352 AGRICULTURAL RELIEF ir. Kercaay. That is to say, if the cooperative provision of the M:Nary-Haugen bill were placed in this bill you would have no articular objection to it? Co / Mr. Goss. No; that is right. If the cooperative provision of the bill were soundly drawn—and mind you, I do not claim to be an authority on the principles of the McNary-Haugen bill, or, for that matter, an authority on this. But any sound cooperative principles, and I believe those in the McNary-Haugen bill, as I have gone over them roughly, are sound, if they were incorporated in this bill, we would have no objection. We do feel, however, that a board to handle this proposition of difference in cost of production in the most economical way is a separate proposition, and a very direct and economical way of handling it. The CHAIRMAN. Let me ask you another question: Would you be in favor of the provision that the powers of the board should— be exercised in such manner, and the marketing agreements entered into by the board during any marketing period shall be upon such terms as will, in the judgment of the board, carry cut the policy declared. * * * Do you believe in the board carrying out the policies declared by Congress? Mr. Goss. I certainly believe in the board carrying out the policy declared. The Crammax. Are you willing to insert that: in the bill? Mr. Goss. I think it is covered in the bill, Mr. Haugen, possibly not in just the language. you read. I do not know from what bill you are reading. The CuairMaN. I am reading from the McNary-Haugen bill Mr. Goss. I can but state again, Mr. Haugen, that we are trying to bring one principle here, and if there are provisions in the McNary- Haugen bill which would improve this bill, you will not find any opposition on our part. The CramrMaN. You have no objection to going the whole length? Mr. Goss. You can appreciate my position, Mr. Haugen, in having you read sections out of your bill and asking me to say whether they applied to this bill, that I can not do so without sitting down and studying them. The Cuatrmax. I was just calling your attention to a number of things eliminated from my bill, which we have had under considera- tion, and I would like to have your views on it. Mr. Goss. We have not tried to draft this bill by taking sections from another bill or eliminating them; we have tried to build from the ground up on its own merits, without considering anv other bill that might be before the committee. Mr. KixcueLok. In order that all your time may not be taken up answering these questions that are not in the bill, would you mind taking up the provisions that deal with the control features and emphasize them? You have already mentioned that once or twice, but I should be very glad to have you elaborate on that some. . 1 In hi I was trying to go through the bill section by section. unk I can do it if not interrnpted too much before the time expires. far unomay, This is only about 20 minutes left, and I was a rac Jou not get to that feature. which I regard as very
