River and Harbor Bill Debate Delayed by Agricultural Order
In Washington on August 19 the House considered a rule setting four day blocks for agricultural bills while river and harbor measures faced procedural questions. Cannon and McMillen warned of peril, Funston eyed potential obstruction, and the committee-pushed plan won adoption as critics argued it could shelve the river bill. An amendment limiting funds to agriculture and related sciences passed.
