Farm members are holding meet ings urging farm legislation in spite of the fact that leaders say there will be no time for a farm bill and that they want members to study up before passing such a bill. If all of the present program is carried out tne leaders hope to adjourn congress by August 2:>. Farm members will continue to fight for some kind of a price stab ilization bill to hold up prices of farms crops in spie of the admin istration’s determination not to allow farm legislation until next January. Members from rural districts feel that if wage and hours bills are passed and housing bills for big cities are passed some kind of a break should be given to farmers who will have to pay higher prices for things they buy as a result of legislation which helps the indus trial east. There will be a desper ate fight for this farm legislation before farm members will allow ad journment of this session of con gress. Too Much Power for Board Those members fighting against the importation of foreign-made merchandise and foreign grown farm products are worried about what to do about the wage-hour bill. If laborers are allowed to work seventy and eighty hours in Europe and the Orient at slave wages and their merchandise is to be allowed to come to our country in com petition with the merchandise made by laborers whose hours are short ened and whose pay is increased, these members feel no good will result. They feel that Americans will just turn over their market to foreiginers and foreign countries where big industry—even some American industry— has already opened factories in order to obtain this cheap labor. The farm members who see mil lions of bushels of foreign grain and millions of pounds of foreign meat and millions of gallons of foreign oils coming into the United States are also worried. That’s why some of the butter, cheese and dairy district members who point quantities of foreign dairy pro ducts coming here, are now asking that the dairy business of our own nation be exempted from the wage hour bill. Cotton farmers who were able to get the cotton indus try exempted are also in the fight. Much opposition to the bill is not against the principle of minimum wages and hours, but against the power to be given a five man board over all wages and hours. The ▲ thought is left in the House that i this is too much power to give to five men who will not he respon sible to the people and also they feel it is a delegation of power which the legislative branch should not surrender to unknown individ uals who will not be responsible to the people.
