TO TAKE UP THE WAR TAX
AFTER FOOD BILL VOTE

Measure Until July 21-AdjoUn-

Another change in the estimate of
final adjournment of this session OF
Congress Is necessitated by the action
OF the Senate yesterday postponing a
vote on the food bill until July 21 The
war tax bill will not be taken up until
the food bill is out of the way. and the
successive stages of debate, amend
ment and conference consideration are
thus delayed.

The proposed substitute for the food
bill. under consideration by the COM
mittee on agriculture today, will dis
pose Of the distilled spirits question,

not make necessary the recasting of the

will be reintroduced in practically its
present form and taken up July 80
1T Is my belief that the bill can be
passed with two weeks of debate. nos

minority of the committee in the bill.

1T seems to me that there is not
likely to be undue delay In confer

some radical differences between the
two houses. My hope is that the bill
can be sent to the President within
a month after 1t is taken up for con-
sideration in the Senate"
