CALLS CONFERENCE

Senate Committee Will Hear
Green After Failing to
Agree on Bill.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate Labor Committee failed
to reach an agreement today on Presi-
dent Roosevelt's reforestation bill and
called conference with william Green,
president of the American Federation
Of Labor, who is opposing it.
After an executive session Of an hour
and a half, Chairman Walsh said the
committee would meet later in the day
with Green.
Green denounced the legislation yes
terday as smacking Of "Fascism, Hitler
ism, and form Of Sovietism"
The committee, discussed the bill in
formally and agreed there should be
some legislation for relief of unem-
ployment through reforestation." No
details were agreed upon.
Favors Broadening.
The chairman indicated the bill would
be modified to provide more general
terms, leaving details up to the execu-
tive branch of the Government. This
might result in elimination Of the pro-
vision for a sl-a-day wage level, which
the Labor Federation Is lighting.
Members of the committee decided,
Walsh said, that enlistment in the pro-
posed Civilian Conservation Corps"
should be through the Labor Depart
ment, but had not gone into details as
to making specific provision for it to
be voluntary.
The House Labor Committee, which
also has been considering the bill, will
meet Monday, with Chairman Connery
ready to offer substitute bill
Members Of the two committees gave
evidence OF strong support for the
Presidents plan, but Connery was pre-
pared to demand pay scale of $50 q
month for single men and $50 for mar
ried men. The bill also probably will
be changed to make 1t plain that en-
listment would be voluntary.

Agriculture Also Faces Crisis, He
Ayers, in Spurning Any Compro-
misc-Witness Scores Bill.

Despite a plea by Secretary Wal
lace for speed, the Senate Agricul-
ture Committee decided today to
continue hearings on the admins
tration farm bill next week, and
prospects were that 1t would not be
reported to the Senate before Thurs
day at the earliest.
BY the Associated Press.
The administration, through Secre-
tary Wallace, boldly reasserted to Con-
gress today its belief that to get any
thing done about farm relief the ex-
ecutive offlcials must be trusted with
broad and flexible power.
Nothing less will suffice to meet the
realities that now confront us" was
the terse and uncompromising way in
which the youthful cabinet member
summed up for the Senate Agriculture
Committee the administration stand.
He pressed this direct utterance in
the face of strong opposition among
the committee members and also among
farm organization leaders. He spoke in
open session, casting aside the original
plan to say his say In q closed hearing.
Wallace said:
Congress has granted such author
ity Gas that now asked to meet the
banking emergency. It should, In my
judgment, do likewise in meeting the
agricultural emergency, which Is so In
tiInately interviewer with the banking
situation and the indutrial depression. =

Immediately preceded him, John A.
Simpson, president Of the National
Farmers Union, who said of the admin
ttration bill:

Only yesterday afternoon wallace had
taken up the farm relief question at
the Roosevelt cabinet table, discussing
the substitute plan Of Senator Smith,
Democrat, of South Carolina, chairman
Of the committee, under which the most
drastic provisions Of the measure would
be reduced or stricken out altogether.
wallace said the administration
accepts as q fundamental principle
the view that restoration of the farmers
buying power Is an essential part Of
the program to relieve the present eco
nonllc emergency, not only for agri-
culture, but for all industry and q
large portion Of our national credit
structure"
He denied he had estimated the cos.
of the measure at $500, ,000, 900.
mo sound estimate can be made in
advance" he said.
Wallace opposed the substitute Of
Chairman Smith of the committee,
saying it made no adequate provision
for protecting the consumers interest.
The processing tax" he said, will
not necessarily become operative with
respect to all commodities brought
under the protection of the administra-
ton bill.

If q satisfactory price could be
reached and maintained by trade agree
