WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-As the
drought relief controversy passed
off the political stage with President
Hoover's signature of the measure
and Secretary Hyde's formulation of
regulations for administering it,
three other major issues-veterans'
bonus, Muscle Shoals and the lame
duck Observation-Disclosures to
confuse the closing days of the
present session of congress.
Though the leaders had hoped
the $20,00o,O0O compromise" on
drought relief would obviate any
need for special session, that
shadow still hangs over capitol hill.
The house, which hitherto has
supported the administration in
blocking senatorial proposals for
more generous assistance to suffer-
ers, promises to desert the White
House on the 100000 borrowing
bill for the veterans, and the senate
may raise the ante.
The Norris demand for govern
ment operation of Muscle Shoals,
which had seemed dead q a result
Of house opposition, may be revived.
Pressure from back home has been
brought on the lower body's con-
