" demanded that congress quit
and go home. Senator Arthur II.
Vandenberg, R.. Mich, said: ut
is perfectly obvious that congress
has reached a state of exhaustion
and if it has any consideration
for the country it will go home"
Minority Leader Senator Charles
n. McNary, R., Ore, observed
that congress should adjourn out
of respect to the country"
Likewise, Mr.. RoOsevelt's lieu
tenants canvassed the sentiment
on the Administrators program.
They found strong senate OPPOSE
ton to the greatly modified wages
and-hours bill. Speaker William
B. Bankhead. Dem, Ala, of the
house conferred with President
Edward O'Neal of the American
Farm Bureau Federation, and al
terward demanded legislation to
cope with threatened bumper
crops this year.
"Unless we act, we will be CEN
sored," ne warned. But at the
time he spoke, the senate agricui-
ture slammed the door on chances
of a general farm program at this
session. 1t named subcommittee
to hold regional hearings on a
sweeping farm program and asked
for money to defray the cost OF
these hearings.
Sen. Ellison d. Smith. D.. 5. e.,
chairman of the agriculture COM
mittee, informed the senate there
would be no general farm legisla-
ton at this session and was
promptly challenged by Senator
Hugo Black, D.. Ala, chairman OF
the senate labor committee. BLACK
who is up for reelection next year,
has been criticized in Alabama Tor
pushing the wages-and-hours bill;
His reply was that the labor Dill
was essential to the weIibeing OF
agriculture and that ne would
push for remedial farm Legislation

BILL PASSES
$750,000 Fund Authoriz-
ed And Appropriation
Will Be Pressed

WASHINGTON, July "a. (UP)
The house in rapid-fire order yes
terday pushed through a bill au-
thorizing s750,000 for a federal
clearing house" institute of can
Ger research. 1t passed within "a
hours after the senate acted and
now goes to President Roosevelt
for signature.
The bill simply authorizes the
money, and campaign to obtain
an appropriation before congress
adjourns was pressed with re-
newed vigor.
Rep. Maury Maverick, D., Tex,
who sponsored another bill pro-
yiding even more money than was
finally authorized, promised to
lead the battle for funds. He said
he would seek to have the $780,
600 appropriation added to the
next deficiency bill to come be-
fore congress.
Beside establishing cancer CEN
ter under the u. S. Public Health
Service, the bill proposes a $780,
900 annual appropriation to be
used to further the Public Health
Services present cancer research
which now requires $4,000, to
purchase radium and to make
grants and aids to existing insti-
tutions engaged in laboratory
work.
The bill as approved bv both
houses was sponsored by Senator
Homer T. Bone. D., Wash, and
Rep. Alfred L. Bulwinkle, D., n.
C. 1t was the first measure ever
passed by the senate to have the
entire membership on the bills
cover as supporters. Bone spent
hours lining up his colleagues.
The measure creates national
advisory cancer council of six
members, the surgeon-general of
the Public Health Service being
an ex-officio member. 1t is pro-
posed that this council include the
outstanding leaders in the field of
cancer research.
In a speech on the floor urging
passage, Maverick pointed out that
one person out of every eight over
40 years of age eventually would
die from cancer.

Gov. Bailey Dems
Nominee To Take
Robinson's Post
Arkansan May Have Oppo-
sion In Person OF Lieu
tenant Governor

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, July "a.
(UP)-Gov. Carl f. Bailey. AZ,
the youngest man in the history
of Arkansas ever to hold the office
of chief executive, last night was
named Democratic nominee to fill
the vacancy left by the late Sen.
Joseph T. Robinson.
Announcement of Gov. Bailey
as Democratic enthusiastically
tantamount to election in Arkan-
sas-was followed by move by
nti-Bailey forces to place an in
dependent candidate in the gen
eral election, probably Sept. Ia.
The choice by the Arkansas
Democratic executive committee
of naming a candidate rather than
halding primary election fol-
lowed recommendations of a five
man subcommittee which said:
owe believe the central COM
mittee should make the nomlna-
ton of an outstanding, fearless
Democrat who is thoroughly IN
sympathy with the views of Presl-
dent Franklin d. Roosevelt
1t was reported Bailey probably
would resign his present office al
ter the general election, REIN
gushing his post to Lieut.-Gov.
Bob Bailey, a political opponent
and no relation to the governor.
Bailey had no immediate COM
ment on his nomination. Close
advisers said it was unlikely he
would make an interim appoint
ment.
Among the men most proml-
nently mentioned for an indcpencc
dent ticket was Grady Miller, OF
Little Rock, brother-in-law OF the
late Senate Majority Leader Rob-
inson.
