SENATE FARM COMMITTEE
EARS AGREEMENT
Washington, Nov. 18 The
senate agriculture committee
made progress toward agree
ment on the farm control legis
lation today, bringing with it!
some promise of a break in aim
less debating which has held the
interest of the special congres
sional session. .
The southern filibuster
against anti-lynching legislation
was carried on further in 'the
senate by Senator Bailey (D
XC). Chairman Smith (D-SC)
reported, however; that an "ever
normal granary" farm bill pat
terned after administration re
commendationswould be ready
Monday to displace the lynching
measure. , . ,
If Smith's prediction is cor
rect, the first of the four point
program recommended by Pre
sident Roosevelt will be brought
before the special session one
week after convening. The other
points are wage hour, regional
planning, and executive reor
ganization legislation.
Granting of some exemptions,
to all corporations, from the un
distributed profits tax which
has been assailed by business
was discussed by a house tax
sub-committee. No final agree
ment was reached on such an is
sue. Chances for the wage-hour
bill depended largely on break
ing a deadlock in the house rules
committee unless a discharge
petition, signed by 105 house
members, gets 113 more signa
tures. Because of the time wasted in
filibuster, leaders indicated that
the prospects for government re
organization and regional plan
ning were greatly dimmed.

LAST SATURDAY
Students Violate Honor
System By Selling
Tickets
Herman Schnell, athletic offi
cial, hotly protested yesterday
against illegal use of student
passbooks and declared it was
one of the greatest breaches of
the honor system he could imag
ine. Schnell made the comments
after it was found that approxi
mately 46 students ; had pass
books taken from them at the
Duke-Carolina game for illegal
use. He said the number caught
last Saturday was greater than
at all other games combined.
Fuss
"Much fuss has been made
lately on the athletic depart
ment's breaking the honor sys
tem, but students who pay $3.33
for a passbook, use it for every
game but one and sell it at that
time for $5 certainly break it as
flagrantly as can be done," he
said.
"If I had my way, everyone of
them would be brought before
the Student council and tried
for breaking the campus code,"
he continued.
