Leasing Bill One Of First To Be Introduced In Congress
Washington May 20 Among the first bills in the extra session opening yesterday is the leasing bill, a measure blocked by filibuster in the last session. Western lawmakers seek quick action while appropriation bills demand attention. Debates over the League of Nations and the Treaty loom as obstacles. The plan to share royal ties with the federal government faces House action, with Mann opposed and Mondell likely to push the bill. Conservationists prepare to oppose any leasing legislation strongly.
