some Of the bills most vigorous op-

There are two developments which
have blasted The hopes Of the OPP
position.
One 81 these was statement by
Chairman Joseph W. Fordncy in a
letter 20 a constituent IN Detroit

him he regarded the bill passed by
the House as good and that he would

The other development was the
practical assurance that the Senate
Finance Committee, which now has
the bill, would report u in the near
future, with just one change. This
change j. the elimination Of the
proposition with regard

considerable bitter opposition 90
