Washington-The Haugen bill, pro-
vided for an equalization fee, was de-
feated by a vote of 167 for to 212
against Previously the two other
bills affecting agriculture, namely the
Tincher and Aswell proposals, had
been withdrawn by their authors. The
final test, Unexpectedly, came on the
Haugen bill, which gave the admins
tration clear cut victory. Supper
tiers of the Haugen bill have now
transferred their right to the senate.
Since the house already has acted on
the Haugen bill there would seem to
be little use for the senate to revival
lie and revive that much discussed
measure.
The action of the house came rather
suddenly and it has been generally &C
cepted as presaging complete defeat
for all farm relief proposals, although
there always is the possibility of a
compromise which will meet with the
approval of President Coolidge.
So far as the house is concerned ef-
forts will be made to have the com.
mittee on agriculture report either the
Tincher or the Aswell proposals or
something which would make possible
carrying into effect the main feature
of both.
