pense of other farm products.
The message was sent to the sem
ate Immediately after it met at noon,
but it was not read until mid after
noon because of the preliminary sit
uation. It's purport was known long
in advance of the reading and most
of the farm leaders had made COM
ment on the presidents action.
Predictions that the veto would
ALLEVIATE a large part of the west
from Coolidge politically were sup
ported by the comment of leaders in
sympathy with the BILL While they
did not say anything about the po-
litical effect, they emphasized that
the veto would prove highly disap-
pointing to the people of that section
Of the country.
Similar expression was made on
the floor of the senate during dis
cussion of the message after the
reading. Senator McNary of Oregon,
co-author of the bill, moved to refer
the message to his committee.
This brought protests from the
democratic leader, Robinson of Ar
kansas, and Senator Moses, republic
can, New Hampshire, charged that
! the purpose was to pigeonhole it
there. McNary denied that this was
intended
Earlier in the day the Oregon sena-
tor had said that there would be no
effort to override the veto, but after
the senate debate, he announced he
would move to override Immediately
after the senate convenes at noon
tomorrow.
Upon its original passage the bill
carried only comparatively small ma
jorities in both the senate and house,
and it's authors freely conceded that
there could be little hope of over
riding the president in either branch
OF congress.
The senate vote was AZ to 80 and
the house vote 214 to 178. If the
senate fails to give the motion to
override a two-thirds majority of
those present and voting that will
definitely kill the bill for this ses-
sion.
President Coolidge's veto of the
McNary- -Haugen farm relief bill was
buttressed by an opinion by Attorney
General Sargent, made a part of the
veto message, holding that the bill
"wold, in its most essential provis
ions, violate the constitution of the
United States"
This conclusion of the chief law
officer of the government was based

and substitute house bill by Nelson,
Navajo, relating to the posting of cleo
tion returns at polling places.
Representative Boville's bill amend
ing the present banking code which
was previously Song discJsAed and
much amended in committee of the
whole house, received almost unani-
Fmous approval of the whole commit
tee today and was recommended for
passage as amended.
The senate speedily passed on third
reading three measures, suffered the
introduction of two new bills and after
roll call on Senator Golfers Glen
canyon damsite bill had resulted in a
vote of 10 to for indefinite post
ponement, passed motion for ad
journment until 10 a. m Saturday
leaving the afternoon free for com
mittee work and on-the-side prepara-
tions for the legislative ball. Despite
lengthy plea by Senator Golfer that
"this body not indefinitely postpone
the Glen canyon dam proposal, but re-
fer it to the proper committee for re-
vision, the senate saw fit to shove the
measure into discard with the l. P. Py
label upon it.
A new measure by Golfer proposing
! to amend the state constitution rela-
tive to farm marketing associations
and setting out definite stipulation to
which such organizations would be
forced to adhere. The requirements
are that no member of farm market
| ing association regardless of the
amount of capitol stock he may hold,
is entitled to more than one vote and
that such associations cannot pay a
dividend of more than 8 per cent per
! annum.
The other bill introduced in the SEN
ate by Donnellys regulates by way of
an amendment to the present law, the
withdrawal of shareholders from such
associations and stipulates the per-
cent of working capital allowed for
expense purposes.
Under the existing law a shareholder
whose monthly payments are delin-
quent may not withdraw from the as
sociation and in case of recognized
withdrawal is not entitled to more
than three-fourths of his investment.
The senior Pima county senator's
changes provide that a shareholder
who has made IS monthly payments,
such payments not necessarily being
made consecutively, may withdraw
from the association and that the with
drawer is entitled to all he has invest
ed deducting the amounts regularly
assessed in way of dues and member
ship fees The bill further provides
that the amount to be allowed for ex-
pense shall be 2 per cent. The pres
ent law states that the state superin-
tendent of banks shall set the amount,
and, according to Senator Donnelly,
this has never been done.
Bills passed on third reading in the
upper house today included one by
| Akers, creating department of adult
probation and providing for the posi-
, tion of adult probation officer, such
officer to be appointed by the respec-
tive county superior judges who in adj
dition will set the salary, which is not
| to exceed 5000 per month.

PHOENIX, Feb 25 R-If the leg
islature i'll drafting the highway de-
partment reorganization and fl
nance bill, sent up a balloon to see
which way the wind was blowing,

rather unfavorable gust.
The taxpayers of Cochise county,

tonight by S. p. Applewhite and C.
Nj Roberts, president and secretary.
respective of the Cochise County
Taxpayers association, "are not able
to take on this extra burden an6
believe the rest of the state is in
the same condition"
The bill says that statement, "in-
creases the appropriation for state
roads beyond the present ability of
the state to pay"
1t continues: "This bill increases
the taxes of Cochjse county for state
road purposes alone from $1O8, 900
to 100000, increases Maricopa coun
ty from $11S,OOo to $325,OOO and
other counties proportionate1y.
"This bill takes away from the
counties the entire rs per cent fund.
Under the present law, the coun
ties receive or participate in three
fourths of the gasoline tax.
1.-The proposed law gives the coun-
ties only three eighths and the state
e-eighths of the four cent gaso-
line tax.
This bill appropriates $5OO,OOO to
be used in paying an unknown de-
ficit"
