FARM RELIEF JOKERS

In a recent address. Fred S. Sex
auer, President OF the Dairymen's
League Cooperative Association.
Inc, pointed out that state control
of agricultural products tends to
lower the bargaining power OF the
farmer.
New York has a milk control law
-and now II Is under attack from
a legion OF dairy farmers and CO.
operative managers. The law was
passed with the best intentions in
the world-but, according to observ-
ers, IL has benefited neither con-
sumer nor producer. and often har-
med the interests of both.
Cooperative felling groups have
come TO realize that the road to pro-
gress is through their own efforts
and mass action-not through laws
that often prove boomerangs. Much
that has been done in the name OF
farm relief has proved to be a drag
instead Of a lift.

COURT BILL TALKS
MAY RIVAL MARK
Senate Debate for Months
Likely Unless Compromise
Is Reached.
By the Associated Press.

Senate debate on the Roosevelt
court bill may rival some Of the
most historic congressional contro-
versies, unless a compromise is reached
In the meantime.
Many Senators already are prepar-
Ing the speeches they expect to start
about June l, when the measure prob
ably will reach the floor.
Since virtually every member in
tends to air his views for at least
an hour or two, Senate leaders fore
saw many weeks of argument, barring
a change in the present situation.
There was no question of limiting
debate. Imposition of such rule
would require tWo-thirds vote, more
than either side can muster. Neither
the bills champions nor foes showed
any inclination to muffle discussion.
While Senator Wheeler, Democrat,
OF Montana and few other leaders
OF the opposition said they were ready
for a fillbuster, ''if that proves neces-
sary, there appeared to be little pros
pew dt plSSSllC O1 SuCn an organized
delay.
Senator Burke, Democrat, of Ne
braska, contended the opposition
would welcome an early vote, on the
ground that it is absolutely certain"
Of enough Senators to defeat the bill.
Few congressional attaches ex-
pected any of the addresses to reach
the length Of "Old Bob La Follette's
18-hour Grafton in 1908 or Huey
Longs l5-hour speech in 1895. Those
were delivered during minority filibus-
ters, rather than in prolonged general
debate.
Unless it should drag into next year,
the court controversy cannot surpass
the nonstop oratory mark established
during consideration of the Versailles
peace treaty. It's submission on July
10. 1919, touched off nearly nine
months of continuous argument.
