75th Congress Ends Business For This Term
The Senate accepted the House method of allotting 212 million dollars in parity payments to farmers as part of the recovery bill. The measure, designed to aid struggling business, moves toward President Roosevelt for signature. A separate action overrode Roosevelt’s veto on extending low interest rates for federal land bank loans. The session signals a closing chapter for the 75th Congress with action on farm relief, rural electrification, and flood control debates.

War Floods and Famine Spread Through China
