AAA Revision Is
Voted By House
Vigorous Efforts Made for
Constitutional Measure

WASHINGTON, June 10. (UP).
With the shadow of the supreme
courts decision outlawing NRA
long and broad across congress,
the house yesterday hastily re-
vised the agricultural adjustment
act in an attempt to make it
legal to the last letter of the law.
A series of amendments to the
AAA were passed and sent to the
senate, and another of President
Roosevelt's pieces of "must" leg
islation was scratched off the
house calendar.
The amendments passed by a
standing vote of 16S to So.
The principal thing these
amendments will do, if approved
bv the senate, will be to strike
down the price-fixing features of
AAA. The only commodity that
will escape is milk. A minimum
price to milk producers will re-
main in effect.
Republicans made half hearted
attacks on the whole theory of
collecting of process
ing taxes in order to get money
to pay the farmers for reducing
acreage. They described it as
"un-American, unconstitutional
and an unfair burden on the poor
who must buy food and clothing"
Representative Allen Treadway,
R., Mass, complained against the
AAA's practice of "imposing
taxes on one section of our citl-
zens to pay bounties to another,
without benefiting the federal
treasury in any respect"
But when the Republicans at
tempted to turn this oratory lnto
action by offering amendments

the 72O-foot level of the Kansas
prison coal mine last night, refus-

the prison board acceded to their
demands for dismissal of the pris-

ALLIED UNITY
OF ACTION MAY
BE NEAR END
France More Cool Toward
Britain; Italo-British
Strain Grows
By RICHARD D. MACMILLAN
United Press Staff Correspondent


PARIS, June 10. (UP).-Grow.
ing GOODNESS between France and
Great Britain over the new
Anglo-German naval understand.
ing threatened last night to break
the unity among the former allied
lpowers against Adolf Hitler's re-
armament program.
Two important consequences of
Britain's action in concluding this
bi-lateral accord with Germany
were seen here:
/. Postponement of the 1895
world naval conference.
2. Temporary shelving of the
general western air aid pact, in
volving Britain, France, Belgium,
Italy and possibly Germany.
The French note to London de-
ploring England's new attitude to-
ward Germany revealed the dan
gerous GOODNESS now existing be-
tween the two governments, which
adds to the recent estrangement
between Britain and Italy over
Britain's attitude on the Abys-
sinian dispute.
The French seemed especially
surprised over the apparent
change of policy at London from
the close cooperation among Bri-
tain, Italy and France, sponsored
by former Prime Minister j. RAM
say Macdonald. .
Terms of the understanding"
permitting Germany So per cent
of the British naval strength were
received at the Quai dOrsay last
night without comment.
The government, however, was
surprised at the rapidity with
which Britain had concluded the
agreement and interpreted Bri-
tain's action as allowing France
liberty to proceed with such naval
construction as she desires, since
the Washington treaty of 1922 no
longer is considered binding. 1t
was denounced by Japan.
As a result. France probably
will proceed to increase her naval
tonnage with a construction pro-
gram as soon as she feels Ger
many's building program endan'
gers her naval security.
Inasmuch as Premier Benito
Mussolini shares the French dis
content over Britain's action, the
general impression seems to be
that a world naval conference this
wear would be futile. In addition
to the multiple unsolved prob
lens, including Japan's demands
for parity with Britain and the
limited States, the German issue
has complicated the situation
making feeling against navaI
limitation accord almost unani'
