Farm Legislation In State
Of Confusion, With Various
Proposals Being Discussed
By FRANCIS M. LE MAY
WASHINGTON, July 13 UP)
All House Democrats were
called to a caucus yesterday In a
drive by administration leaders
to bring order into congressional
confusion over farm legislation.
The party mass meeting con
sidered a bill from the House
Agriculture Committee. This bill,
while repealing the Aiken bill
enacted by the Republican-controlled
80th Congress, would per
mit only a three-crop trial run
next year for the Truman admin
istration's farm subsidy plan.
House Republicans, meanwhile,
appeared to be organizing a drive
to set aside the Aiken law in 1950
and continue the present farm
program, with rigid price sup-
durum:
Washington, 58,000; 17 and 9,-
860,000.
Barley:
Oregon, 311,000; 30 and 9,330,-
000.
Apples (commercial) (produc
tion only):
Washington, 30.340,000 bushels;
Oregon, 2,800,000; California, 8,-512,000.
Peaches (production only):

ports on major crops for another
year.
Chairman Cooley (D.-N. O'of
the House Agriculture Committee
and Rep. Pace (D.-Ga.), author
of the farm bill the committee
has approved, assailed the Aiken
law set to take effect next
year as a step to farm bank
ruptcy. Moreover, Pace told the House
Rules Committee "we could not
accept" the Truman administra
tion's entire "Brannan plan."
Pace explained: Without a trial
run, the committee cannot esti
mate the cost, doesn't know
whether it is practical adminis
tratively, and it isn't sure that
consumers would get any benefits
through the production payment
or subsidy idea.
The administration's controver
sial program was drawn up by
Secretary of Agriculture Bran
nan. He contends It would mean
lower cost food for consumers and
stable income for farmers.
It proposes that many crops
sell at what the market will pay,
and then payments would be
made in cash from the Treasury
amounting to the difference be
tween the average market price
of a crop and the government's
Sunday Liquor Sale Ban To Get Official Ruling
cfatttf .Tulv 11. UP) Sun
day ban on sale of liquor in Wash
ington is going to get an official
ruling by Attorney General
Smith Troy. State Representative
John L. O'Brien, Seattle, said he
will ask Troy for an opinion on
established support price. y
The Pace bill, approved by the
Agriculture Committee, would
permit Brannan to try out the
idea on three crops. Pace said he
thought the secretary would
select wool, potatoes and eggs.
The hog crop has been mentioned
previously, instead of eggs.

quor sales.
Troy told O'Brien he expected
to study the subject approximate
ly two weeks before delivering
his opinion, because of the im
portance of and high public in
terest in the subject.
Golf clubs in particular, along
w'th many others, have suffered
under the Liquor Board's inter
pretation of liquor-by-thedrlnk
law. They were dispensing liquor
on Sundays under the old club
licenses. Now they are required
to close from midnight Saturdays
until 6 a.m. Mondays.
