Senate Rejects Debenture Farm Bill Votes Back to Conference

The bill would create a nine member Federal Farm Board with a $500 million revolving fund to stabilize markets and offer tariff certificates for exported products. President Hoover opposed the plan, arguing it subsidized farmers and favored exporters, and had urged Congress to adopt the debenture.
