 Steel remains largely in the same po- sition it has occupied for the past few weeks with no features reported. De- mand for structural steel is steadying the the market to an extent.

how 1T burns oil without wickS-hoW it cooks and bakes
as fast as gas. We want to demonstrate, too, how the

FARM RELIEF BILL
WILL Be HELD Up
Senator McNary, Co-Author,
Says Measure Will Not Be
Pressed Now.

The McNary- -Haugen farm relief
bill will not be pressed for enact
ment at the next session of Congress.
Senator McNary, Republican, of Ore
gon, co-author of the measure. said
today upon his return to Washington.
Senator McNary said he still be
lieved in the bill as a undamental
principle of legislation. but felt that
the emergency 1t was designed to
meet had passed. Conditions of dis
tress among farmers had been largely
relieved, he said, except for the cattle
raisers, who could not be assisted by
the bill He predicted that if the
present increased price of wheat, corn
and hogs is maintained for the next
year or two the farmers will extricate
themselves from any further diff
Guilty.
The Oregon Senator declared he
could not agree with those who be-
lieved the farmers salvation lies in
cooperative marketing. Cooperative
marketing, he declared. can be used
successfully only when it applies to
special products, such as the prune
growers and fancy fruit growers,
when the producers can control the
product and command a market.
Plans Reclamation Hearings.
AS chairman of the Senate commit
tee on reclamation and irrigation
Senator McNary expects to hold hear
ings this Winter on the Boulder Dam
and Columbia River reclamation
projects. 1t is doubtful whether leg
islation can be enacted any time soon
for the development of these prop
critics. Appropriations for this de-
velopment would meet strong oppo-
sition, he said, because they would
open up large new farm areas, which
would add surplus crops.
He predicted that no difficulty
would be found in the short session
in the passage Of the second def
cheney bin. carrying appropriations
for a number of reclamation projects.
This bill failed of passage in the last
session.

BATTLE OF BUDGET
RACES AT CAPITOL
House Appropriation Com
mittee Starts Work in e.
fort to Trim Expenses.
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

Up in the biggest congressional
committee rooms on Capitol hill
the headquarters of the House COM
mittee on appropriations-the annual
battle to keep down Government ex-
penses is now raging. For weeks,
probably months, to come cabinet
officers, bureau chiefs, generals, ad-
mirals, subdivisional officials and ex-
perts of high and low degree will be
on the grill. Chairman Madden and
his thirty-four fellow w-committeemen n
have embarked upon the task of re-
ducing Federal expenditure by. round
ly, $1,000. 900, 900. Appropriations at
the last session of Congress totaled d
s3.997 600, 900. For the fiscal year
1925-1926 It Is aimed to slash them to
$4,000, 100000.
1t is evident that the pruning knife
is to be welded ruthlessly to that end
The executive end of Pennsylvania
avenue is bound, in consequence, to be
strewn with blasted hopes. The Navy
Department will probably be con-
spicuous among the disappointed. Sec
retary Wilbur's reQuisition for the
S6,5O0,000 necessary to elevate our
battleship guns TO the level of Brit
ish guns is not likely to be approved
Leading members of the appropria-
tions committee hold, with Secretary
Hughes, that not only are our battle
ships adequately effective, but that
the proposed elevation would violate
the terms of the Washington naval
treaty. If the Navy wants elevated
guns. 1t is already apparent that Sec
retary Wilbur and his coadjutors will
have to fight for them.
Huge Air Fleet Secuted.
The controllers of House fappro-
priations. too. are not filled with any
evangelical enthusiasm over naval
aviation. They seem to think the
Navy is doing very well in the air
on the basis of past appropriations.
The friends Of powerful air Navy
would seem to have their work cut
out for them in Congress. Madden's
men have no disposition to neglect
air defense. But they insist that the
fleet confine itself to necessities"
and not ask for .1uxuries."
The postal employees, whose pay
increase bill was vetoed by Presi-
dent Coolidge last spring, also have
a fight on their hands if the bill is
to be enacted over the presidential
nay. The bill appropriates s125,0O0,-
600 for increased compensation for
letter carriers, post Office and other
mail service employees. Neither the
President nor Postmaster General
New would oppose the raise" if
