II CONGRESS ABOUT TO END
 DELIBERATIONS
l.h Hour Agr eeme nt $ Point to Probable Ad-
 journment Today

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Con- gress, jaded by nearly eight months struggle, drew on its last ounce of energy today to whirl feverishly through vast mass of last min ute legislation in order to adjourn tonight. Broken deadlocks and elev- enth hour agreements prompted leaders to declare this the last day of the 74th Congress.
 Measures sent along to the White House include the employer -em- ployee tax measure for a new rail pension bill while the utility regu- lation, alcohol control and gold suit bills were up for swift final rati- ficatlon today.
 Flood Control Blocked
 The Senate saw a filibustering onslaught last night that blocked the half million dollar flood control bill already passed by the House, The Senate sidetracked it for this session after it had been called 8 graft bill by Senator Tydings Maryland Democrat, and a gigantic pork barrel by vandenberg of Michigan.
 ' The new tax bill vote was slated in both houses for today and the Senate is working on the neutrality measure and the hundred million dollar deficiency appropriation car rying funds for the new social se- curity program.
 Fight on Cotton Plan
 Struggle between the Farm Ad- ministration and Southern Senators over the new cotton loan subsidy plan was headed for a crucial test in the Senate. Senator Byrnes leading the fight. sought to sub stitute direct 12 per cent loan by the Commodity Credit Corpora ton for the loan subsidy arrange ment and warned of a filibuster unless he got vote on the merits of this proposition.
 The highly disputed Guffey coal stabilization bill finally was ap- proved last night and went to the White House where it is reported certain of Presidential signature After months of pressure by both the Administration and organized labor, the bill sets up a little MIRA in the coal industry Producers opposing the measure have prom ised Supreme Court test. This is the latest of the New Deal meas ures affecting industry and has been one of the major obstacles in blocking adjournment.
 AAA Strengthened
 President Roosevelt has signed the bill strengthening AAA.
 Action has also been completed by Congress on the bill to forbid after January l, suits against the Gov ernment to collect alleged losses caused by dollar devaluation in ab- rogation of the gold payment claus es in Government obligations.
