and be of political advantage to the
party in power.
- What the Republicans will offer in
their national platform as substitute
for the new farm measure has not yet
been disclosed. AS matter OF fact,
the Republicans are not likely to come
forward with farm relief plans in def
mite form until the time of the ma
tional convention in June. They are
giving the subject a lot OF study, how
ever. They realize that the farm
benefit checks have exerted powerful
influence in many of the States OF the
West and Middle West. The support
given the administrators farm bill
today by some of the Western Repuo-
lican Senators is evidence enough OF
that feeling.
Committee Restudy Defeated.
McNary made an effort to have the
farm bill recommitted for period no:
exceeding three weeks, in order to give
the Committee on Agriculture time to
formulate a measure which would be
both constitutional and better legisla-
ton for the farmers. His motion, how
ever. was voted down, 54 to 81.
The three Republican Senators
whose names have been most prom
inently mentioned in connection with
the presidential nomination, Borah Of
Idaho. Vandenberg of Michigan and
Dickinson of Iowa, were all recorded
against the farm bill Vandenberg
voted against it and Borah and Dick
inson were paired" against it. How
ever, five Republican Senators voted
for the bill and one, Nye of North Da-
kota, was paired for it. The five who
voted for the bill were Capper of
: Kansas, Frazier of North Dakota
johnson of California. Norbeck OF
South Dakota and Norris Of Nebraska.
Nine Democrats voted against the
bill and three were paired against it.
They were Bulkley and Donahey of
Ohio, Copeland and Wagner of New
York, Lonergan and Maloney of Con-
necticut, Tydings of Maryland. King
of Utah, Burke of Nebraska, Gerry OF
Rhode Island and Walsh of MaSsa-
chusetts
George Defends Court.
The debate was marked by defense
of the Supreme Court by Senator
George, Democrat, of Georgia. He
said the court left an opening for
Congress to legislate for agriculture
by placing less restrictions on its
power to appropriate than on the
general power to legislate, and added:
Whatever my party writes into the
next platform, will not support any
program that looks to the elimination
Of the dual system of government.
my obligation to my country is
superior to my obligation to my party"
George voted for the soil bill, but
said he had some doubt of its validity.
