27 (A3)- The bUl imposing a one cent a pound processing tax on rice after March 15 passed the House yesterday and was sent to the Senate. Represetnative De Rouen author of the bill said it had the endorsement of the Farm Administration and was satisfactory to both millers and growers. The bill eliminates the floor and storage taxes and is a substitute for a previous marketing agreement which was disapproved. The rice producing states are chiefly Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas. Critics of the bill contend the tax would increase the consumer price.

This was denied by Representatives Jones (D. Tex.) chairman of the Agriculture committee. Representative Montet La.) said It would enable the secretary of agriculture to stabilize the rice industry. Representative Driver (D said the act moved the date of the tax up from August 1 to permit the sale of present surpluses before the new crop comes in. The bill originaly made the tax effective March 1, but this was amended to March 15.

Another amendment adopted today permits the producer to crack up his cheap rice for livestock feed, De Rouen explaining many growers did not raise corn for feed. De Rouen said other amendments did not affected the bill as originally drawn, except one which provided for expediting payment of warrants. Three principal objectives of the bill are to maintain prices at recent levels throughout the remainder of this marketing season, to move the surplus of rice from 1933 and 1934 crops into trade channels, and to permit a change from the marketing agreement program. The bill provides for Issuance of tax-payment warrants to growers who hold rough rice from 1933 and 1934 crops and to millers holding stocks of rough rice which have been bought at prices specified in the existing marketing agreements and licenses. It eliminates floor-stocks tax on clean rice now held by millers.

Jobbers, retailers and others In the trade in order to exempt from the tax all old-crop rice for which the market agreement price has been paid. Representative McCleallan said rice Interests of hla state favored the tax because It will equalize the situation and protect those who have tried to cooperate under the marketing agreement. Flan To Push Bill Soon For Additional Clerks Is Disclosed Today WASHINGTON. Feb. 27 JP) A test of the strength of the still incompleted secret 100 In the House of Representatives appeared in store today.

It was disclosed that a bill would be pushed soon to let each member hire one more clerk at a total cost of $440,000 a year. The bill was Introduced by Representative White (D -Idaho) who vigorously disavows any connection with the attempt to unify "dissatisfied Democrats into a group of 100 which would vote together and keep its plans secret from the regular leaders. But newpsapermen were informed that the Idea of giving another clerk to each house member had been approved by chiefs of the secret 100. It obviously lacked the endorsement of the regular leaders. At the same time, an organizer of the "secret 100, who asked that his name not be used, told newsmen the fact that such an organization was being formed had forced leaders to promise: 1.

A more equitable distribution oi patronage. 2. A free vote on the bonus, without gag rules. 3 Full consideration of bills to stop the Issuance of tax exempt securities. 4.

Opportunities for consideration of Other legislative proposals favored by a "substantial" number of House members but not on the administrations original program. Furthermore, he added, the Democratic Congressional campaign committee would call soon on James A. Farley, Democratic National Committee chairman, and ask him to allocate for the 1936 campaigns of House members, a fixed percentage of whatever funds are raised. The Congressional Committee, he said has promised to distribute the campaign money on a more equitable basis than In the past, so that the men in doubtful districts will get more and the men In safely Democratic districts will get less. The patronage dispute, he said, was engendered by complaints that some House committee chairmen had gotten more than threescore Jobs whereas some other younger members had gotten only one or two.
