Hoover And Democrats Clash Over Federal Spending Cuts
Washington reports a partisan dispute as President Hoover and Senate Democrats clash over reductions in federal expenditures. House Democrats are accused of not cutting $57,000,000 as claimed, instead allegedly increasing $35,000,000. The appropriations bill for state justice labor totals $103,282,000 with substantial departmental cuts, including the prohibition bureau, and Attorney General Mitchell testifies on maintaining prohibition efforts amid budget changes.

Debt-Relief Plan for Farmers Aims at Wage of Creditors
Washington reports indicate congressional approval may come for a bold Democratic plan to ease farm debt. The proposal calls for nationwide "conciliation commissioners" to negotiate reductions between creditors and debtors, complementing the domestic allotment measure. President-elect Roosevelt backs the move as part of broader farm relief, while Hoover urges bankruptcy-law liberalization. Early sentiment suggests the debt adjustment bill could fare better this session than the domestic allotment, though opposition remains.
