Roosevelt Plan Approx
ed By Farm Bureau
Major Farm Groups Urge that Wal
lace Be Given Wide Powers
to Raise Prices

Approval of President Roosevelt's
plan for aiding agriculture has
been given by all farm organiza-
lions represented at Washington,
says the chief of the foremost of
them, E. A. O'Neal, president of
the American Farm Bureau.
The plan was drawn on March
10 and II, at a farm conference
called by Henry Wallece, secretary
of agriculture. President Roosevelt
and the farm organizations would
have congress give Secretary Wal
lace authority to influence farm
prices and farm production, and
the Emergency Agricultural bill
granting this authority was present
ed to committees of the house and
senate on March II.
This bill has two main detectives:
first to increase the price of farm
commodities so that the purchasing
power of agriculture will be on
the pre-war basis of 1909-1914; and
second, to control SURPRISES. In at
tanning these objective, the Presi-
dent, through the Secretary of Ag-
riculture, is given broad powers:
Cd to put all professors and dis
tributing agencies, including when
necessary commodity exchanges,
under license provisions so that
the rules and regulations of the
Secretary must be obeyed; (2) to
arrange marketing agreements with
marketing agencies, cooperative
and old-line, with professors of
farm commodities and with produc-
ers themselves; co to arrange for
production agreements in the way
Of limiting output with producers;
"a to enter into acreage rental con-
tracts with producers so as to with
draw from production portions OF
acreage now raising staple farm
crops; 90 to impose and collect
charges or taxes on the main agri-
cultural commodities, to be collect
ed at the point of processing and
to have as their objective the lift
ing of farm prices up to or toward
the price level prevailing 1909
1914.
The bill specifically applies to
wheat, cotton, corn, hogs, cattle,
sheep, rice, tobacco, milk and it's
products. Other language in the
bill gives the Secretary power to
apply some of the provisions and
the taxes authorized in the bill to
other commodities, if by competi-
ton or by shifting of competitive
factors, other crops than those nam
ed, assume Importance.
It is expected that the bill, being
in broad, general terms, will be
easier to adapt to the commodities
named and to varying conditions
which appear in respect to them
by rules and regulations to be is
sued by the Secretary, than if all
procedures were to be set out in the
law itself. One difficulty of our
former farm relief bills at Wash
ington has been to get terms and
provisions so written in one bill as
to apply equitably to all commodi-
ties. This bill leaves rules and reg
ulations which are variable to take
the place of definite law which can
not be changed except by Congress.
The measure will continue until
terminated by the President and
authorizes, and directs other de-
partments of government than the
Department of Agriculture to as
sist in it's successful administra-
ton whenever necessary.

PRESIDENT HAS INTERVIEWED TN ] CODE DISPUTES
Straightens Out the Argu- ment That Started in
 Dept. of Agriculture

Washington, Dec 7.-(UP)- Intervening in a heated contro- versy in his agricultural recovery administration, President Roosevelt has sought to ward off breakup in that organization by transferring much of its code work to General Johnson's MIRA.
 Mir Roosevelt acted shortly be- fore midnight after Administrator George Peek went to the White House for a showdown.
 Peek was aroused by statements of Secretary Wallace questioning the success of the. AAA code and marketing agreements as contrast ed with crop reduction measures. He was reported to have told friends that the issue had come to crisis. He was represented as being particularly bitter toward the brain trust group led by Assistant Secretary Rex Tugwell which has insisted with Wallace that crop restriction rather than marketing agreements held out the most hope of improving farm conditions.
 All codes in AAA except those re- lating to first processing of farm products were ordered trans ferred to MIRA. This was inter- preted to mean that all AAA code negotiations would be transferred except those dealing directly with raw farm produce such as milling, packing and canning.
 By strict interpretation 1t was said this would leave distillers and brewers under AAA but not liquor wholesalers and rectifiers. AAA officials explained however that the degree of supervision of the federal Alcohol Control Administration over all liquor industries was such that the distinction was purely technical.
 The announcement surprised those who had not seen Peek's face redden during Wallace's press con- ference when the agricultural sec- retary asserted that contrary to Pek's view, the hope of farmers lay in reducing their crops to the size of effective demand, rather than in the establishment of arbitrary val ues through the control in agree ments and codes of the marketing of their products.
 Their surprise was heightened by the fact that only few hours pre- viously Peek had announced his administration in December would conduct the most code hearings since it's inception. He listed 37. They include, milk, fruits. vege- tables, restaurants, and fisheries.
 Wallace and Tugwell insist that no real farm recovery can be ex- pected immediately from the ex- pansion of foreign trade. and that Peek's codes have raised prices, such as that of milk, out of pro- portion to the increase in consum- CTS buying power, and thus have curtailed consumption.

SENATOR 'HUEY' | LONG MACHINE IN l FULL BACKDOWN
Gave in to the Voters and Will Call For New Election

New Orleans, Dec 7-(UP)-The Huey P. Long political machine today gave in to voters rebellion in the sixth congressional district and agreed to call a new election to choose a successor to the late Rep Bolivar B. Kemp.
 Governor O. K. Allen, member of the Long machine, said he was willing to call the new election while forces seeking to overthrow Longs absolute political rule, were jubilant over the conviction of three pro-Long election commis- sioners for certifying false re- turns in last November's election. Longs enemies have alleged that the election was honey-combed with fraud.
 Mrs Kemp. widow of the late congressman, who was "elected" at farcial election Tuesday, offer ed to resign to make a new cleo tion possible. Governor Allen quickly announced his willingness to call 1t.
 Three of the 12 parishes includ- ed in the district did not vote in Tuesdays election. Their polling places were tied up by court in- junction. The other parishes, which have a normal vote of ap- proximately 10000, cast approxi- mately 5,000-all for Mrs Kemp as she was the only candidate on the ballot. The election was mark ed by disorders with citizens com mittees seeking to keep voters from the polls. Senator Long and several of his political subordinates places in the district.
 The convicted election commis- sioners were the first of 513 indict- ed as the result of alleged frauds in the November election which was for consideration of proposed state amendments. They face a penalty of imprisonment for not less than six months nor more than one. year.
