2. (AP) Kstablishment of a minimum price on four great agricultural commodities was the farm aid plan virtually completed today for consideration in the house during the week. It would guarantee the farmer this price by levying, if necessary, and distributing to him. processing fees that would mount in the aggregate to hundreds of millions of dot-la rs. Put if the processors should voluntarily establish the minimum price levels, they would have no fee to pay.

Four Commodities As agreed upon by the agriculture committee today, the bill is based on the domestic allotment principle and would include wheat, cotton, tobacco and hops. Efforts to include dairy products and rice failed, and a motion to eliminate hogs was rejected 12 to 10. Chairman Jones announced the committee will xote finally on the bill tomorrow, with the intention of reportinp it to the house the same afternoon and making its consideration In order Wednesday. Packers Plan Fight Packers, xvho have led the opposition to the plan, meanwhile planned to carry their fight to the house floor. If they do not succeed in having hogs eliminated, they xvill ask that a corresponding fee be levied on competing meat and poultry products.

The bill already provides that when cotton processing is taxed, the same rate shall be lexied against silk and rayon.

China. Jan. 5. (UP) Combining hand- to- hand street. fi'iting with an aerial bombardment, ese troops tonight had pushed past the great wall into China proper to occupy the important Chinese garrison city of Shanhaikwan.

Complete occupation of the 'walled city, most important strategic point on the Chinese-Manchurian border, was effected after prolonged fighting which began yesterday at 9:30 p.m. i Firing Continues Although Japanese occupied t.h walled city of Shanhaikwan, Chinese machine gunners on the outskirts continued their resistance, reports received via Mukden declared. Later reports from Mukden said the Japanese, secure in the walled city, had ceaseu firing when their occupation was complete, al-thouph the Chinese, apparently awaiting reinforcements, continued firinp machine gun bursts in the outskirts of the city. General Sadao Araki, minister of war. issued a statement paying 'that there xvas no danger of the fightinsr spreading from Shanhaikwan.

He recalled that English. United States and other foreign army contingents are stationed nearby, including; Tientsin, and that the powers have extensive interests in North China. No additional troops will be sent from Japan, Araki said. Blame for the clash -was placed by Araki on the young Chinese war lord, Chang Hseuh-Liang, who, he said, encouraged the Chinese to challenge Japanese in hope, of restoring- his rule in Manchuria.

if possible, about the depression itself insofar as it applies here. Dissatisfaction with the loth legislature was expressed in the primary and general elections, when a majority of members of the lOtii were discarded by the voters. Fexv members of that session, convening in January. 1931, realized the extent or gravity of the depression, and made little effort at retrenchment. The legislature's special session was largely devoted to making appropriations, its unemployment relief measures being confined almost entirely to tacking "for the relief of unemployment" to bills of every description, in the hope that would secure their passage.

predicted it would dispose of the repeal question Wednesday and said it might be able to report on beer by next week. The Collier beer bill, which passed thr house by a vote' of 230 to Ifi.i. was sent to Blaine's subcommittee with instructions to confine the hearings to arguments on the constitutionality of the measure and to limit them to three hours on each side. The hearing will tie held Saturday at 9:30 o'clock with the aim to complete it that same day and report back to the full committee at its meeting next Monday if possible. The subcommittee will, consider several proposals for redrafting the Collier bill to remove questions of its constitutionality, but Blaine and other members said they did not expect this to delay consideration.

These proposals for redrafting the bill were discussed informally by the judiciary committee today despite the absence of a quorum. One of them, which received favorable comment, xvas to drop the "'tempt to define an intoxicating percentage of alcohol in beer and merely declare that the penalties of the Volstead law shall apply only to those beverages above a certain alcoholic percentage.
