WASHINGTON. — Seldom has a
senate committee been so loath to
put its name to a piece of legislu
tion as the senate banking and cur­
rency committee which finished
sabotaging the price control bill
recently. About all that was left of
the bill was its name.
When it came to signing it, New
York's Senator Wagner, chairman
of the banking and currency com­
mittee, flatly refused. He pointed
out, in a closed-door session, that
he had opposed the emasculating
amendments and would submit his
own minority report.
Senator Taft, who did more than
almost anyone to tear the bill to
pieces, also hesitated He said he
had his own bill which he wanted
to introduce.
Finally someone proposed that the
senators' names be signed in a c ir­
cle, so the public could not tell
who signed first.
“ It reminds me,” said Ken-
tqeky's Alben llarkley, "of the
young man who shot his mother
and father, then appealed to the
court for leniency on the
grounds that he was an or­
phan.”
NOTE—Finally, Senator Barkley
agreed to report the gutted OPA
bill to the senate, but accompanied
by a stinging criticism of the way
the OPA had been virtually de­
stroyed.
