FUTURES
Bloc Members Ready
to Force Action in
Congress.
LETTERS POUR IN

WASHINGTON. June 12-Farm bloc
Congressman were determined today that
Congress shall not adjourn this sum
mer until a new grain futures bill has
been enacted to take the place of the
one recently knocked out by the United
States Supreme Court.
Needing the appeals OF people in their
districts, midwest and western Congress
men are united behind the Capper-
Tilcher bill. now in the hands of com
mittees al both ends OF the capitol. At
the House side, those backing the bill
hope to secure favorable report from
the Agricultural Committee in time to
allow a vote in the House next Thurs
day, when the Agricultural Committee
has the say as to what legislation is to
come up.
There is no doubt but that the bill
will pass Representative Tincher, Kan
sas, co-authcr Of the measure, said to-
day.
FARMERS WRITE
TO CoSGRESSNEN.
With the wheat crop about ready TO
harvest and the Germ crop coming along,
farmers in the western grain belts are
flooding Congress with hundreds of let
ters and telef rams every day, urging
that a new grain futures bill be rushed
through. An alarming situation viii con-
front the grain producers, they declare,

pervision OF the Secretary of Agricui-
ture, whose authority in the matter is
established by the fact that the futures
trading is a part Of interstate commerce.
The old law, declared unconstitutional
by the Supreme Court, sought to regu-
late the exchanges by the imposition of
high Federal taxes.
GRAIN OFFICIALS
ATTACK MEASURE.
Grain exchange officials are attacking
the bill from every angie. One Of their
chief complaints is tina. under the meas
ure the exchanges would soon be under
political management and control. A
provision in the bill authorizing the Sec,
rotary of Agriculture to substitute Fed

joker" the grain dealers charge. de-
signed to permit the Secretary OF Agri-

machine in control of the grain market,

The new futures act is given good
chance of passing the House AZ an early
