D. c. RENTAL BILL
DELAYED. AGAIN

Prospects for a ready passage OF
the food-production bill, which in
cludes the prohibition amendment
and the Pomerene amendment for a
District rent administrator in Wash
ington. were given a further set
back in the Senate today.
Following the action Of the House
yesterday. the Senate passed a reso-
luton to continue the food production
appropriation for the Department Of
Agriculture through the month of Not
vember. )
Had this resolution not been passed
It would have been absolutely neces-
sary to pass the food production bill
itself in order TO allow the Depart
ment OF Agriculture TO go ahead with
its food stimulation work. Now that
the resolution has gone through -
bill can finger along through NUVen''
Der without embarrassing the Depart
ment OF Agriculture.
The dry amendment is hung up and
the dry forces in Congress are getting
more and more disturbed over the de-
lay.
Especially in view OF the talk OF
early peace, they fear the vets will
try to prevent any wartime prohibit
tion legislation If there is an arms
ice and peace conference.
Sc far as rental legislation is con-
cerned, no progress has been made
toward getting anything done, and 1t
does not look today as IL there will
be any change in the situation until
some time after the election, IL there
= al that time.
