Farm Sugar Bills Cause Quit Tangle
Washington, Aug 11. Uncertainty over farm sugar control and wage hour legislation threw Congress into a preadjournment muddle. House rules debated fast-tracking the wage hour bill while farm program promises lingered. Roosevelt hinted at a possible special session for farm action. Senate finance committee approved a sugar bill with refined sugar quotas to appease administration concerns. Committees delayed major measures as Congress neared adjournment with House approving 38-year revision of bankruptcy laws and McNary allowed to leave for home.
