MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 6. 1935. PAGE ELEVEN ) M NARY PUNNING HTHREE-POINT FARM RELIEF MEASURE i Bill Would Seek to Indi rectly Control Surpluses .;. by Optional Application of Three Different Plans IS By I. HAROLD OLIVER Associated Tress Staff Writer. WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. AP) Senator McNary of Oregon, Republi can leader in the senate, announced today he would Introduce on the opening day of congress a three potnt farm relief bill as & basis for a "natural transition from the AAA to a long-time program " McNary hopes'" it will be at least a starter for consideration by con gress In event the supreme court in validates the agricultural adjust ment act. Then, both parties will be looking for a substitute and McNary wants to be prepared. Indirect Control Aim. Unlike the AAA, which sets crop limits for farmers Involved In con trol programs and gives them cash for taking land out of production, the McNary bill seeks indirectly to control surpluses by the optional application of either the equaliza tion fee, export debenture or do mestic allotment plans. It Is the same proposal he pxit forward in 1932. The plan, sup porters eay, alms to segregate- the surplus for export, assist in making the tariff effective on crops, control surpluses by penalizing over-production and stimulate co-operative mar keting. Under the equalization fee plan, the government would take charge of surpluses, which would be sold abroad at the best figures obtain able. The idea would be to raise domestic prices of the crops by re moving surpluses. Farmers would be assessed a fee to make up for losses and charges Incurred In sales abroad. Discourage Overproduction. The government would discourage any over-production by an auto matic step-up In the fee. The export debenture Involves a federa lappropriatlon or bounty. Ex porters of surpluses would receive treasury certificates amounting to one-half the tariff on the similar imported product. Other debenture ratea would be established for com modities on the free list, such as raw cotton. Under the domestic p.'iotmcnt plan, all handlers of farm products would be licensed. It seeks to force CHRISTMAS CARNIVAL COMING The btg red and gold Shell circus van with carnival sjtatcra. gay music and a real live Santa Claus distribut ing North Pole candy to children, will roll Into town Saturday morning, De cember 7. at 10 o'clock, and oe sta tioned cn South Plr street ot Main.

AU carnival per formances are free. of a crop necessary for domestic use at a price not less than the average cost of production for the year. Vio lators would lose their licenses. Under his plan, McNary holds, production would be controlled be cause if farmers persisted in over production, a lessor proportion of the crop .would secure the domestic prices, and a larger percentage would bring the lower prices in the world market. McNary says farmers would be wise enough to adjust production accordingly, American Legion Auxiliary Monday night will be a social meet ing. The officers are to serve re freshments.
