WASHINGTON, May 32. The ad ministration seems to be positively bored with the new agricultural pro- vw.,.1-gram, ric n i u v a n V Rooflvett says It la v'not administration legislation and he does not know whether he Is for , It. A g r 1 o u'ture Secretary Wallace yawned the other day that It was not ' hla baby and. In ; tact, he did not , like Its tariff re- : Paul Ma I Ion duct Ion proposal. I House Farm Chairman Jones la being quoted a& murmuring drowsily that the hearings may last a long, long t'ma because It Is not an administra tion bill and must be looked Into carefully. Farm politico are telling newsmen to point out clearly In their stories that It Is not an administra tion bill. These four negatives may not make an affirmative, but they certainly make a very lntere&tlng situation. The moat noticeable result has been to make everyone In congress and else where a little sleepy. Some say It la just spring fever, but there la other evidence that It may be Just plain old-fashioned political fever. In fact, all observers able to keep their eyea open In the face of these soporific Influences agree the bill contains everything the administra tion wants, from soil conservation benefit payments to Phanoh Wal lace's ever normal granary. In other . words, it isn't an ad ministration bill, but it Is, Parentage of the child Is being claimed by capable Edward A. O'Neal, president of the American Farm Bu reau Federation. As a proud father, be will say the agriculture depart ment knew nothing about it. If pressed, however, Mr. O'Neal will also add that, of course, his two 'egal drafters did not have all the neces sary statistics and Information at sand for their work. They naturally wanted the best dope, and wondared where they could get It. After deep bought, they happened to think of you guessed It the department of agriculture. Now Mr. Wallace Is not the kind ol man who would deny help to his best friend, Mr. O'Neal, especially In dis tress. In his blg-hcartcd way, he agreed not only to send Mr. O'Neal statistics and Information, but his ewn general legal counsel, not to draft the bill oh, no but merely to hand Mr. O'Neal a statistics now and then. Of course, some inaccurate newsman here will probably be so Inaccurate as to speculate that Mr. O'Neal could get a better statistic from one of Mr. Wallace's statisticians than from his lawyer, but everyone knows how patient Mr. Wallace has slwaya been with newspaper Inaccur acies. There appear to be many reasons why this is not an administration bill, even though Mr. Wallace's lawyer helped to write it. In the first place the a nti -ad ministration sentiment sweeping congress will not be d'rected against the bill. If the farmers espouse it as their own. Congrct.s men generally are ready to give the farmers what they want, even when It happens to be what Mr. Wallace has been saying in speeches throughout the land that they should have. Furthermore, the bill Is very drastic In scope, possibly leaning to the un constitutional side of the AAA de flslon by the supreme court. For one thing, it repeats the supreme court phrase about "the flow of commerce :n the Wagner decision so frequently as to Indicate the author himself had his doubts He might well have be cause the bill Is obviously designed to control production strongly and ef fectively In spite of the AAA decision. It carries no state set-up tuch as the court suggested was necess3ry to con stitutional production control. As a matter of fact, certain astounded committeemen were unable to ascer tain for several dAya what the com plicated omnibus really docs contain, tnd they are not sure yet. Now, if congress will Just re mi In drousy, the bill may be worked around into a position where It can be shoved through the Isst minute of the session, when everyone Is anxious to get home. Consequently, you musi not let jour mind become so Inaccurate as to believe this Is an administration bill or that It will be passed this sesi'on Catch? Another similar inaccuracy which has tyn gainst around is that Mr R'XHW'velt would send a oower mes sage to congress.

(UP) Senator Hiram Johnson. Republican. California, breaking a long silence. declared tonight that the adminis tration was trying to "save face' by seeking enactment of a Judiciary re organization compromise "infinitely worse" than President Roosevelt's or iginal program. The first statement the veteran California progressive has Issued on the court subject since his original declaration against it, coincided with opposition proposals for an early sen ate vote on the president's original bill. Johnson demanded a fight to the finish on the original court proposal. A compromise, he said, would be dis graceful and humiliating to both aides." The administration Indicated that there would be no decision on the course to be pursued in the senate until after the supreme court de cision possibly Mohday on the so cial security act. The dec ts Ion Is expected to have & vital effect on the court contro versy. Some congressional veterans be lieve validation of the legislation would end pressure for enlargement of the tribunal. Johnson, urging opponents to fight to the finish against any compro mise, said: "This contest, so far as the su preme court is concerned, has degen erated into an effort, on the part of the proponents, to obtain an In cresc of two rather than six. - "Alt sorts of specious arguments are being used In behalf of this 'com--promise.' The 'compromise of course, Is quite as bad as the original scheme; . Indeed, Infinitely worse. Every question of principle vanishes and the 'compromise becomes a mere face-saving device. "If adopted, it would be disgrace ful and humiliating to both sides. The proponents of the plan will have removed every alleged reason for their original proposition, and the scheme would be, In Its nakedness, simply a bold effort to grab control of tho court; and the opponents of the scheme, by acceptance of the 'com promise.' would be absolutely forget ful of the fundamental principles Involved. The opponents have been upon solid ground, fighting for a prin ciple, a principle upon which there can be no compromise. It must bo fought to a finish." The opponents of the court bill appeared confident of their strength. PORTLAND LABOR TEST VOTE NEAR PORTLAND. Ml? 31.
