After hurried conferences between
Democratic and Republican leaders,
fearful that TO reopen debate on the
bill would mean its failure, the Sen
ate without roll call passed the
measure with the bond issue provision
eliminated.
At the last moment Senator Jones
succeeded in attaching an amendment
striking out the clause making it a
crime for shipbuilding and other indus
trial concerns to refuse to surrender
their plants to the government in time
of war or other proclaimed emergency.
The Senates action was greeted with
cheers in the House, where it was con-
fident that any difference over the Jones
amendment could be smoothed out.
In the meantime it was agreed that
both houses should put through joint
resolution originating in the House au-
thorizing the s150,0OO,000 bond issue.
Of this money S115.o00.000 is to be used
in rushing to completion vessels now
under construction and $35,000,000 is
for so additional submarines, provided
for in Senate amendments.
