The action of the House throws the en-
tire bill back into the hands Of the con-
ferees. The Senate has not yet acted
on the measure. There Is little or no
doubt but that the Senate will instruct

on the items in dispute. The upshot OF
the whole situation unquestionably VIII
be another report on disagreement on

of weakness in the support Of section 8.
