Senate Expected to Send
Measure to President
This Afternoon.
HOUSE RATIFIES BILL
Federal Board May Be
Appointed Saturday to
Start Program.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Pres staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June 14.-The
administration debentureless farm
bill was pushed swiftly today along
the road toward final enactment.
The conference committees repre-
senting each house ratified an
agreement eliminating the de-
benture plan before non.
Walking straight across the capi-
tol, the house conferees brought the
matter to the attention of the house
Immediately and by 1915 p. M, the
bill had been ratified by the house
without discussion or objection and
was resting on the table of Vice
President Charles Curtis.
Move on Secrecy Rule
1t waited there but ten minutes
and then was taken up by the SEN
ate with prospects that debate would
be shortened so it could be sent to
the White House before President
Herbert Hoover leaves his Office for
the day. He is expected to sign it
Immediately and there is a chance
he may announce Saturday the per-
sonnel of the eight-member federal
farm board which is TO take over
agricultural supervision and admin
lister a $500,000,000 federal revolving
fund under provisions of the bill.
Riding over the protests of former
secrecy advocates, the senate moved
today to change its 140-year-old rule
of considering presidential nomina-
tionS in executive session, and to
provide for publication of all future
secret roll calls.
While no senator is now openly
opposed to the change, a small
group of Republican leaders want to
put off action until fall The sit
uation is such, however, that they
must f1libuster if they want to delay
a vote.
The Jones amendment proposing
the change is now the pending
business of the senate, made so late
Thursday by IS to % vote.
Early Recess Possible
If the Jones amendment is adopt
ed within the next few days as
scheduled, the way will be cleared
for a summer recess of congress the
middle of next week.
After the house voted $50 to 113
against the debenture farm relief
provision Thursday, the senate
adopted the census and reappor-
tionment bill 48 to 81. Then the
senate refused to take up repeal of
the national origins provision of
the immigration act by a vote Of
81 to 43.
These measures had been in an
apparently hopeless jam for a week,
with matters rapidly growing worse,
when finally, under a blistering
June day sun, the perspiring con-
gressmen gave in.

Two young men, who claimed to

Subsequently, it developed that his
name was Schreiber ron of Mr.. and
Mrs. Morris r. Schreiber.
Report First Secuted
Persons connected with the fight
at first secuted the report that

COAL AWARD
TO COFFIN AID
County Must Pay Higher
Price Than Bids of
Other Firms.

Marion county will pay company
represented by one Of George V
Cof1ns two Republican Fourth ward
chairmen at least Is cents a ton
more for thousands of tons of coal
to be burned in county institutions
this winter than the county commits
sioners could have bought the coal
for from less favored firms, it was
disclosed today.
The contract was awarded to the
Allied Coal and Material Company
represented by Harmon Campbell
1167 West Thirty sixth street, one
of the Ieutenants Of Coffin, Repub-
lican city chairman. Coffin for some
time has controlled the commission
ers.
Campbell's Bid Higher
Figures unearthed by The Times
today show that CampbelrS bid for
his company was higher on prac-
tically every grade of coal bid than
that of competing firms.
Commissioners offered as an ex-
PLANTATION for the award of the con-
tract upon the unusually high bid,
instead of to the lowest bidder as
most governmental bodies do, the
declaration that they considered the
proposal by Campbell "the lowest
and best bid" with emphasis on
the best"
The commissioners apparently
overlooked the fact that lower bids
were offered by, among others, the
indianapolis Coal Company and the
Peoples Coal and Cement Com
pany, generally regarded as among
the biggest and most reliable coal
dealers in this section of the
country.
Named Only Recently
Instances of how much taxpayers
will be forced to meet in the way OF
paying for the higher prices granted
the firm represented by Collins man
Campbell are:
The contract calls for S5.65 ton
on West Virginia coal. Other bids
ranged from $3.50 to $3.50.
Campbell's price on West Virginia
egg is $40, whereas some Of the
other bidders went as low as S5.19,
Two other bidders were below
Campbelrs figure of $3.50 a ton for
Indiana mine run.
Campbell's firm will get $5.45 for
Kentucky egg, as compared with
one offer of 1924 from another
firm.
Campbell did get under the others
on coke one and two at $3.50 a ton
Campbell was named Fourth ward
chairman by Coffin only few
weeks ago after George o. Hutsell
county clerk. resigned as chairman
declaring he no longer could keep
his self-respect and allow his name
to be associated with such opera
tionS as those of Cofin's organ
ization.
