SENATORS IN ROW
OVER FARM RELIEF
Statements From Steck and
Brookhart Follow Disagree
ment on Bill.
By the Associated Press.


Disagreement of three of the main
agricultural relief bill stirred up a
new round of statements at the Cap
itol today on the issue, with the farm
leaders assailing President Coolidge.
as well as each other.
Senator Brookhart of Iowa, on be-
half of the group of Western inde-
pendent Republican Senators, de-
clared that the inability of the farm
organizations to agree does not ex-
cuse the President from keeping "the
pledge Of his party to extend farm
relief"
At the same time. Senator Steck
Democrat, Iowa, completed a lengthy
statement declaring that Senator
Erookhart and the Western group te
which he belongs, were actually hin
dering enactment of farm relief be
cause Brookhart and some Of the mem
bers refused to support the vetoed Nc
Nary -Haugen bill.
BrOokhart's Statement.
Senator Brookhart insisted that re-
sponsibility for farm legislation rests
with no less weight upon both Con.
gress and the President"
"It is the duty of Congress to solve
this great question" he said. 'The
same pledge was made by both parties
and if the President refuses to proceed
with the solution of this problem in
accordance with his party pledge,
want to ask the Democrats and Re
publicans in Congress to prepare bill
in accordance with their pledges tC
join together and pass it over a presi
Dental veto"
Stating that he recognized the i'm
portance of the farm organizations
Senator Brookhart said that only
about one third of the farmers of his
State were members of the National
Grange, American Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton and the Farmers Union,
| which met here this week in an un-
successful effort to agree on a farm
bill.
"The farm organizations are hu-
man." he said, land they have human
iealousies that oftentimeS prevent an
agreement among farm leaders. This
disagreement is often promoted by
outside selfish interests. To refuse
to keep the pleQge upon the preleXl
of disagreement among any farm
leaders is an unjustifiable excuse for
failure to perform the plainest public
duty that was ever promised to the
farmers of the United States"
Steck Raps BrOOkhart.
Senator Steck said that while Iowa
demands the passage of the Nc
Nary-Haugen bill without change,
"Yet we have an Iowa Senator nomi-
mated and elected as a Republican.
who is against the McNary-Haugen
bill and who opposed the candidacy
of Frank Lowden. who surely and
certainly is favored by Republican
Iowa for the Republican Presidential
nomination in 1925"
"Brookhart has now joined a small
group under the leadership of Senator
Borah," he said. This group is open
ly opposing the Haugen bill and tho
nomination of Mr.. Lowden. 1t would
be tragic situation should it be con-
ceded that Mr.. Brookhart or the
group with which he has aligned
himself, has any influence or standing

railroad police today sought to trace
the persons responsible.
Officials reported that spikes had

appeared to have been a deliberate
attempt to wreck the train, plunging
foot embankment and resulting in
the death of the engineer and serious
injuries to the fireman and a negro
passenger.
Bolts Were Removed.
In addition, bolts had been re-
moved from the rail joints, causing
the tracks to spread as the train
passed over.
Officials called attention to the
fact that the system maintains sig
nails and the latest automatic train
control devices in the section where
the accident occurred, but that be-
cause the spikes had been pulled.

rails intact. the control devices were
not affected and could give no
warning.
So far, no clue to the culprits has
been found, but it was revealed that
detectives had been here for more
than a week investigating reports of
tampering with railroad property in
this vicinity.
Sheriff Expresses Doubt.
A few minutes before the wreck

dation running between Chattanooga

stretch Of rail and went into a sid =
ing miles ahead of Lenoir City to
allow the Memphis Special to pass,

of Loudon County.

scene, expressed the opinion that the
time between the two trains was in
sufficient to allow for any unspiking
