Proceedings of Congress and Committees In Brief
The house met at noon on December 12 and adjourned shortly after, with routine business planned for the day. Three more ballots failed to decide the Interstate Commerce Committee chairmanship as insurgent Republicans shifted to Ruta, while Bruce supported the Democratic nominee. Wheeler introduced a constitutional amendment to empower Congress on child labor. Other items included a proposal to curb excess railroad fares and a bill on wool content, plus education and labor inquiries into diploma mills and graduates as practitioners. Postponed Teapot Dome inquiry had Secretary Fall absent, and veterans' groups backed a committee to assist former service members with adjusted compensation and related issues. A Republican conference may be called within a month if Ways and Means delays a bonus bill. Green announced a constitutional amendment to bar tax-exempt securities.
