I'imI IIK Hz Washington, January 20. ? The ijuestion everybody in Washlng ton is asking everybody else is: "What sort of a substitute tor AAA is the Administration goin,{ to turn out?" Nobody knows the exact answer as yet, but a good many straws in the wind give some indications of what is being planned. The first otraw was President Roosevelt's statement that he was not in farorf of an export debenture plan, which would, as he put it. amount to making a present to Europe of the fertility of our soil. In other jvords, what is being sought for Is1* a method of crop control based upon the necessity of land conservation. The representatives of the farm organizations who were summon ed to meet in Washington are united on the plan that the so called marginal lands should be withdrawn from commercial pro duction, through rental at equit able rates, of such land as may be necessary to promote conserva tion of soil fertility and to bring about a balance of domestic pro duction at profitable prices. Maybe Domestic Allotments Instead of export bounties, it u ? regarded as probable that the Ad ministration will propose a domes - tic allotment system, based on portion of their crops consumed ; ut home. This has been consider ed by Congress many times in the past but never as part of a comprehensive nation-wide plan. The Suppreme Court's decision in the AAA case did not negative processing taxes as such, but only the allotment of processing funds ; to a special class or group. It ls|< held that processing taxes are en tirely within the power of Con-j gress, provided the money so col- j lected goes into the general rev-: enues. and that Congress has a \ right to appropriate, from general revenues, funds for the payment of bounties to farmers for >911 conservation and other purposes. This idea of soil conservation has been one of President Roose velt's pets for a long time. On October C5 he indicated it as the basis of a:iy long-term and per manent agricultural adjustment program, and pointed out that benefits could be made to en courage individual farmers to adopt sound farm management erop rotatiou and soil conserva | tion methods. He was talking then! of the more or less distant future. 1 but it would appear that the i Supreme Court's decision mayi force the immediate adoption of such a plan. Cotton and Rice Suits The dismissal last week by the Supreme bourt of the suit brought to declare the Bankhead Cotton Control act invalid had no rela tion to the merits of the case. It was dismissed on a technicality, as not having been brought before the Court in a proper and legal manner. In the case of the Louisiana rice millers who had obtained au injunction In the lower courts against the collection by the Gov ernment of processing taxes, the Supreme Court ordered the rs turn to the millers of about $200. 000,000 which they had deposit ed with the Courts pending the decision, on the ground that the tax had not actually been col lected. The agitation for Constitution al amendments to give the Fed eral Govern ment greater powers is naturally more active than it has been before. Most of the union labor groups, some of the farm ers' organisations, a very large proportion of the radical element, and the advocates of economic planning by the Government, are expected to back one of tbe pro 'posfcls for amendment, in the hope that the present session of Congress may submit them to the . states. How far this movement will get at this session is rather doubtful. There is no desire on the part of the Administration to make the Constitution an issue in the coming campaign. Certainly the President is not likely to ad vocate Constitutional changes be fore election, which would tend to break down the rights of the i states. Revenues Wanted 1 The killing off of the processing taxes knocked a big hole In the I Treasury budget estimates. These < had been counted on for more than $500,000,000 of revenue. *t I looks as though the Government i would have to pay at least half 1 that amount to farmers under ex isting contracts, so some new way must be found to raise money for this purpose. Alio to pay the bonus. Under any of the bonus plans that are now under consid eration at least a billion dollars of cash will be required. Seemingly, the only answer to this situation is more tax revenues which m?y tltke the form of lip ping the income taxes and extend ing them further down the econo mic line, or the Imposition of a general manufacturers sales tax. The latter plan Is not believed to be popular with the voters, be cause it makes the ordinary man tax-conscious. But the idea is be ing revived on Capitol Hill and It may shortly be taken seriously. Borah Backs Vnndenberg Political Interest still centers ? Lindbergh Host? LONDON . . . Aubrey Nel) Morgan (above), husband of the late Elisabeth Morrow, will likely be host to Oolonel and Mrs. Charles Lindbergh and their son Jon, at his secluded home at Oardiff, Wales. Kidnapping threats at home brought the Lindberghs here. on the question of whom the Re publicans will nominate. Recent developments indicate that Sena tor Borah is really working for the nomination of Senator Arthur Vandenberg. Borah does not want or expect the nomination himself but he wants to control enough delegates so that he can dictate the nomination of Vandehbei'g. The influence of former President Hoover, it is believed, will be thrown to whichever candidate he thinks is best equipped to put up i vigorous knock-down-and-drag out fight with President Roose velt. Governor Landon. it is be ing said her", hp* iffisl rated his fighting spirit and ability. Those who hold that the com Ing campaign will be a battle of personalities regard Frank Knox jf Chicago and Senator Dickin on of Iowa as the two best-equip ped scrappers now in sight. N. C.
