Congress lines sharpen as Truman backs major bills
The 81st Congress faces a clearer split over defense first versus aiding foreign allies. An unusual New Year’s Day House meeting cleared the way for Truman to push major emergency measures. The Senate rejected a War Powers Act reshuffle, while Alaska and Hawaii statehood bills stalled. End-of-session items include a $1.85 million Southeastern Power Administration item, a $3.3 billion excess profits bill sending to the White House, and a railroad union shop and dues check off bill. The government would gain record tax revenues but fall short of Truman’s requested extra revenue.
