Housing Bill Blocked In Rules Committee Debates
The Home Rules Committee refused to clear President Truman's housing bill. Chairman Sabash will try again next Monday with little hope for a favorable vote. If the rates group remains steadfast the measure could reach a June 27 House vote under a new anti bottlenecking rule. The committee rejected the bill despite Budget Bureau figures showing subsidies costing 20.99 million to 510.0 million annually, not the earlier 400 million. Democratic dissension among House Democrats rose as they adjourned after a brief session. The Senate had passed the measure 31 to 22 on April 23.
