Washington, d. G.. Aug. 10
President Harding succeeded IN
blocking the Norris farm export bill,
but the Kellogg bill, offered as the
Administration substitute, was TOO
raw even for the reactionary Senate
to swallow. As a consequence it was
laid on the shelf and now a bill
drafted by Senator McNsry Of Ore
gon is slated for passage with Admin
istration support. The Norris bill
was opposed by Harding. Melleu.
Hoover and Administration spokes-
men such as Lodge and Edge be-
cause it went directly to the bottom
OF agricultural distress and propos-
ed to curb matters by creating gov
rect and SELL it abroad. 1t virtually
dispensed with the bankers, profess
sional exporters, grain buyers and
other middlemen and this is why it
aroused opposition. The Harding
Administration looks upon life with
q big business viewpoint and is not
sympathetic with any measure that
would do away with any social para
sites. The kellogg Bill. which was
drafted at the request OF the Admin
istration, was designed to help the
bankers instead of the farmers. 1t
provided that advances should be
made to bankers by the War Finance
corporation and then the farmers
might get assistance by giving new
rtgages aad paying high rates OF
interest There was practically no
provision for exporting grain to
starving Europe and 1t was careful
to protect the interests OF the mid
dlemen at every turn of the road.
Norris Flags Kellogg Bill
Senator Norris exposed the ini-
quities Of the Kellogg bill. and the
irregular manner in which it was
drafted, in one Of the most sensation
al speeches heard in Congress in re-
cent years. The Nebraskan was
thoroughly angry. He dispensed
with the usual senatorial courtesy"
and called a spade a spade. 1--WE
wanted to eliminate the middlemen
and the bill which the agricultural
committee reported (the Norris billy
would have enabled the organized
producers Of agricultural products
IN this country to carry their own
products from the farms to the
markets abroad" he said. eff the
operation Of this bill had been sue
cess-and think 1t would have been
there is not any doubt that these
producers themselves then would
have taken the very machinery that
this bill set up temporarily and would
have made 1t permanent, and they
would have had to a great extent
permanent elimination of the mid
dlcmen. "This, of course, was exact

pointed out that its administration

perhaps been acquired in their te-

Norris boldly asserted there had been
frequent conferences at the White
House for the express purpose OF
blocking his bill and directly accused
Secretary Mellen of looking at con-
dtions solely through big business
viewpoint.

Norris's vitriolc attack so
thoroughly exposed the vicious pro-
visions of the kellogg bill that the
Administration ran to cover and
withdrew the measure. Then McNary

producers" he said, "and the Nc

Senator LaFollette also launched
an attack on the United States Ship
ping Board this week when he charg-
ed the American merchant marine
was dominated by British influences
which deliberately were sahotaging

declared that certain powerful rail-
road magnates, putting profits above

ton with British shipping interests

support OF his charges Senator t.
Toilette referred to the report made
to the Shipping Board last March by

clared that the british were conduct

"within our own borders," to dis
credit the merchant marine. He also
quoted from the sensational speech
made last January by Senator Jones.
OF Washington, chairman of the Sen
ate Commerce Committee and author
of the present shipping act in which
he stated that the British were de-
termined to retain their maritime
supremacy and were willing to go
to any length to do it. Senator La
Toilette declared the British had
gained control of the nations mer-
rhant marine through companies
that were posing as American con-
Germs but were in realty English. To
these. he said. the Shipping Board
had allocated it's finest vessels. "1f
the British Board of Trade had con-
trolled the affairs Of the Shipping
Board, it could not have dove worse
for our merchant marine man the
Shipping Board has DONE" he de-
clared.
Federal Reserve Debated Farmers
John Shelton Williams formerly
comptroller of the treasury, recent
ly told the joint committee on agri-
cultural inquiry some pointed truths
about the discrimination practiced
by the Federal Reserve banking
board against the farmers of the
country. He showed that during the
period of defIatfon certain New York
banks were loaned more money than
all the country banks in the agricul-
tural states. This money was in turn
handed out to bank officers at special
rates to be used for speculative pur-
poses, while Governor Harding Of the
Federal Reserve board told farmers
they could not get money with which
to hold their crops because this
would laid speculation" The Fed
eral Reserve board charged country
banks higher rates than 1t charged
New York banks, and according to
Mr.. Williams, deliberately tried to
debate the prices of farm products.
All economists who have studied the
question from an unbiased stand
point have come to the conclusion
that the Federal Reserve banks have
been run in the interests of Wall
Street, and Mr.. Williams corrobor-
bates these conclusions by citing def
