House Prepares to

Vacations

As House members prepared
today to start indefinite, informal
vacations. President Roosevelt
was reported to have reached the
conclusion that he could take
steps to curb imitation without
additional legislation.
Members who refused to be
quoted by name said they had
received word that there was little
likelihood Mr.. Roosevelt would send
message to Congress asking for
additional authority to control rising
costs Of living.
Therefore, they said, they could
return to their homes or take q
vacation for a few weeks. since the
calendars were cleared of all busi-

posals were in sight.
Two Acts Confer Power.
It was assumed that the Presi-

survey, that he had adequate au-
thority under his powers as Com
mander in Chief in time of war and
under authority of the Price Control
and War Powers Acts to deal with
any such situation as it might de-
velop.
Congressional leaders earlier In
the week had discussed the question
of legislation with the President and
strongly urged that no message
requesting congressional action be
sent to Capitol Hill. on the theory
that it would encounter serious de-
lays.
There was a tacit understanding

Grain Rubber Agency
House Passes Form Bloc
Measure by l04-l8

B, the Associated Press.

B, the Associated Press.
A presidential veto was be-
lieved ready today for legislation
under which the Government
would In some measure abandon
petroleum as base for synthetic
rubber and use more farm
products.
The House yesterday passed a
Senate-approved bill to create an
independent agency with the au-
thority and the money to contract
with manufacturers for an increased
supply of grain rubber for both
war and essential uses.
This proposed revision of the
rubber production program has beer
opposed by the administration
Under current policy, petroleum il
designated as the base for most o1
the synthetic produced under d.
rection OF the War Production
Board and the Rubber Reserve
Corp.
Despite an 11th-hour plea OF
Undersecretary of War Patterson
that new agency would create
confusion in the program and divert
critical materials from tanks, air.
planes and ships, the House ap-
proved the bill, 104 to 18.
Gets Farm Bloc Vote.
The farm bloc voted solidlv for
the legislation. Chairman Fulmer
OF the Agriculture Committee, said
the people want this bill because
the Governments rubber program
has failed"
This group expected presidential
veto, however, and said efforts
would be made to override it should
one be forthcoming.
On the other side, Representative
Cochran, Democrat, of Missouri said
that use of critical materials for
grain rubber plants might deprive
soldiers of needed ammunition,
while Representative Clark, Demo-
crat, Of North Carolina said the
measure would toss us into a sea
of confusion"
Challenging the position of the
War Department and the WPB,
Representative Cox, Democrat, OF
Georgia declared the independent
agency was being pressed in Con-
gress lin response to a public de-
nnand."
Asserting that the WPB's rubber
program had made no progress be-
cause of pickering and jealousies,"
Representative Halleck, Republican,
Of Indiana said the measure repre-
sented lack of confidence in the
way the rubber program has been
handled"
Meantime, Price Administrator
Henderson disclosed plans for fur
ther drastic curtailments in use OF
rubber. He already has eliminated
100000 trucks delivering soft drinks,
hard drinks and other non-essential
materials from tire eligibility lists.
Applications for truck tires by
eligible operators have outrun the
quotas" Mr.. Henderson said. 1--WE
can't increase these quotas enough.
We are having to choose between
vital operations and semiluxuries.
