I Afofeys I TO APPEAR BEFORE

(Copyright. 1035, by Paul Mallon)
WASHINGTON1, May 17. Those
farmera who came, here to applaud
the AAA actually were farmers. At
least m o s t of
..them were. A
arlvate check
up indicates that
possibly 200 of
the 4500 were
county agents in
directly on the
government pay
roll. The r e a t
were mostly well-to-do
soil super
intendents. southern planters
and large wheat
farmers.
PA I I MALLON
Of couvse -their march was 1n part
a Pullman trek. Many slept In low
er berths. Some stopped at one of
the three swankiest hotels in Wash
ington . wh 1 ch la q u 1 1 1! p vpe naive.
Also some decided to remain over ft
few days and see the sights. Includ
ing the zoo In Rock Creek park and
one in congress.
But, all In all. they managed to
convince the capital that they were
really sons of the soil. As such they
were novelties. Most, of the farmers
aeen around here lately are two or
three times removed from the hoe
farm politicians and anltators, who.
like many labor leaders, discovered
early in life that It la easier to lead
than to labor.
Stories have been going around that
the farm demonstration . waa organ
ised by the AAA to offset the bad
publicity which the farm program
haa been receiving in spots. If you
will investigate disinterestedly, you
will find the facts are these:
The AAA did not directly organize
the move, but certnin officials in the
AAA unofficially encouraged it. and
helped to make it a Bucces. Offi
cially, they arranged for the hall, but
the farmera themselves .took up a
collection to pay for It.' They lent
clerical help from the AAA free. Also
the programs appear to have been
printed by the government, but that
is not entirely clear yet.
Some AAA officisls were consulted
by the leadera of the movement In
advance. Most of these officials ap
parently wrote letters approving the
idea, but at least one did not. He
advised against It because he did
not believe it would turn out as well
an it did from an administration
standpoint.
It haa already been published that
0. H. Day, a Texas corn-hog and
cotton beneficiary, originated the
Idea, but the revealing details of how
the movement waa organized have
not been set forth. It waa built
mainly upon the county control com
mittee In each county and the town
ship committees In most townships.
These committees are made up of
farmera for purposes of the AAA pro
gram, county agents usually are sec
retaries of the control committee. The
AAA may quibble with you If 5011
say the county sgfnta are paid by
the government, but It is fair to say
part of their remuneration comes
from the federal government.
In one typical instance, an AAA
extension editor wrote to a farm
leader in his home district suggest
ing a meeting of farmers be called
for that district. When the meeting
was held, the idea of a march to
Washington was then broached. It
took well. A contribution waa taken
up to pay the expense of a delecate.
Some delegates paid their own w-ay
because they could afford it. The
regular farm lobbying organizations
(like the American Farm Bureau
Federation) had nothing to do with
It any way.

Says Chief Execu- j
tive Ready Saturday i
WASHINGTON. May 17. (AP)
President Roosevelt plans to present
his bonus veto to congress in a per
sonal appearance next week.
He made this known at a press
conference this afternoon after the
senate had completed congressional
action on the Patman inflationary
measure and sent it to him for his
veto.
Preparing to writ the strongest
message at hla command against the
measure, the president told reporters:
"I hope witH all my heart that the
veto will be sustained."
He indicated aome feeling about re
ports on Capitol Hill that the admin
istration would like to see the veto
overridden.
The president will present his mes
sage to a Joint session gathered In
the house. The day haa not been
determined.
He began work on the message to
day and hopes to complete It by to
morrow.

ROSEBURG, Ore., May 17.- (AP)
A proposal that the state make ap
plication for a $25,000,000 grant from
the estimated $40,000,000 allocation
of federal relief funds for Oregon,
to be used for reconstruction of the
Pacific highway from Salem to Al
bany and from Eugene south to the
state line; reconstruction of the
Columbia highway, and construction i
of the Wolf Creek road from Port-
land to the pHMe n, was to he 1
presented today at a meeting of the
Pacific Highway aaaoclatlon In Eu

Harding, secretary of the Roseburg
Chamber of Commerce, former pres
ident of the aaaoclatlon. who has al
ready placed briefs regarding the pro
posal In the hands of Governor
Charlea Martin and members of the
state highway commission.
Would Lump Funds
Mr. Harding proposes that Instead
of parcelling out the public works
allotment for work relief to small
project, that the major portion of
the funds be applied to a program
for improvement of the Pacific and
Columbia River highways, which, it
is stated, carry 90 per cent of the
travel In the state.
The plan, he aeta forth, would dis
tribute work equally throughout the
state and haa the advantage of be
ing ready for immediate adoption, aa
sufficient engineering haa already
been done on many sections to per
mit starting work without delay.
The military advantage of the
plan Is ' also given consideration in
the brief, which states that better
facilities for movement of troops,
equipment and supplies are vitally
needed on the Pacific coast.
