CONGRESS PUSHES
LABOR MEASURE
Housing Bill Also on List to
Be Saved From Final
Jam.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the ASsocia ted Press.
An administra ton effort to salvage
the Wagner Labor Board bill and the
Roosevelt housing measure from the
congressional adjournment jam is in
the making
Congressional chiefs hurried y
dumped almost everything else over
board in an effort to close up shop
by the end of next week. They
scrapped most of the remaining legis-
lative program with the exception OF
the silver, tariff and appropriation
bills.
Word that President Roosevelt
wanted both the labor and HOUSING
bills pushed through brought frowno
in some quarters. 1t was said enact
ment of both would make an adicErn-
ment next week virtually impossible
Considers Silver Bill.
The House met an hour earlier than
usual today to consider the bill tc
make silver 25 per cent of the Ma
tons monetary stock. Leaders pre-
dlcted quick passage
The Senate approached a vote on
the reciprocal tariff bill under a linl-
ltatlon OF debate agreement.
President Roosevelt, in addition to
informing congressional leaders that
the legislation for the housing pro-
gram must be passed before adjourn
ment, designated Harry L. Hopkins,
Federal relief director, to take charge
of the housing project.
Hopkins succeeds Frank c. Walker.
executive director of the National
Emergency Council, in charge of the
program. With its passage by Con-
gress Hopkins would be designated
Federal housing administrator.
The President has determined to
make the housing program the focal
point of recovery from now on. He
has taken this action on the advice of
congressional leaders-and with what
officials regard as the wholesale sup
port of labor and buSiness-as the
means by which private enterprise
may be enabled to re-employ a large
portion of the millions now out of
work in the heavy goods industries.

said publicly and privately they re-
gard the program as the most ex-

The Presidents desire to have the
housing legislation passed was con-
veyed by administration officials to
Senators Bulkley of Ohio and Fletcher
OF Florida, and Representative Steagall
OF Alabama, who are in charge of
the bill IN the Senate and House.

Claiming that he had definite proof
Pond traced trouble the flyers en-
countered to the alleged sabotage be-
fore the take-off. He said he would
attempt to fasten the guilt on some
one when he returns to New York.
I'VE have evidence of three types of
tampering." Pond said. There were
strips of cardboard in the oil tank
and tin 'fillercap' in the oil line.
The main feed line from the rear of
the gas tank was definitely shut off
and the water canteens, one of which

Fortunately foreign articles in the
oil tank line did not prevent oil from
getting through. though they may
have restricted the flow somewhat
Tampering with a gas tank is most

happened accidentally"

Drastic Quotos against the United
States to divert trade to other .coun-
tries have already been applied by
the import monopoly bureau, though
it does not take full charge of Ger
many's foreign trade until tomorrow
Protests Expected.
The American Government is ex-
pected to protest vigorously. The
quotas are considered a violation OF
the treaty. giving the United States
equal treatment with other nations.
German authorities, to whom pro-
tests already have been made, deny
violating the treaty. though confronted
with proofs that German importers
have net only been refused permission
to buy in the United States. but also
have been ordered to place their
orders with other countries
Finally. Germany's purchase of lard
orders were almost entirely from the
United States. Not only is the new
tariff 10 times higher than the former
one. but the American quota is 20 per
cent of the average purchase in the
last three years.
Germany has only enough copper

and wool. but no import licenses are

The creditors representatives face
