Farm relief bill defeated amid party line split in House
The McNary Haugen farm relief plan failed in the House after last minute amendments to shrink its scope. Democrats and Republicans from the Middle West and Northwest broke ranks to back the bill while Eastern lawmakers and many Southern Democrats opposed it. The measure would have created a $200 million government corporation to sell surplus farm products abroad and tie farm prices to general commodity levels. A narrowly revised substitute was rejected. National farm group representatives said a conference in St. Paul, Minnesota, July 17 and 18 would organize a broader campaign for agricultural justice.
