Two days ago the bill providing

Amendments have been added to
each measure and certain Of

result in a prolonged discussion
and prevent final passage before
Congress adiourns.

has blocked their passage each
time they have been called. Next
on the list are two minor civil
service measures.

appear are a bill to designate a
street as Missouri Avenue; a bill
to regulate appeals from the Pub
