 The $2,1OO,OOO,000 measure was modified to meet some of the Pres identS objections and it now goes to the House.
 The bill contained an authoriza- tion for loans to individuals thru the Federal Reserve Banks if ap- proved by the Federal R serve Board.
 The bill also carried a clause re- quiring that publicity by given all loans made hereafter by the Re- construction Finance Corporation.
 With the passing by the Senate of this modified relief plan as a substitute for the one just vetoed by Hoover, party leaders began hoping that an end of the seven months session of Congress is at last in sight. The House has be- gun preparations to act or the measure as passed by the Senate.
 It is possible that there may be a conference on the new measure before it is presented to the Presi- dent altho both parties predicted fast action.

 Delegate Wickersham has been intensely interested in trying to secure an adequate appropriation for the Alaska Road Commission. Failing to have the House Appro- priation Committee rec o m mend the budget estimate of $65O,OOO, he sought through an offered amend ment to have the House increase the recommendation of $354,31O to the budget figure, but was unsuc- cessful in this. Then the Chairman of the House Economy Committee sought to have the entire appro- priation cut from the Army bill, but through the Delegates efforts this amendment was defeated, but by the close vote of 56 to 51. The bill then went to the Senate and the Delegate continued his efforts with the Appropriations Commit tee, with the result that when the bill was reported back to the Sen ate it contained an amendment increasing the appropriation to the Alaska Road Commission from $354, ,310 to $494,310. When the bill passed the Senate on the night of June 9th the increase of $140,000 was adopted. The bill is now before the conferees of both houses and their final agreement will indicate the sum the Commission is to re- ceive for the next fiscal year, be- ginning July 1,1932. The Senate increased the appropriation for the Washington Alaska Military Cable and Telegraph System from the House figure of $151 ,280 to $751; 285, and that also is in conference.
