C The MeNary H.usgen furm Btulillliatlcm bill was pr.ssed by the senate by vote of 47 to 89. Virtually the same tennte thnt de f it id the measure, 45 to 39, last set s' hi. adopted the bill, which the farm bloc believes will materially reduce the troubles of farmers by a system of government loans to enable them to withhold surplus products from the open market until "a fair price" can be obtained. Favorable action In the house was anticipated by both proponents and opponents, but there was uncertainty as to the attitude of President Cool Idge. Oregon and Washington senators gave a solid vote for the McNary H.iugen farm bill In the senate. Borah of Idaho voted against the bill and Gooding of that state for tt. The man ner In which the farm relief bill would affect the product of the farmer It described as follows: Whenever a surplus of wheat, swine, corn, cotton, rice or tobacco exlrts. a federal farm board, to be selected by the president, would declare an enter gency to exist in the market of the pecified product. Then this board would authorise the lending of any necessary amount from the f 250 000,000 federal revolving fund to cooperative organisations of farm ers throughout the country. With thli loan, bearing 4 per cent Interest, the cccpcrativo organisation would be em powered to pay the farmer a certain fair price for his product, rcgardlest of the market price. The cooperative organization would hold the product from the market until the price came baik to the fair price level. For this guarantee of a fair price the farmer would pay a certain per centage of bis product as delivered to the cooperative organisation. Thl percentage Is called an equalisation fee and would reimburse the govern m.nt with interest for the loans and tlso pay the operating expenses ol 'he cooperative organisation. SENATE TABLES G0URTPRQP0SAL Wash:rtgtcn. D. C The senate voted overwhelmingly against reconsidering the questions of American adherence to the world court. A motion by Senator TrammeU. democrat of Florida, to discharge the senate foreign relations committee from further action on his resolution wlthdravlng the United States from the court, was tabled by a vote of S9 to 10. The action of tabling in the senate kills any proposal so treated, i The British reply on the American world court reservations was received at the state department and was re ported to be virtually a rejection of the fifth American reservation. At the Geneva conference last year the sig natory powers accepted the first four reservations, but rejected the last, through which America refused with out its consent to permit an advisory opinion by the court on matters In which the United States has or claims an interest.
