Battle Looms On TVA Proposals
Washington June 20 The administration power and utility program faces drastic changes in the house. The military affairs committee backs a compromise measure limiting TVA authority while an interstate commerce sub committee rejects abolition of utility holding companies. The bill would bar sales below production costs after 1938 place procurements under the comptroller general and require accounting to the Federal Power Commission. Chairman McSwain predicts a brisk floor battle despite expected vote changes.
