount intended to bring the farmer's return to a pre-war parity and instead enable A. A. A. to con- tinue imposing such a tax after the parity point was reached. $17,000,000 INSULL SUITS DISMISSED| Federal Judge Orders Plaintiffs| to Pay in Fight Over Firm Loan.
