 No Threatening Delays
 None of the pending major busi- ness was of nature to threaten further delay. All issues that might have prolonged the session until next week were disposed of by the Senate last night in 8 long session highlighted by bitter debate. Time after time during the 12-hour ses- sion the presiding officer had to gavel packed galleries and shouting senators to order.

 The major change made by the Senate was restoration of $119,- 0OO,00 item for the Commodity Credit Corporation which makes loans on major farm crops. Usually well-informed house members be lieved that the house would accept the change. It originally was elim- mated by the House Appropriations Committee, but an amendment to restore 1t in the house was defeated Thursday by the scant margin of six votes.
 WoOdrum Blocks
 Final action on the Deficiency Bill-and possible adjournment last night was blocked by Rep. Cliff ton A. Woodrum, D., Va, chairman of the house conferees. He refused to consider the bill until printed copies were available. The Senate had considered the bill throughout the day with but a single copy.
 Woodrum insisted on seeing the changes the Senate had made ir the bill. As a result, the house ad- journed at 6 p. In., and conferees on the Deficiency Bill were ordered to meet with Senate conferees this morning.
 But the Senate stayed in session until 10:51 p. m. in addition to ap- proving the Deficiency Bill it.:
