Senate farm tenancy loan bill faces quick Senate vote
Washington June 10 Senate farm leaders hope to pass this week a tenant loan bill altered to fit President Roosevelt’s wishes. An agriculture subcommittee approved it, the full committee was convened, and a Senate vote could come tomorrow. The measure would authorize 10 million dollars in loans next year to help tenant farmers buy homes, rising to 25 million and 50 million in the following years. Senator Bankhead had urged 50 million annually for 10 years, but the President asked a reduced total under his economy plan. If enacted, it would be the first farm bill of the session. Hearings on the agricultural adjustment act of 1937 continue amid calls to speed passage regardless of drought conditions. Secretary Wallace backs action and will testify before the Senate agriculture committee.
