The House paused a vote on the O'Mahoney basing-point bill, while a Senate move by Senator O'Mahoney of Wyoming seeks to localize pricing under the basing-point system. The measure would affect cement and other heavy industries by standardizing delivered prices based on the basing point mill, shifting freight costs to buyers farther from production. This approach aimed to equalize price levels regardless of purchase location, though it complicates pricing dynamics in cement markets.

O Dwyer Exit Reshapes New York City Election Outlook
The Mayor declines another term, health and burden cited, while discord with Tammany Hall fuels speculation he may later run.
