Passage Is Next Order of Business Leaders Expect to Pass Wagner Housing Measure I WASHINGTON , Aug. 17. p, The louse took another stride toward Madjournment today by adopting a resolution to dispense with some of Its rules for the remainder of the session. The next order of business was passage of the third and final deficiency bill. Disposal of that ap propriation measure will leave on the house program only the Wagner housing legislation among major bills leaders expect to pass. The house's tape-cutting resolution would: Permit dispensing with the morn ing prayer and reading oi the Jour nal, allow a motion at any time to suspend the rules and pass a bill by a two-thirds vote, authorize day to day recesses instead of adjourn ments, let the rules committee bring In rules and obtain their approval the same day by a majority vote. The resolution was passed despite a suggestion by Representative Ran kin (D.. Miss.) that It might apply to a special session, If any were called In October or November to consider farm legislation. Chairman O'Connor (0., N. Y.) of the rules committee said, that theo retically the resolution might apply to a special session, "but that Is not likely to happen."
