Amendment 10 relief measure sparks dispute in Senate
Washington reports the Fess farm credits bill faced new contention as an amendment would allow an authorization charge on loans to farmers via a $100 million fund for cooperatives. Senator Fess, Republican of Ohio, cited endorsements from Federated Growers and the Alabama Farm Bureau. Senator Norris pressed if they knew about the amortization plan before sending messages. The White House offered no comment, trusting the senator's judgment. Senate debate continued with uncertain support and a late vote anticipated. A separate note had Senator Caraway accusing Secretary Jardine of urging field agents to push farm groups to endorse the bill by telegrams. He quipped about the secretary’s need for information.
