Congress waits on river and harbor bill adjournment likely
Washington dispatch reports Congress may adjourn Thursday if the river and harbor bill is signed. The measure, approved in conference, faces possible presidential veto and a Senate vote on related bills. The author notes impending waits and personal vacation plans.
