FARM RELIEF IS
SHELVED BY
HOUSE
McNary-Haugen Bill to Be
Laid Aside Till Tax Reduce
ton Report Is Adopted

Farm relief egislation-the Nc.
Nary-Haugen bill-was scheduled to
be laid aside in the House late to.
day while a week is consumed in
acting on other matters. The tax
reduction conference report is SEIZED.
uled for adoption by the House
Monday. The legislative appropria.
ton bill and an urgent deficiency
Dill, providing money for making
effective the soldier bonus, will be
considered Tuesday and Thursday.
The $3.50, 100000 bill for new naval
construction will occupy the House
Wednesday.
The farm relief bill is to be given
consideration, although it may re.
quire three or four days to com.
plete 1t. This Is In Difference to
the wishes Of the congressman
with farmer constituents, and a
general belief that some LEGISLATION
to help the wheat and other
farmers is urgent.
The McNary- Haugen bill may not
be the Legislation adopted. A hasty
Democratic poll of the House Ia
reported to have developed 215
members oppoaed to the legislation,
with $50 in favor Of 1t. There was
talk today Of an attempt to kill
the bill at once and make way for
other measures that have less Cd.
position. Republican Leader Long.
worth said he did not think this
could be done. Many Congressman
would vote against such action,
although they are unfriendly to the
bill as drawn.
Defeat Of the NcNaHy- FIaugen bill
In the House would leave that body
without an alternative farm relief
measure which had been considered
IN the Agriculture Committee. The
latter rejected all other plans when
1t brought out the McNary. Haugen
DILL The Senate has several plans
before 1t and might be able to rush
through some one of them should
It become necessary to replace the
bill now before the House.

PLAN
Federation Of Separate
Branches Of Churches Pro-
posed at Conference
By International New service.


SPRINGFIELD. Mass, May "a
The Federation Of Churches, affili.
ated with the Methodist Episcopal
Church and the Methodist Episcopal
Church South. is provided for in a
resolution submitted today to the
General Conference by the Reverend
William B. Farmer, Of Columbus,
Ind. chairman Of the temporal
economy committee.
The resolution provides that
church corporations may mutually
federate in the event the uniflca.
ton plan is adopted by the South.
ern branch Of the church. The ap.
pointment Of a special commission
OF twenty-five to represent the
church in all matters pertaining to
federation and organic union with
other denominations il recon-.
mended in a report Of the fedora.
ton committee. Increased No-opera.
ton between denominations Is
recommended.
Plans that would place a time
uIhtt on the OI1lcO term or bishop
were blocked by the judiciary COM
mittee. Such a step would be uncon.
stitutipnal. The present term is
life. and there was a proposal in
favor Of an eight.year limit.
Establishment Of a hospital for
negroes in Chicago is favored by
the hospitals and homes committee.
At present there are no hospitals in
the Northern States for negroes.
Professor William M. Blanchard,
Of Greencastle, Ind, chairman of
the education committee, recon.
mended to the conference that care
full attention be given to the estab-
fishing Of vocational schools in India
by the Board Of Foreign Missions.
Educational institutions are also
asked for in Chile, and the plan Is
favored by the committee.
The advisability Of publishing a

church or an INSTRUMENTATION
newspaper will be considered by a
committee Of five to be named by
the book committee.
