PARITY FACES.
CUT TO z PRODUCTS.
Acreage Reduction Feature
of Farm Bill Also Menaced
by Senators.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A bold blue-penciling of the domes-
tic allotment farm relief bill aimed at
its "simplification" threatened last night
to cut out five of the seven products 1t
would benefit and possibly to eliminate
entirely the acreage reduction feature.
Poking critical pencils at various sec
tons of the big price-boosting measure
passed by the House, members of the
Senate Agriculture Committee talked
of striking out peanuts. rice, dairy prod
ucts, tobacco and hogs, retaining only
wheat and cotton. Committee senti-
ment as interpreted by its leading mem
bers showed a drift toward this limita-
ton.
More indefinite was the committee
lineup on the proposal-made for the
first time-that the bill make no at
tempt to require curtailment Of produc-
ton on the part Of the farmers re-
ceiving its benefits.
Reduction Feature Stressed.
The acreage reduction feature has
been regarded as one of the most vital
features of the bill Its sponsors feel
that any effort TO improve farm prices
must attack the problem of the surplus
Under the bill, tax would be levied
on the miller, packer or other proc
essor" to be paid to the farmer in an
amount sufficient to bring to the pre-
war level the price he receives for his
share OF the domestic consumption.
But to collect the money he must agree
to cut production 20 per cent. The hog
corn acreage by 20 per cent.
The argument against this provision
IS based on the contention that an
army Of inspectors would be required
10 check up on acreage cuts all over
the country and it would be too easy
to grow bootleg crop"
Telling newspaper men Of the efforts
of his committee, Chairman McNary
said the group Is considering "simpli-
f1cation of the acreage control in the
House bill, whether to leave it in or
strike it out, and the practicability of
reducing it to cotton and wheat, which
would add also to the administrative
simplif1cation of the act"
Benefit Certificate.
Another change under discussion,
McNary said, is to simplify the plan
for arriving at the value of the benefit
certificate"
He added he thought this could be
done" and would result in the elimina-
tion of whole pages of complicated di-
rections given in the House bill for
finding the pre-war parity of agri-
cultural products in relation to COM
mercial commodities
Instead McNary proposed the amount

Commissioners Request of
Budget Bureau Looks to
$2,500, 900 for 2 Years.

The District Commissioners yesterday
asked the Budget Bureau to approve
legislation giving the District authority
to borrow funds for unemployment re-
lief from the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation. This action was sought
by a group Of leaders in the welfare
and charity field who called on the
Commissioners Friday.

borrowed to 81, 500 900 and to grant the
authority for two years only.

At present any State may borrow

but the District may not. District
money for relief must be appropriated

of an emergency, much more quickly,

ditional 100000 contribution from the
Community Chest, however, the funds
could only be eked out through the
middle of January by three reductions
in the scale of relief, which was ad-
mitted to be inadequate at the start.

spread for three gang chiefs today
Dutch Schultz and two Of his lieu

Bench warrants were issued by
United States Commissioner Francis A.

lieutenants, Henry Stevens and Frank
Ahearn.
George z. Medalie, the United States
Attorney who filed the complaints, said
he expected indictments next week.
The specific charge, Medalie said. was
that Schultz failed to pay . tax OF
S22 .366.21 upon a net income Of $780,
S24 10 in 1929; that Stevens failed to
nav a tax of $1,126.48 on an income Of

pay q tax of $39,164.57 on an income

For 20 months prosecutors have been

LEAGUE TO DRAFT REPORT.
Japan Opposes Four Points for Conciti
alton Of Manchurian Situation


GENEVA, January 81 (R.--Announc-
ing failure for the time being" to find
basis for conciliatory settlement of
the Sino-Japanese confict, the League
OF Nations Assembly Committee of
Nineteen decided today to begin forth
with preparing q report with recon-
mendattons for dealing with the con-
troversy without regard to the views Of
the parties.
This decision was taken after the
committee learned that Japan was un-
willing to accept the committees
scheme Of friendly settlement even If
the committee agreed to the japanese
insistence that the United States and
Russia not be invited to assist in find
ing solution.
The committees action, according to
some legal experts, will require ratif1-
cation by q plenary assembly, but the
committees leaders took the position
that this approval was inevitable and
they authorized an advance to the next
stage of procedure under Article XIV of
the League covenant.
This advance means resorting to
paragraph Of the article. The
paragraph stipulates that when other
methods have failed in settling a dis
pute 1.-The Council either unanimously
or by q majority vote shall make and
publish a report containing a state
ment Of the facts of the dispute and
the recommendation which are deemed
Just and proper In regard thereto"
May Challenge Rights.
Japanese spokesmen indicated they
might challenge the committees juri-
dical right to advance to paragraph 4
without express authorization from the
Assembly. The action Of the commit
tee will be to reply to Toxic and the
