The reason for the postponement is

requiring many changes OF purposes
and alterations in the figures first made.
When tho subcommittee began their
work they had before them tho draft
OF bill upon which it was believed it
would be any easy matter to secure
agreement, but this bill has been
changed in some respects several times,
and has become SO worn from handling

replace it with q now one. There is
still much demand for concessions on
the part OF senators on minor items, and
many OF tho most important features in
