Bilbo Filibuster Promises $24 Million Save For Capitol
Senator Bilbo begins a long filibuster to block a bill repealing a 50 percent railroad rate cut for wartime and land grant military shipping. He argues the savings could fund a new capitol building, claiming $24 million saved if he stalls for 30 days. Critics counter war-time figures with peacetime shipping costs, noting the estimate may be inflated and the plan debated in Washington and Chicago areas.

Republicans vow to reopen inquiry into Roosevelt loan
Washington reports that Republicans on the Ways and Means Committee say they will press to reopen the inquiry into Franklin D. Roosevelt's $200,000 loan. Rep. Curtis of Nebraska notes difficulty due to a Democratic majority, but the minority insists the case has barely begun. Democratic records show Elliott, son of the late president, pledged further payments to John A. Hartford, lender and head of the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Co., who settled for $4,000.
