Postal Bill Passes Amid Subsidy Vote Flaws
The House approved the post office appropriation bill granting subsidies to the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe railroads. Mr Moon of Tennessee failed to strike the subsidy provisions, 106 to 102, and later failed to recommit 93 to 6. The bill allocates 142000 to Southern Pacific and 54000 to Santa Fe. An amendment by Walter I Smith allowing second class mail for charitable institutions was defeated on a point of order.
