WASHINGTON. June 20 (AP)
President Hoover has had his
first experience In dealing with
congress and found the going
mything but easy . during the
first part of the special session
he called to enact farm relief
mrt tariff revision legislation.
After much maneuvering and
m open controversy 'With the
senate, he got about the sort of
'arm aid measure ho wanted, but
lust how close the tariff bill will
;omo to his views remains for
.he future. The measure pass
id by the house is regarded by
mine of his friends as not being
n accord with hts Ideas of eith
er limited or necessary revision.
Although repuhllcun major
ties In both houses were' in
creased In the election which
wvpt Mr. Hoover Into the presl
1oncy, he found a situation on
::apltot hill very similar to that
faced by his predecessor, with
the republican Independents of
the senate able to wield the bal
mce of power as between the
regular republicans and tho
lemocrntH.
Besides tho fnrm bill, . the
president obtained one other
measure which he desired, pro
viding for .reapportionment of
.he house and the taking of the
lext census, but was blocked In
;ho senate In hlti effort to post
