Senate Exclusive Farm Relief Debated as House Passes
The house approved its general farm relief bill by a 367 to 56 vote and sent it to the senate. Hoover backs export debenture opposition and senate leaders expect a quick vote on the debenture provision, likely to fail, with 7-8 Democrats against and 10-14 Republicans for. The senate bill mirrors a federal farm board with a 500 million dollar revolving fund to aid cooperatives and stabilization bodies in aiding farmers toward prosperity.
