FARMER Relief
BILL SPEEDED

Senate insurgents gathered. around
the conference table today to draft
a farm relief bill designed to lift
the American farmer out of the
economic d0ldrums.
They had several proposals out
of which they hoped to evolve a
definite measure to lay before the
new Congress- They consider farm
relief as the major legislative issue.
dwarfing even tax reduction.
Chief interest ceptered in the
proposal advanced by Senator
Brookhart (R.) of Iowa. He would
create a Federal export corporation
to buy surplus crops at q fixed
price for sale abroad.
The corporation would pay the
farmer the cost of production plus
5 per cent profit.
The principle is analogous to the
cost.plus contracts negotiated by
the Government during the war,
but since abolished.
The Government would put up
$3.50, 100000 cash and would issue
81 $50 900 900 in bonds.
Ultimately, control Of the cor
poration would pass into the hands
Of the producers.
To enlist support of the Admin.
istration. the equalization fee, the
heart of the vetoed McNary. Haugen
bill. would be abolished. In its
place a. definite price-fixing scheme
would be substituted.
Administration spokesman have
objected to any form of price fixing.
All insurgents did not subscribe
whole heartedly to Brookhart's
plan.
President Coolidge and hts cab.
met are also devoting considerable
time to farm relief plans.
No agreement has been reached
but it is expected that the Admin.
istration will renew its insistence
upon general cooperative measures,
which would provide freer and more
ample credit facilities for farmers.

Through the Japanese counsel

word has reached the Church Fed.
GRAFTON officers that the Japanese
government does not look with
favor upon any agitation seeking
to create sentiment in this country
for modification OF the American
restrictions against immigration
from Japan.
The japanese take the position
that such a-campaign would be I'm.
timely and i'll advised and ulti.
mately would react adversely to the
Japanese interests in the United
states and its insular possessions
by inspiring more rigid restrictions
that at present prevail.

It appears, recently conceived the
idea OF launching a campaign of
publicity and propaganda for leg.s.
lation at the next session Of Con.

The idea was to devise a plan Of

that would permit limited immigra-
