this subject which has been a per-
picking problem to congressional
leaders since the incoming execu-
tive has made no public utterance
on the question.
During the campaign Mr.. Hoov-
er promised an extra session to
tackle the farm problem if it can
not be disposed of this winter and
a number of house members and
senators are in favor of leaving
the question to the Hoover admin
istration to handle. On the other
hand there are some who insist the
question can and should be settled
between now and March 4, and in
this connection Chairman McNary
of the senate agriculture commit
tee is prepared to go ahead with
the farm relief bill now.
The Oregon senator already has
introduced a measure which has
incurred the administration sup
port and has given notice that he
will endeavor to have his commit
tee consider the proposal after the
holiday recess.
Among the outstanding oppon-
ents to consideration of farm legis-
lation at the short session is Sen
ator Borah of Idaho, a campaign
worker of Hoover, who is bent on
plotting the Kellogg treaty to re-
nounce war through the senate to
ratification. There is a feeling on
the part Of friends of the treaty
that the consideration of such i'm
portant legislation as farm relief
might result in the peace pact be-
ing sidetracked.
Senator Borah takes the posi-
ton that the republican party
had made a promise which it must
fulfill.
