The chamber also moved to shield rifle clubs from the prohibition and gave a 2 to 77 vote on another measure, with final action delayed.

Watson Wins Point Mail Service May Not Have to Be Curtailed
Washington AP The Senate Post Office Committee met in a closed session and adopted a measure to exempt the Post Office Department from planned federal employment cutbacks. Postmaster General Watson said the understanding shown by House and Senate committees encourages that mail service may not have to be curtailed. He warned that without congressional action the Post Office would likely cut Saturday delivery, deny service to new homes and offices, and close many small post offices, eventually dropping to four day delivery. The report notes the rollback would affect about 80,000 of 741,600 workers over four years. Confined on Page Two.
