Mr.. Underwood of Alabama, mem
Der of the committee on ways and
means, said that he believed the con-
sensus was in favor of closing general
debate and that an order was not
necessary. He declared, however, that
the only question of difference was
as to how the bill itself should be
considered. He opposed voting en-
bloc on amendments and the various
amendments and the various provi
ions of the bill.
