FRUIT MEN;
Senator Borah Will Press
Measure to License-and;
Regulate All Commission J
Dealers in Fruit and
Vegetables Has Support
Producing Organizations.
WASHINGTON, Hay 25. lP)
An effort to add an additional fea
ture to the farm relief program un
der consideration In the special
congressional session is about to
be seriously undertaken by Senator
Borah of Idaho, who is pressing
for immediate enactment of a
measure to license and regulate all
commission dealers in fruits and
vegetables. A bill incorporating
his ideas on the subject, which has
: laid dormant more than a year, has
now been picked up and reported
out of committee tor passage, and,
in view of the senator's own influ
ential position and the unanimous
supxrt accorded for Its principle
by farm organizations, it is llke.y
to receive more than ordinary con
sideration. , ,
"I have given notice that the
measure is ready for attention,"
' Senator Borah' said of the proposal,
"and that I will insist upon its
early treatment In view of the pur
K)se for which the seclal session
was convened. We have had con
siderable objection to its original
form from produce merchants, but
in several conferences have sought
to Iron out some of tha differences
until I believe now there is every,
likelihood of .its acceptance. Of
course, every fruit- and vegetable
producers' organization favors its
enactment." , . .
'WASHINGTON. May to
The house conferees on-the farm,
relief bill left the cumuiencu iu ,
with a declaration that when tho
senate was ready to yield on the
exiKirt debenture plttii theycwould
begin arbitration on other phases
of the differences.
The conference, after almost a
week of negotiations with little.
progrcss toward a reconciliation of
the differences, apparently had
reached a deadlock which brought
n-hat amounted to an ultimatum
from the house group. I
House conferees express a will
ingness to reopen the conferoncj
when the senate group was ready
to have the export debenture plau
romoved from the bill.
