WEEKLY COPPER REVIEW

spect, copper is in the same cata-
CORY as steel and agricultural prod
ucts. 1t is an economic fallacy to as
sumo that we are Independent of the
worlds markets, for European pros
perity is of as great Importance as
our own.
IF the French debt were satisfac-
torily settled, the natural result would
be the extension of considerable cred
it's to France to purchase in this coun-
try the raw materials she needs.
France needs enormous quantities of
copper for her vast program of hy-
dro- electic development, and at pres
ent she is unable to purchase them.
If the necessary credits were extended
to her, France would soon enter the
American market and her purchases in
copper would be decidedly strength
ening factor"

new FARM BILL
IS DRAFT ED
BIZ FRED ]. WALKER

A compromise bill, based upon
combination Of the Tincher and
Aaswell measures, will be the
Administrations plan for q solu.
ton Of the farm relief problem,
it was learned today.
Administration leaders declared
they would offer such a compro-
mise to the House in an effort
to end the deadlock over the
Haugen bill, unless last-minute
change of sentiment in favor Of
the Tincher plan should take
place.
To meet this action; supporters
of Representative Haugen {RJ Of
Iowa were preparing today to
offer series Of additional
amendments to the already
amended bill, as the House again
took up the consideration of agri-
culture relief after a three-day
recess.
Opponents Predict Defeat
Reading of the measure was ex-
pected to be virtually completed
today so that the formal motion
to substitute the Tincher-Aswell bill
may be made Thursday, the next
agriculture day.
The motion TO substitute will be

Its opponents declared. today they
had more than sufficient votes 10
insure its defeat.

been steadily losing ground
Haugen declared, however, that
he expected a close vote.

have an excellent chance of win.
ming"
The equalization fee section OF
the Haugen bill, under which
farmers would pay a tax on basic
commodities to meet the cost of
stabilizing prices, was expected 10
be approved by the House today
because of the absence of a ma
jority of the Pennsylvania delega-
ton due to the State election.
Pennsylvanians are largely op.
posed to the Haugen bill and their
absence has caused frequent de-
lays in the consideration of farm
relief. All are expected back
