Bold legislative scheme to pass farm bill opposition
A sweeping plan by farm blocs aims to move the McNary Haugen price stabilization bill through Congress in six days. They will seek cloture in the Senate to force a vote, then push the House to adopt the Senate version, with President Coolidge expected to sign. The move unites farm and banking factions, and hinges on swift proceedings and strong party support.

Penn Hospitals Seek Increased State Aid for 1927-29
The Fish administration budget proposes an aggregate $5,000,000 for state aided medical and surgical hospitals for 1927-29, about $501,000 more than the current years. Some bills in the Senate seek higher figures for separate hospitals, while others aim to double or triple aid for certain institutions. Allocations would reflect the rate of free service provided by hospitals, signaling a shift in how appropriations are set.
