AAA officials estimated today that
they will pay out approximately
8550,000,000 to American farmers for
taking part in the 1935 crop ad-

WASHINGTON, April 6. —

tion permitting conscription of
manpower in wartime.
The bill would give the president
broad powers to commandeer the
nation’s money, public services and
industrial and material resources
to prosecute war.
To prevent uncontrolled price
booms rising out of heavy wartime
demands, the measure would place
a ceiling over all prices upon dec-
laration of war.
The House voted “that upon the
declaration at war there shall be
imposed a tax of 100 per cent on
all excess war profits that may be
earned during said 'period of war
Senate Schedule Expected
On this, tiie Senate was expect-
ed by some House members to at,
tempt to hang a specific tax sche-
dule, so drastic as to restrict cor-
porations' war earnings to 3 per
cent at their investment and in-
dividual incomes to around the s8,-
000 limit of a major general.
The three per cent limit was op-
posed by a war department spokes-
man earlier in the day before the
Senate munitions committee.
It was generally expected that
considerably difficulty would be en-
countered In reconciling all the dif-
ferences.
The McSwain bill and the one
approved by the munitions com-
mittee differ in many respects.
The House had voted to send the
bil back to committee to eliminate
the conscription provision. The
committee, on the floor. Instantly
did so, and passage came in a few
minutes.
Meanwhile, Um Mr department
put before the Senate munitions
committee its opinion that three
per cent limitation-oa war prots
might endanger loss at a Mr. Some
committee members, however, stuck
to their view that such a limitation
should stand. •

on Same Program

NEW YORK, April 9-(—Her-
bert Clark Hoover of Palo Alto.
Calif., and Alfred Emanuel Smith
of New York were better acquainted
today
Responding to invitations of the
citizens, appeal for the salvation
army, the former president and his
1928 opponent for the 'presidency
spoke from the same platform last
night.
On behalf of the army’s campaign
for 5500 000 to balance its 81,887,-
725 budget for the next fiscal year,
the two men emphasized the need
for continued support of private
charity despite government relief.
Before the meeting they were
guests at honor at a dinner. Walk-
ing side by side, they led the grand
march of patrons and patronesses
and chatted good-naturedly while
taking their places
Mr Hoover made no mention of
the 1928 campaign but Mr Smith
said:
"Close to seven years ago Presi-
dent Hoover and I were talking at
each other from various meeting
places throughout the United
States Tonight we are talking at
you, but we are talking in the in-
terest of the salvation army drive."

are now being attacked in ‘Con-
grew.
AAA officials generally express the
view that the current programs are
emergency and temporary adjust-
ments to remove heavy crop sur-
pluses that existed at the tim the
AAA wa« created. Now, they say the
time is ripe for making permanent
adjustments in each region. ’
Under such a regionalized pro-
gram. the South, for instance, would
be divided into sub-region*, such
as the large-scale cotton area of
Texas and Oklahoma, the delta cot-
ton section of the Lower Mississip-
pi and the Piedmont section
Wheat growing areas would be
similarly divided and each section
would be allotted a proportion of the
total crop roductiop.
This, however, would be only part
of a long-time program which win
include promotion of farm owner-
ship, rural rehabilitation. soil erosion
control and government purchase
at sub-marginal land. Farmers try-
ing to make a living on poor land
would be moved to richer aoil.
Will Smith, Frisco, here Tueacday

to town early so as to get back

a good rain this Tuesday, will be
considered as one of the best
prophets Denton has produced. He
said it would rain by Tuesday night:
his prediction, to some extent, has
already come true. The watch-chain
prophet places himself in an em-
barrassing position, regerdless of
the outcome of his prediction for
