Congress delays crop controls to back farm tenancy aids
Washington leaders defer new crop control legislation to push farm tenancy aid and crop insurance this session. They promise the triple A program for quick passage next year. Action now would delay budget balance and other measures. Chairman Jones agreed to withdraw opposition to tenantry assistance of 10 million dollars, with a 50 million annual cap unlikely. President Roosev elt urged speedy Senate action on the court bill and discussed boosting buying power for the ill housed and ill fed, noting budget balance can come from higher national income.
