AS it Appears To
Your Congressman
By John r. Murdoch

The annual Agricultural APP
preparation Bill was reported out
and brought before the House
/ Thursday, March %. 1t was de-
bated Thursday, Friday and Satur-
Of last week. The Bill is a lengthy
matter of more than 100 pages and
the hearings occupy nearly 1000
printed pages.It's the largest ap-
preparation bill for agriculture ever
presented to any Congress. AS re-
ported to the House, it exceeded
the budget recommendation by
more than S240,0O0,000 1t is true
that the budget estimates on certain
4 items were cut drastically, and
some of these pertain to Arizona
1 The reason the Appropriation COM
mittee reduced some of the items
below the budget estimate was
largely on account of putting in
! $3.50 900 900 for parity payments
which had not been recommended
by the budget.
The chief fight concerning this
measure was over parity payments.
the opposition contending that the
farmers had not heretofore been
benefited and the program was
driving the country just so much
nearer bankruptcy. On Friday
fierce debate developed on the
majority side of the House between
certain Congressman from Pennsyl-
vania and other Congressman from
the South. Congressman represent
ing the industrial centers resented
the fact that certain Southerners
insisted on looping off S5O,OOO.O09
from the Presidents recent request
for WPA appropriation, and yet
these Southern Democrats asked
for including $250000,O00 for the
farmers. and some even wished to
double that amount.
For weeks Congressman from the
farming areas. both Democrats and
Republicans, have held informal
meetings each Tuesday evening to
discuss "cost of production" legis-
lation. This was spoons or
prominently by men from Okla
homa In contrast to this proposed
legislation for farmers, Marvin
Jones, Chairman of the House Agri-
cultural Committee, favored the
present program about as set up in
the Agricultural Act of 1888. Still
other men from Oklahoma and
Texas hoped to raise the appEopria-
ton for parity payments TO $780,
900 900.
Congressman Kelberg of Texas
made valiant fight, backed by the
Texas delegation and others, to in
crease the amount in the bill for
pink boil worm control, but his
proposal for increase failed. Jed
Johnson of Oklahoma put through
an amendment in the Committee of
the Whole House to shift more Of
the appropriation for soil conser-
walton for use in the field by
limiting the amount that may be
used in Washington. The Dean of
the House of Representatives the
veteran Congressman from Chicago,
Mr. SABBATH, while claiming interest
in agriculture, successfully opposed
several provisions in this years
bill.
