Umpire-William f. Hillman.

The Pocomoke team also played a
game at Crisfield on Tuesday after
noon with the team of that town. The
result was a victory for the Crisfield
team with score of A to 1. This
game was evidently lost owing to the
fact that it was the first time our
boys had ever played together, they
not even having time to practice be-
fore the game was called. But then
excuses don't count, it's the score.

bodied in Substitute Sup
ported by Committee.

WASHINGTON, July 2s.-Bi-partisan

agricultural credits bills. The new meas
ure, presented by Senator McNary
(Ore.). had general backing of Demo
Gratis as well as Republicans. and lead
ers on both sides said passage of the

leaders said, 1t surely would pass early
next week.
In discussing the measure Senator
Norris (Neb.) suffered a partial col
lapse at the close of ar address of
nearly three hours. The effort combined
with intense heat, exhausted him, and
he was taken to an adjoining committee
room, where first aid remedies were
applied by Senator Ball (Del.). ply
sician, who said Mr. Noris's condition
was not believed to be serious. Later
Senator Norris was taken to his home.
and tonight II was said he was much
improved and out of danger.
Important changes in the kellogg bill
recommended by the committee including
doubling of the bond issue authorization
of the finance corporation from $1,000
900, 900 to $4,000. 100000 give the cor
poration greater credit fund. The
committee also added an amendment au-
thorizing the finance corporation to ex-
tend export credit direct to producers
as well as to bankers and exporters. and
a provision authorizing loans direct to
foreign governments which should pur-
chase agricultural products in this cour-
try.
Turn 1t over to Wall Street." said
Senator Norris. adding that bankers and
no representative of agriculture were on
the War Finance Corporation. They
have looked all their lives through Wall
Street glasses and know nothing about
agriculture"
The committee substitute. Senator
Norris said. could not help producers
without a rake off somewhere to specu-
lators or bankers" That was denied by
Senator Lenroot (Wis.), who said loans
to producers associations would be au-
thorized.
