Show Regular G. O. P. Not Disturbed Washington, D. C. Information collected col-lected from the west by Washington on the one phase of politics that is most acute, is to the effect that the administration and the regular Republican Repub-lican party has no occasion for grave apprehension. These reports say that the backers of the Haugen farm relief bill are, as a whole, in a state of indecision in-decision about what to do now; and that as to some of the most important individuals in the group, they are in a state of outright dissent from all suggestions for continuing the fight. Meantime, the other farm leaders, who have always favored the perfection perfec-tion of cooperative marketing as the best form of farm relief, are taking energetic steps to strengthen existing associations, organize new ones, and bring all into unity. This work is being stimulated from Washington, where a new division of cooperative marketing has been set up in the department de-partment of agriculture. In a wider sense, the crystalized pelicy of the administration is to assume that all the debate about other forms of farm relief is over and done. |
