FARM GROUPS
JOIN HANDS ON
HOOVER PLAN
Agree to Drop Differences
to Give President Chance
on Aid Problem.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON March 81. - A
substantial agreement among farm
orgc !zations to drop their differ
ences and join hands for the feeless
McNary bill, said to be what Presi-
dent Hoover wants" was reported to
the senate agriculture committee to-
day by farm leaders.
The move to establish a solid
pfalanx for the measure came as
kilograms we're sent out inviting the
most prominent leaders in the Amer
lean industrial world to appear and
lend their experience to the commit
tee in working out details of the new
bill.
John D. Rockefeller Jr. was added
to the list which included Henry
Ford, Andrew Mellon, Owen Young,
j. P. Morgan, Paul Warburg and
Charles M. Schwab. While Young
and Morgan are in Europe and
some of the others are expected to
decline, committee members felt an
effort should be made to get their
advice.
While these developments were
occurring on the senate side of the
Capitol, the house agriculture COM
mittee held its first session, plan
ming to work parallel to the senate
committee, now in the third day Of
hearings. The house committee may
appoint subcommittee to find out
from Hoover officially what sort of
legislation he desires. Although he
has been silent, the senate commit
tee has been working on the theory
he favors the McNary bill.
The farm organizations came to
agreement in a voluntary conference
late Tuesday.
First five smaller organizations
agreed the old equalization fee prin-
ciple legislatively is dead and it
would be sensible to take a new
tack.
They agreed the new bill should
embody the following principles:
llUSTII1SuIdUS CIStllD uol41Ao ullOC1 q
special board of the treasury de-
partment rather than under the
federal farm loan board; a $300,000,-
900 federal revolving fund for loans
to co-operatives; creation Of an &C
ceptance corporation for agricul-
tural loans, and reduction Of the
minimum time limit on commodity
loans.
Later this agreement was ratified
by the larger farm organization
leaders such as the American Farm
Bureau Federation, the National
Grange and the National Farmers
Union, with the single exception of
the point about the size of the re-
volving fund.
Before the agreement becomes
official the questions will have to
be submitted to members of the or
CARNATIONS, but its practical effect
Immediately will be felt.

 This is only one suite. Twenty guests will have accommodations only slightly less pretentious.
 There will be a spacious social hall, a dining saloon, where 100 guests can be served at once, family dining saloon, smoking room, an observation room near the bridge, a conservatory. a sun room, library containing the best books of the world with many rare first editions and autographs.

 So as to be strictly modern, the yacht will carry hydroaeropane to be used on short expeditions over un- explored parts of the world. A licensed pilot will be a part of the ships personnel. He will be at tn. command of MT. Williams and his guests at all times. Thus small parties will be able to visit distant cities quickly from all the ports at which the boat will dock..
 The engines of the yacht will be the most modern obtainable. and it Is claimed, more powerful than those propellng any other craft of the kind in the world. A shaft horsepower of 30,0O0 will afford speed of 25 knots. Mr. Williams will be able to leave England alongside the Mauretania and race that gre hound passenger liner to the United States.
