MAY 3. 133.1 LABOR SUPPORTS NRA CONTINUANCE TI MOR YEARS (Continued irom raga One OF Contention of Senator Gore That Debtor Nations Would Pay to Help Vete rans Finds Opposition WASHINGTON. May 3 (AP) Ad ministration leaders recessed the sen ate for the week-end tcntght without Toting on the Vinson bonus bill, when sudden shut of votes made It ftp pear likely that the cash payment measure would carry. The senate was ready to vote when Senator Robinson, democratic leader, moved the recess to give adminlAtra tlon forces a chance to reorganize for the Harrison compromise. The shift came when Senators Long (D., La-), and Thomas (D., Okla.). who had been In favor of the Patman Inflationary measure, indicated they would vote for the Vinson bill. (Continued from Page One) WASHINGTON, May 3. VF bear ing a vote on the Vinson bill for cash payment of the bonus, the senate to day reaffirmed Us stand against any revision of the World war debts. '. An amendment to the pending Vin son bill to permit President Roose velt to make readjustment of the debts and use the proceeds for bonus payments was rejected without a rec ord vote after It had been vigorously opposed by Senator Robinson, the administration leader. . The amendment was offered by fienator Qore (D., Okla.) who con tended that If the debtor nations would pay at all, they would pay for the benefit of the men who fought the war., Robinson srgued that the amend ment dealt with a subject too impor tant to be considered without com mittee study. He said the burden of the debts must be borne either by the debtor nations or the American tsx payers. McAdoo Dissents Gore argued the amendment would xtrlcate the United States and the debtor nations from the "dilemma" over the debts. Senator McAdoo (D.. Cal.), war time secretary of treasury, hotly dissented from Gore's statement. Senator Long (D., La.), took up the fight for the Patman bill again, urg ing bonus advocates' to vote against the Vinson measure so that the real test would come between the Harri son compromise and the house bill' Senator McKellar (D Tenn.). con tended that It was proper procedure to authorize an appropriation first and then actually appropriate the money, as the Vinson bill proposed to do. "I never heard of such a law," Long shouted. "The senator Is Just Ignorant," Mc Kellar retorted.. - - Senator Thomas (D.. Okla.), offer ed an amendment to actually appro priate 2.263.M5.000 In the Vinson bill Instead of merely authorizing the appropriation. Senator Harrison (D.. Miss.), made a point of order against It, but Senator Pittman (D., Nev.), In th chair, overruled the point. Amendment Adopted The Thomas amendment was adopted by the senate In the first vote on the bonus question. The vote was 36-32. It was purely & technical Issue, however, and was not expected to change any votes on the choice between the Vinson and Harrison bill. The senate liberalized. the H unison proposal to cut down the Interest on loans against bonus certificates from four to two per cent. The amendment, proposed by 'Sen ator Connally (D., Tex.), was accept ed by Chairman Harrison of the sen ate finance committee, author of the compromise bill. Harrison estimated It would add $90,000,000 to the cost. The Thomas amendment. If kept in the bill, would actually make the money available for paying off the bonus. Otherwise, the measure would only authorize an appropriation and the actual money would have to be voted separately Inter. WASHINGTON. May 3 The house mining committee today re ported favorably the Scrugbam bill to authorise the use of 175.000.000 of work relief funds for rehabilitation of the metal mining Industry and the relief of unemployed miners. Representative Scrugham. (D., Nev.) prepared the bill. It would provide that stranded mining populations could be put to work by the bureau of mines to develop gold and sllw deposits and other deficient and non competitive minerals. Dr. John w. pinch, director of the bureau of mines, proposed an amend- met adopted by the committee which would provide that in the event mine began producing base metals of which there was a surplus In the United States the operations should cease. This amendment also provided that the government should sell or lease to the highest bidder any prop erty developed when a demand for It arose. Scrugham told the committee that this relief measure would be self liquidating In that mines developed would be made to pay their own way. The bill also would provide for a general mineral survey to employ large numbers of miners and to de termine where and In what, quanti ties metals could be found. companr. while at spproximately the tame price level as last year, are steadier, and show a gratifying in crease over last year of approximately 20 percent. There is a 60 per cent greater demand for homes, he said, with sales netting a substantial down phymen. In contrast to "paper" transactions of 1934. J. H. Fletcher, manager of the Jackson County Building and Loan company Indicated a similar rise in the rental and sale business of that firm, with the demand for attractive rental property greater than the sup ply. Fletcher la a firm believer In the remodeling and modernizing of property. I He stated yesterday that business Is better than It has been at any time since 1929, with rentals soaring, a fine market for rental property, and a good demand for small farms close to the city. He foresees a steady in crease In those commodities for the summer. Another roseate glow on the real estate horizon, Indicating an increase of new families in the city.
