FESS SAYS HAUGEN
BILL HAS NO CHANCE
Will Never Pass as Long as
1t Carries Equalization Fee,
He Declares.

The McNary-Haugen bill hasn't
chance of passage at the short ses-
sion of Congress. Senator Fess. Re
publican, Ohio, who led the admin
istration farm fight at the last ses-
sion. declared yesterday.
AS long as the bill carries the equal
ization fee, he said. it would never
pass. because 1t would violate the
Constitution by delegating q govern
mental agency to assess tax.
He added. however, that II some
plan could be devised to export the
surplus crop at the voluntary ex-
pense of the producer without any
semblance of price-fixing and under
machinery entirely divorced from the
Government, it probably could be
passed and would afford relief to ag-
riculture.
Fess dismissed with wave of the
hand the suggestion of a possibility
that the supporters of farm legisla-
ton could prevent passage OF some
of the large supply bills and force an
extra session of Congress.
"They can't do it," he said.
If the McNary Haugen bill Is press
ed, F'ess said, he would offer as a
substitute his measure, providing for
an appropriation of $100.000,000 to
aid cooperative marketing.
