Peiping takeover and housing bill wrangle echo in senate
Japanese forces enter Peiping under Maj Gen Kawabe amid leaflets and rumors of Tsuan Tung returning to rule Manchukuo while Tientsin sees salt administration shift. In Washington, Wagner's housing bill faces Byrd amendments limiting rooms to 1000 and family units to 4000, with Tydings curbing state shares and local cost requirements. Green's wage hour push reshapes the measure, defining board powers, exemptions, and protections while aiming for swift House passage.
