WASHINGTON. Jan. II. (UPD
The administration put on the
heat yesterday and pulled both
houses of congress back into line,
but not without further signs
that the White House hope OF a
docile session may yet be eX-
ploded.
Administration forces moved
quietly behind the scenes with
little public show of strength,
but the Job was effective. The
house almost rebelled, with 81
Democrats boiling on a move to
apply 8 rigid gag to prevent cx-
penditures for veterans and re-
storation of the federal employees

CATION of five also opposed the
rule. But by the close vote Of
1877 to 1872 the administration
won out.
1t had been made clear on the
floor that the rule was sponsored
by the president, who earlier in
the day had conferred with the
house organization committee on
plans to keep the majority IN
line.
On the senate side some Of
the Democrats who bolted We'd

bill by putting an extra tariff on
imports from defaulting debtor
came back to the fold. The bill
was reconsidered, the amend
ment-proposed by the White
House-was killed, and the bill
went over to the house. which
approved it in final form. IT.
now goes to the White House.
, But after responding to adj
ministration pressure on TINS
measure, the senate promptly
went rampaging again and pass
ed bill by Senator Hiram John
son, Repn., California, prohibit
ing any financial transactions
with defaulting debtor nations.
IL provides a $4,000 fine or
five years imprisonment for ylo-
lators.
Only a handful Of members
was in the chamber when the
vote was taken and majority
leader Robinson made it clear
that he would move for recon
sideration. The bill is expected
to be defeated when he forces 1t
to a vote again.
The senate confirmed inc
nomination of William Bullitt as
ambassador to the Soviet gov
eminent, after a debate in which
Republicans protested against
recognition of the Moscow re-
gime. But Senator Borah, Rep
