ers.
Meanwhile, the split within the
House Agriculture Committee
over the farm program threatened
to spread to other members.
While Chairman Jones said the
ever-normal granary plan was
sound and that the Federal Gov
eminent must exercise control to
prevent huge SURPRISES and de.
moralizing prices, the minority re.
port of four Republican members
said:
I'VE do not believe the pro-
posed bill will accomplish any
of the detectives anticipated by
the farmers. In fact, its pas
sage and administration will be
a great disappointment and a
much greater establishment to
them. They will find that no
attempt is made to assure parity
income or cost of production
for either the present or the
future"
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1937-11-29

The drive for prompt enactment
Of the program was launched by
Senate Majority Leader Barley,
Of Kentucky. AS the Senate bill
entered its second week of stub
born debate he called for a final
vote not later than Friday.
SENATE MEETS EARLY
Also, Barley has notified his
colleagues he will convene the
Senate at II a. m, one hour
earlier than usual, until the bill is
passed. House leaders, meanwhile,
urged speedy consideration of the
House bill, to be called up for
debate today. Considered less
controversial than the Senate
measure, the House bill was sche-
duled for approval the end of the
week.
The Senate bill, however. was
headed for additional trouble fol.
lowing President RooSevelt's ad-
monition to keep its cost within
$500, 100000. The President. in q
letter to Barley, expressed hope
the bill will not exceed $780,
100000, but warned Congress it
must find means of providing
additional revenue If it does,
Representative Jones CD of
Texas, chairman of the House
Agriculture Committee, said the
House bill could be confined to
$500, 100000. but indicated more
money would increase the effic.
iency Of the program.
HIT BY ANDERSEN
The Presidents letter to Barley
followed a sharp attack on the
Senate bill by a large bipartisan
bloc seeking to determine the, cost
of the program and fix some linn
itation of expenditures. Estimates
range from $500 100000 by the
Department of Agriculture to 81,
900 900 900 by individual members
of the Senate farm bloc In add

MAY NEED 1T
Mrs. Roosevelt urges that wives
keep up after marriage any skill
they may possess that would make
them employable outside the
home. She points out that they
never know when they may need
it.
I'm the last few years I have
been getting many letters from
women whose husbands have
fallen i'll or died and left them
alone with dependents" she
writes, Those who have had no
training are the most pathetic,
but those who once worked and
then gave up altogether are in
almost as difficult a position.
BUSY CAN'T BE IDLE
Il doubt that it is ever wise
for a woman who has once had
skill to allow herself to lose it
entirely, for, granting that she
makes of marriage a career,
there may come a time when
she will need work and there
will certainly come time when
her children are grown.

WOODRING ASKS
STRONGER ARMY
AS INSURANCE"
Fourth of World Now
Facing War, He Says

Q.N.S). Deploring the relative
weakness of the American Army
as compared with the armies OF
other major powers, Secretary Of
War Woodring today urged that
the nations armed strength be in
creased "as insurance against at
tack"
ASKS AIR STRENGTH
He also asked that the army air
service be maintained at full
strength to thwart any invasion
Of the country. Woodring asserted
one-fourth Of the worlds popula-
ton is involved in actual or threat
ened conflict and this country
should strengthen its defenses.
Meanwhile, Senator Pepper CD
of Florida, recommended the
Senate defer ratification Of a
treaty with Panama, and push
completion of the Florida ship
canal as measures of national d..
tense. He said the treaty should
not be made so long as the Far
East remains in its unsettled state.
CLAIMS CANAL VALUABLE
Under the treaty, he said, this
country Surrenders certain rights
for the movement of troops on
Panama territory. Pepper said
such military operations were
necessary for the protection of the
Panama Canal.
Regarding the proposed Florida
ship canal, the Senator said it
would be invaluable to the military
authorities for the movement OF
troops and supplies.

IN.S). Congress today headed
toward a new major conflict be-
tween advocates of a new spend

and those seeking economy to in

At the same time, even though
the Administration has deferred

continued to force early tax

ing the Administrations keynote
for economy by urging that the
farm program be held to $780,,
100000 and demanding new taxes
to cover any added cost, the ad.
vocates of spending began to draw
their battle lines.
The conflict over spending and
economy, injected into the special
session by Mr.. RooSevelt's stand
on farm legislation, will rise again
in housing legislation and the
Presidents proposal for a cut in
highway funds.
1t was expected to develop early
in the regular session in January,
when Congress being to pass the
huge annual supply bills and is
confronted with demands that the
81 SOC, 100000 relief fund be aug.
mented to care for unemployed
during the winter.
The impending battle will test
President Roosevelt'S strength
against the public works bloc, re.
lief bloc, highway bloc, and other
powerful minority groups.

proposed that "Sterilized" gold be
used to finance a housing drive
while John L. Lewis, CLIO chief.

security reserves in a housing pro

expenditures.

pleted on the reciprocal trade act.
Senators McNary, Republican, of Ore
gon and King, Democrat, of Utah
blocked consideration yesterday.
Senator Holt, Democrat, of West
Virginia, youngest member of that
body, declared in a radio address last
night the Presidents reorganization
proposals was not "the American
way"
Packing the court will never solve
the ISSUE" he said. True liberals
want an honest court. A man who
will go to the court with a promise
to support any legislation Is unfit to
be on the bench"
The proposal, he asserted, gives no
assurance to workers and farmers that
the reorganized court would approve
q definite legislative program, because
"those appointed may turn on the
Executive and refuse to follow his
ideas"
Chairman Summers said today the
House Judiciary Committee had de-
cided to delay consideration of the
Presidents court program until after
the Senate had acted.
"The Senate has already determined
upon hearings and has fixed the date
| for starting them," he said. There
is no reason why the House should

proposing a guaranteed annual in

on minimum wage rates and assurance
Of a minimum number of hours of

have said, would enable the worker
to plan his expenditures and budget
his income.
Homer Martin, union president, has
suggested $4,000 as a proposed annual
minimum.

stitutional amendments so far pro-

Word that the Chief Executive had
discussed the alternate proposal was
the first intimation he might agree
to make any change in his recon-
mendation to increase the Supreme
Court unless older justices retire.
Heretofore, those who talked with
him said he was determined to push
through his reorganization plan with
out substantial change because he be-
lieved 1t was the only way the OBJ
jectiveS of his administration could
be realized within reasonable time.
Under the alternate proposal he
still would have assurance of a court
reorganization unless a constitutional
amendment was adopted. An amend
ment would be submitted to the people
at the same time the reorganization
bill was enacted, or earlier.
The court bill then would carry
provision delaying its effective date
until some time next year, with a
clause that it would not go into effect
even then, if the constitutional amend
ment, meanwhile. had been ratified.
