Expect Message to Delay Farm Relief Bill
Washington December 4 The private remark of Weyent Coolidge caused consternation in Congress with both public and private signals pointing to a definite delay of farm relief legislation until his retirement on March 4. The move would push the next farm bill to his successor. Analysts noted the president’s avoidance of tariff policy hints and of agriculture relief revisions, possibly linked to President elect Hoover’s South American trip and criticism of tariffs on South American goods.
