Senate actions loom over bonus veto and farm program
Nine Senate votes from last year's bonus fight shape conferees' aim as they seek a path past the veto.

Munitions hearings target J P Morgan partners over a proposed 500 million loan and profits, with senators pressing about support to Allies and reining in war business.
