House conferees on the 1887

an unusual step today and 'in-

effort to break the prolonged
deadlock over the items in
dispute.
Invitations to conferences on
bills customarily originate on the
Senate side.
The invitation from the House group,
signed by all five confereeS, was ad.
dressed to Senator Thomas, Demo-
crat, of Oklahoma, and chairman of
the Senate Conference Committee. It
read:
"Inasmuch as the District appro-
priation bill is still in conference, and

Representative Blanton, Democrat,
Of Texas, acting chairman of the
House Conference Committee, made
the letter public without comment.
Meanwhile, the Senate conferees
were preparing today to ask for Senate
action on continuing resolution, re-
affirming approval of President Roose-
velt's recommendation for a $500, 900
lump sum as the Federal share of
the city's expenses.
A rapid series of developments late
yesterday resulted in calling of the
conferees' meeting set for this morn

by telephone with Blanton.
With the Senate group standing
firmly by the Administrations budget
