WASHINGTON, June i1—A plan
for nolving the congressionl farm
relief problem was adopted tonight
st n conference of Senate and House
leaders with President Hoover.
Republican loaders of the house
agreed at the meeting to bring that 4
branch to a direct veto upon the ex-
port debenture plan within a few
PAys, probably Thursday. Under the
dkheme worked out the vote would
e?ne upon a question of instructing
house conferees against the deben-
ture plan.
Chairman McNary of the senate
agriculture committee, after the con-
ference, expressed the belief that
should the house defeat the deben-
ture plan by a direct vote, members
of the senate who had favored this+-.
method of agricultural relief would
yield to the views of the administra- .
tion.
in addition to Senator MeNary, the
eonference was attended by Senator
Watson of Indiana, the Republican
leader, Senators Reed of Pennsyl-
nia. Edge of Ney Jersey, and Mosea

This move was mads oa the sug-

tives of governors of oil producing

punetuated by denials that any

WASHINGTON, June 11 —Over-
riding President Hoover’s form relief
views for n second time, the Sonata
today sent back to the House with-
out npproval the agriculture measure
from which the export debenture
provision had been eliminated on ad-
ninistration demand. This action
drew n stiffly worded statement of
condemnation from President Hoover.
The outcome of the legislation to-
night wns in doubt. The Senate
voted 46 to 43 against the compro-
mise farm measure drafted by con-
feres of the Senate nnd House after
listening to a violent attack from
both factions.
Hastily gathering to survey the
situation, Republican leaden in the
House decided tonight to reconsider
the farm measure Thursday under
rules which will permit • direct vote
on the export debenture—* course
which the House previously had
flatly refused to take.
