Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
for its persistence in licensing liquor
sales adjacent to schools and
churches. Arrests for intoxication

Two bills before Congress were
praised by the speaker as help
to remedy these conditions One

for use of scientific tests to deter
mine the degree of intoxication of
motor vehicle operators and admits

second. by Representative Guyer,
would put the District of Columbia
back in prohibition.
Charging that repeal was tragic
failure Mr.. Schmidt declared that
in an educational campaign, we
shall remind the people continually
that prosperity cannot be acquired
by diverting 100000 annually
from legitimate business for the
consumption of alcoholic beverages.
Then we shall urge all good citi-
zens to work and vote for the COM
plete abolition of the liquor traffic"

Enattion Of Program /
To Fix Farm Prices
Seen by Frazier
Bonkheod, However,
Doubts If Sufficient
Booking Can Be Coined
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associat ted Press.
Senator Frazier, Republican, of
North Dakota said today there was
a'good chance of enacting a pro-
gram for Government fixing of farm
prices as a substitute for the present
crop-control law.
Ignoring party lines. 18 Senators
joined yesterday In introducing the
"cost of production" legislation
which some farm leaders have ad-
vocated for long time.
Both the old parties" said Sen
ator Frazier, have been promising
for many years to put the farmer
on parity with industry. This
bill would give all farmers the cost
of production and a profit on food
stuffs consumed within the coun-
try"
The bill was sponsored by 10
Democrats, Republicans, 2 Farm
er-Laborites and l Progressive.
Bankhead Is Dubious.
Senator Bankhead, Democrat, of
Alabama, stanch advocate of crop
and marketing control features i'm
bedded in the present farm pro-
gram, questioned ability Of the
group to muster enough votes.
None of the Senators from cot
ton States who supported the pres
ent act is sponsoring the new BILL"
he said
The principle of the Government
fixing any commodity price is wrong.
When you start on one thing, there
is no end. If you fix the prices on
things the farmer sells. then you
probably will have to fix the prices
of things he buys"
Senator Frazier said the new bill
would continue the present soil con-
servation program, under which
$500 100000 in annual benefit pay
ments is authorized. 1t also would
include crop insurance, surplus re-
lief disposal, and some other fea-
lures of the present act.
Would Get Fixed Price.
Under the new bill, he said, a
farmer could plant. produce and
market all he wanted
He would receive the fixed price
for his share of the domestic mar
ket," he explained. "All the surplus
would be turned over to the Govern
ment for export or warehouse re.
serves. Any income from this would
60 back to the farmer"
The bill would empower the Sec
retary of Agriculture to fix prices
for nearly all farm products NOV.
ing in interstate commerce.
All handlers and buyers of farm
products would be licensed. Failure
to pay fixed prices or other Willfu
violations could result in a $1,000
