Hoover Wins Campaign for Economy Bill in Omnibus Plan
Washington April 18 The House economy committee voted to submit President Hoover's economy program as an omnibus bill seeking $206,000,000 in annual government cost savings. The move signals a near surrender to Hoover as the panel aims to group all measures under one package and bring the omnibus bill to the House later in the week. The salary cut provisions will be included in the omnibus rather than attached to the appropriations bill. The navy appropriations bill will be addressed first to gain time for shaping the omnibus. Representatives Williamson Ramseyer Ta and others expressed cautious optimism after hours of deliberation.
