Budget Bill Passed In House As Senate Set Next Action
In Washington on June 5 the House repassed the budget bill after amending to meet President Wilsons objections and sent it to the Senate. The president called the bill unconstitutional for limiting his power and the comptroller generals removal. The vote was 178 to 104 amid Democratic support. The Merchant Marine Bill, approved by both chambers, was sent to the president and would create a seven member shipping board and allow ship purchases in installments. Adjournment set for four p.m. as lawmakers cleared calendars and discussed Armenia mandate, rivers and harbors funding, and defense measures.
