SENATE APPROVES
 4 OF FARM RELIEF
hcNary.Haugen Bill Is Now
 En Route to the House

Washington. Feb. 1e P-Carry- ing a margin of eight votes in its favor which is two more than that b. which somewhat similar bill was turned down last June, the sen- ate-approved McNary Haugen farm relief bill was en route to the house today where it will be offered as a substitute for a twin measure now being considered there. ...
 Although passage by the house Is looked for by both supporters and opponents of the measure, unless it goes through the same form as it passed the senate 1t will have to be sent to conference and run the risk of being crowded out in the last min- ute rush of the present session.
 Proponents of the legislation are being caused no little worry by the uncertainty as to whether President Coolidge will sign the bill If he ed as far as this session is concern ed because of the apparent impossi- bility of mastering in either house the two-thirds majority needed to override veto.
 Passage of the bill by the senate came late yesterday after many amendments had been added and others rejected. The vote was 47 to 39 A similar measure failed in the senate eight months ago by a 45 to 3s vote. Twenty-four republicans, 22 democrats and the one farmer labor voted for the bill, while 22 re-

Big Decline Noted in
 Goodyear Tire Earnings

New York, Feb. 12 Pl-Net earn ings of the Goodyear Tire and Rub Der company for 1926 as revealed by the annual report yesterday, were sS,799.1SS, as compared with $l3,- 505,S9S in 1925. The decline was attributed to violent price f1uctua- tions in crude rubber, which ere ated serious problems for the in- dustry by necessitating frequent ad- justments of the price of the fin ished product. In view of these con- ditions. President P. W. Litchfield said. the lower earnings for 1926 are considered satisfactory.
 Total surplus of the company aft er payment Of dividends, including s3,090,3SS on account of arrears on the preferred stock was fixed at S3O.705.0r4. as against s30,649,319 in the year before. Net sales to- taled $230,161.S56, which compares with O5,999,S29 in 1925. an in- crease of about 12 per cent.

publicans and IT democrats opposed it. Nine senators, all democrats, re- versed their positions of last year, seven voting.
 The bill emerged with its em- battled equalization fee intact, al- though many attempts were made to defer Its operation.
 Senator Walsh. democrat, Mou- tana, lost an amendment to defer the levy for two years as to all commodi- ties in the bill. and another to post pone 1t for one year on cotton. Har- rison. democrat. Mississippi, also failed in an effort to have the fee on cotton deferred for two years.
 Among the amendments adopted was one by McKellar. democr1t. Ten nessee. adding tobacco to wheat, corn, rice. cotton and hogs, which were originally covered as basic com- modities upon which the equalization charge to handle surpluses would be made.
 Although losing in one direction, Harrison won out in his effort to tack the Bledsoe insurance plan to the. bill. Under 1t. the federal farm board to be set up would be author ized to use part of the $250,00Q.- 900 revolving fund provided to safe guard growers against price declines by levying a premium on any or all of the basic commodities. Cotton. however, Is the chief article 1t de- signs to protect.
 Two other amendments. guaran- teeing that before the fee provision Is placed in operation a majority of the producers of any one crop should declare for 1t first. were adopted. They were offered by Senators Me- Kellar and Simmons, democrat. North Carolina.
