Senate Amends Wages Rule on $4.88 Billion Work-Relief Bill
The Senate appropriations committee voted 12 to 8 to require prevailing wages on all public projects under the administration work relief bill. The move clashes with plans to keep wages below private industry levels, while restoring a provision enabling purchase or eminent domain for western lands to advance the Vastier belt program. House Speaker Byrnes warned against deep cuts, while insurgents, led by Glass and three other Democrats plus McCarran, pushed to trim the bill by about two billion.
