NOT TO INTERFERE
WITH FOOD BILL

The Senate Agriculture Committee
decided today not to interfere further
in the controversy over the food and
liquor control bill, at least not until
It learns the views of the President.
The committee came to the conclu-
sion at todsy's meeting that the
wisest plan was to allow the fight to
come to a showdown on the Senate
door.
Senator Simmons. chairman OF the
Finance Committee, who has warned
the Administration several times that
the measure is doomed TO certain de-
feat unless radically amended, will
accompany Senator Martin TO the
White House for a conference.
Although both Senators declined to
discuss the conference in advance. II
was generally underst, ID they would
to stripping the bill OF some OF the
features which have been causing so
much opposition.
Senator Gore OF Oklahoma tried to
get the Agriculture Committee to in
dorss the bill he has submitted as a
substitute for the pending measure
Although some members OF the COM
mittee favored the substitute. no Ac-
tion was taken.
Senator Sheppard OF Texas. the
"dry" leader. tried to get unanimous
consent to take up his resolution pro-
posing nationwide prohibition
amendment to the Constitution. Sen
ator Penrose OF rennsylvania said he
opposed considering the resolution at
this time. but would not object later.
Senator Sheppard then withdrew his
request. but rave notice he would
renew 1t at the first favorable oppor-
-tunity.
