FARM RELIEF
WILL PASS
House Leader Is Optimistic
In Spite of Opposition
to Dictatorship

The White House today was
given assurance that the House
will pass the Administration farm
relief bill by Wednesday night,
despite increasing opposition to
its dictatorial features.
Rep. Joseph Byrns of Tennes-
see. Democratic House leader,
said the bill will be taken up for
debate tomorrow and passed
Wednesday under present plans.
He informed White House officials
there is no doubt that the House
will stand firmly by the President
on the fourth major Administra.
ton measure Of the special ses'
sion.
House Committee Called
The House Agriculture Commit
tee was called into session this
afternoon, with Chairman Jones
CD of Texas telling leaders he
hoped for a favorable committee
report.
A final review of the bill by
representatives of the Agriculture
Department and major farm or
ganiZations may lead to changes
in the broad power given the
Secretary Of Agriculture to lease
land for the purpose Of reducing
production.
Representatives of the major
farm organizations, having swung
behind the Administration bill,
were urging Members of Congress
to support it.
Although the equalization fee
plan long urged by the American
Farm Bureau and the export de-
benture plan of the National
Grange both are scrapped in the
new plan, the farm leaders are
virtually unanimous in their sup
port.
Wallace ReassureS Leaders
Secretary of Agriculture Wal.
lace was reaSSuring members who
fear the dictatorship" provisions
that he has no aspirations to be-
come the sole boss of agriculture.
Admitting the bill contemplates
a "major social experiment." he
expressed belief that the whole
nation will be benefited if it
works to raise the buying power
of the farmer.
The Secretary said it was i'm
possible to achieve the prewar
parity between industry and agri-
culture, as planned in the bill,
in one year: nevertheless, he said,
he believed the bill would raise
the farmer from his present
plight, along with a general i'm
provement in economic conditions.

cried:
Here! Stop Him."
Zangara gave a vicious jerk
that shook himself free from their
clutch. He screamed:

myself"
He moved then to Superin-
tendent Chapman, who stood at
the wall, about the middle of the
room, and without a word thrust
into the latter's hands three note
books Of the sort used by Steno-
graphers. He said:
"Here, here my book. Take
it,"
It was this, apparently, in
which he had boasted of writing
his revolutionary doctrines, the
message Of hate that he said
would fire a destruction Of capi-
taliSm.
Chapman thrust them into an
inner pocket, refusing anyone to
view them and saying later that
they contained only an indeciph-
erable and illiterate Scrawl. It
is likely they will find place
in Federal Government records.
Having delivered this boasted
document, Zangara turned back
toward his guards and the chair.

WAGNER BACKS
VAST TPROGRAM
FOR JOBLESS
Plans to Offer 3 Bills Looking
to Sterilization, Changing
R. F. C. Procedure

A program affording a SOLID
understructure upon which EN-
ployment and business can stand
solid and stable" was outlined to
day by Senator Wagner CD OF
New York as a requisite to ma
tional prosperity.
This program included:
Provision for adequate reliet
against distress.
Liberalization of the 1882
general relief act to permit
the launching of a large-scale,
local construction program so
that private enterprise may re-
cover it's bearings and resume
its normal functioning."
Initiation of a large bonded
Federal public works program.
Keep 5-Day Week
The setting up Of a nation
wide coordinate system Of en-
ployment Offices"
Provisions for unemployment
insurance and wage reserves.
A STEADY extension" Of the
five-day week in Government
and in private industry.
Wagner planned to offer three
bills to carry out a part Of this
plan; one liberalizing the law
governing construction loans by
the r. F.. c.; another setting up
a nationwide chain of Federal
employment offices; and the
third to encourage the creation
of unemployment insurance syS'
TENS in the States.
The Senator declared:
"Sometime during the past
two weeks the American people
successfully leaped across the
wide and threatening chaSm Of
collapse and despair. This eIec-
trifying change must be cred
tied to the eIectrifying leader
ship of the President, who has
responded to the call Of the
emergency with q vigOr and re-
sOurcefuIneSs which stirred the
entire nation out of its lethargy.
HOPE FOR JOBLESS
"'The American people are now
ready and eager for action.
They are in q mood to cooperate
energetically in any undertak-
ing which promises to hasten
the day of recovery and recon
struct more firmly the basis Of
future prosperity.
"The ineScapable fact, which I
have repeatedly asserted, but
which has been in the past neg
lected, is that the keystone Of
recovery is the resumption Of
employment"

Two banks moved their funds
further inland after the water
mounted to Main Street. which is
situated on high ground.
Other business men followed

for places of safety. Temporary
living quarters were established in
