the necessary two-thirds majority. Later
the bill was taken up in the ordinary way.
The principal subject OF contention in the
measure IS the item authorizing the estab-
Ilshment Of r fidelity division in tho Treas
ury Department, to compete with private
companies bonding government employees.
\ number of Democrats, including those
from Observation-Disclosures being the home
OF many bonding companies-opposed the
provision.
The House consumed an hour in debating
whether Elliott Woods, superintendent Of
the Capitol grounds. was entitled TO $500
for services rendered TO the Building Com
mission for the House office building. The
compensation was finally allowed on the
ground that his advice probably had saved
the government $4,000
The bill was passed after an amendment

eminent bonding bureau had been defeated.
An amendment increasing from $500 to
