The Tincher and CurtiB-Asweii bills has" been offered to the house as substitutes for the Hau gen price stabilization bill. Under the rules now enforced the two alternate measures must be offered as originally drawn and those seeking to combine them are convinced that their efforts would be defeated by preliminary rules unless these can be. changed. Meanwhile friends of the Haugen bill are preparing to fight the new move, contending the two measures must be considered separately. As soon as the house convened Representative Tincher, Republi can, Kansas, withdrew his bin to make way for the Aswell measure. The bill proposed to authorize an appropriation of 1,175,000.000 and levy sales fees on basic farm com modlUes to be used to handle the farm crop surplus. Its defeat, accomplished under the leadershlpinent of Rankin, Re publican spokesman In the house and in accordance with the ap parent desires ot the administra tion, leaves congress Just where It began weeks ago in its effort to agree oh farm relief legislation. Two other farm bills, the Tinch er rural credit aud Aswell commo dity marketing measures, are on the house calendar, but where a majority can be mustered for eith er of tliein remains debatable.
