Washington April S.-Careful anal
ysis Of the conference report on the
legislative appropriation bill shows
that Speaker Caunon's automobile will
be cared for at government expense

maintenance of the presidents car had
been retained and the amendment re-
lating 10 the speakers car had been
rejected.
Technically that is what happened
but as a matter OF fact the $500 app
propriation for the speakers car was

into a lump appropriation Of $4,000 SO
IL appears that there Is 20 be no dis
