Congress faces closing short session with radio bill in doubt
Washington March 1 Congress prepares for a peaceful close to the short session of the seventieth congress. A senate debate on extending the radio commission’s life faces a possible cloture vote. The Jones bill to stiffen liquor law penalties heads to the president. The reapportionment bill is dead in the senate. Irvin Lenroot’s nomination to the Customs Appeals court is being vigorously opposed. The houses aim to clear dozens of minor claims bills and consider Sunday sessions if needed.
