Senate passes relief bill funding Red Cross
The Senate approved a 25,006,000 appropriation for Red Cross relief work with no record vote. The measure, attached to the interior department bill, aims to provide 34,000,00 for public work and marks the first Western state funding under the relief program. Reed proposed a 5,000,000 amendment. Hoover opposed, and a reconsideration motion lingered to finalize disposition. The Senate also eyed Eugene Meyer’s Federal Reserve post amid calls for limited sessions.

The move risks a broader labor crisis as 250,000 other workers in finishing trades may be laid off without weaving work, swelling nationwide economic strain.
