BY unanimous consent yester-

limits on debate. It voted to
allow only an hour for any mo-
tion or amendment. to receive no
amendment not germane to the
bill, and to hold debate on the
bill itself to one hour.
The unanimous consent agree

Ceilings on Expenditures.
Throughout the day yesterday
the Senate adopted restricting
amendments. It put a $4 million
limit on expenditures by the
General Services Administration
until July /, 1855, and a 81 mil
lion lid on the Post ONCE De-
partment.
This limitation was part Of an
amendment by Senators Gordon,
Republican. Of Oregon an d
Stennis. Democrat. of Missis-
sippi. It also would provide that
there be equal annual rent pay
ments, which would be used to
construct new Federal buildings.
The rent payments themselves
would enable the Government
ultimately to own the structures
on which the payments were
made.
This amendment also would
limit payments on future lease
purchase contracts to sums pro-
vided for in appropriations acts.
Senator Gordon explained that
the reason the July l, 1855, date
was set was that the Appropria-
tions Committees would not have
time to formulate a program i'm
mediately.

In another action the Senate
voted to require the General
