Shipping Gets
 Some Tough l Sandbagging
(Continued From Page One)

(Continued From Page One) sources of stories of the poor pe- formance of American seamen in recent years. Instances of un- ruly conduct at sea, especially Tn the Pacific trade, were stressed, to the exclusion of records of skill ed and loyal seamanship. That sort of picture is not a good one to thrust before travellers, ship pers, and insurance companies whose business it is to gamble on the prospects of a ship arriv- ing safely with its cargo in good order
 Pay Lower
 As far as American shipping is concerned, such "advertislng spells troublous days. If trade should fall off there will be less profit for the owners and less em- ployment for the crews, The mer- chant marne in general VII cost the Ameican public a heavier subsidy than it. now is paying to keep Yankee ships on the high seas.
 Who is to blame is perhaps de- batalble, but it has been made a matter of record by senate inves- legations that pay of seamen has scaled off since the war in spite of government payments through mail subsidy to keep the ships going.
 Foreign competition is. tough and the owners argue that they get no cargoes unless they haul cheaply, and low costs mean low pay.
 The only immediate solution advanced also has come through the senate Investigations. The remedy there suggested is simp- ly for the public to pay enough into the kitty through subsidies so that seamen can be paid well and still allow operators a fair profit.

WASHINGTON, Nov. q. (uP)
Senator Royal S. Copeland today
presented charges 10 the senate
that farmers who approved the
administrations crop control bill
were not representative of the
nations agriculturistS. Meantime,
the house agriculture committee
today completed its permanent
farm bill, based on soil conscrva-
ton.
WASHINGTON, Nov. "a. (UP)
Republicans and Democrats open
ed a croSs-firc Of criticism against
the scnatc'S "crazy-quilt" crop
control hill yesterday, threatening
plans of harasScd administration
leaders TO speed passage Of the
measure which is No. on Prcsi-
dent Rooscvclt'S legislative pro-
gram.
Irkcd by eight days Of filibuS-
tering and pickering in both
houses, senate leaders pressed the
hodgc-podgc bill to floor debate
anu Majority Leader Alben W.
Barklcy, D., Ky. predicted pass
age within u week despite obStruc-
zionist tactics by opponents.
So great was the hurry that
the leadership did not await for
nal report from the senate agri-
culture committee explaining the
bill. This will be ready today.
Meantime the senate spent an af-
ternoon Of pratory on the ncces-
sity of aiding the farmer but
made no Sp8cific recommendations.
When perpleXed senators asked
for details Of the bill Chairman
Ellison D. Smith, d., S. c., of the
agriculture committee, replied that

Senate Minority Leader Charles

usual maneuver, forced the clerk
to read the entire senate bill. All
but 10 senator's left the chamber,
and the remainder dozed or wrote
letters.
At one stage of the discussion,
Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, R.,
Mich, demanded to know how
much the bill would cost the gov
