Renewal of wage contract debated in state senate
The senate yesterday accepted an amendment exempting employers with eight or fewer workers while pondering a broader bill taxing one or more workers. Labor spokesman Hussion urged partial benefits on a pay period basis and expanded full and partial settlements. The house set a 10 o'clock session to tackle amendments to the appropriations bill, aiming for a passage vote next day. The term risks extended action to stay within a 60 day limit. The administration pushed a bipartisan administrative board and other measures including quarterly income tax payments and restoring dormant accounts. The senate approved a seven member defense commission and a state planning board as a statutory body, and considered a pollution control commission and juvenile rights protections. The governor received interim appointments and resignations as the senate planned executive sessions. Hospital notes report several local patients undergoing surgeries and admissions.

Cabinet, OPM map aid for Britain in wartime loans
Early outlined a system where cabinet officers with military advisers determine which materials can be loaned or leased to allies while the Office of Production Management fits replacements into production. Roosevelt confers with State War Navy and Treasury officials on aid, then OPM decides if replacements can be funded to keep US defense strong. Senator Wagner urged prompt action on the British aid bill, warning that axis victory would drain US resources and threaten democracy. Schwartz criticized the Senate for delaying as Germans threaten England.
