oninion that they will be glad to see

that is a long way off. and IN the

Senator Capper feels confident that
a farm relief bill will be passed at the
Forthcoming session Of Congress. Ills
idea in this regard Is that such
easure need not be identical with
the McNary-Haugen bill to be salts
factory to farm leaders In Congress.
But it must accomplish the same
things that much advertised bill prom
Used to accomplish, and it must con-
tain the equalization fee feature or
some adequate substitute II the sur,
Mus production is to be properly cared
for. Some changes in the bill as
vetoed by the President might be
granted, he thought. in the way OF a
compromise, but he felt very certain
that the ardent McNary-Haugenites

troversial equalization fee provision.
AS far as he personally Is concerned
he is not a so-called "bitter ender" re-
garding this farm relief bill. But, he
stated, he will not vote for any sub
stitute or modification unless he feels
pretty sure it is as good as or better
than the McNary-Haugen bill itself.
Farmers Want Action.
Senator Capper said that while the
corn belt is anxious for some substan'
tial form of farm relief, something
that will tend to put agriculture on an
equal footing with industry, the farm
err in that section is thinking more
about taxes than anything else. He
added that the farmers are hoping that
the splendid example held by the Fed
eral Government in the matter of tax
reduction will serve to prompt the
States and local governments to cur
tail their budgets with the view of low
ering taxes. Excessive local taxes are
bothering the farmer more than any.
thing else right now, he stated.
Senator Capper expressed little de-
sire for calling Congress in advance Of
the regular meeting date. However,
he would voice no disapproval If the
President deems such step advisable.

the naval limitation conference being
held in Geneva, Senator Capper indi.
