Byrne' dlATlfMllrfl In in tanata followed oonferencea of Democratic Leader Bark lev with other adminld- tratlon leaders. Senators Wagner and Van Nuyn (D.-lnd.) offered yesterday to delay consideration of tha tntl-Iynchlng bill until after the farm bill hsd been disposed of, If Bark ley would agree not to puah any other major legisla tion In front of the farm measure. This would have entailed the sen ate's marking time until the farm bill waa reported, possibly nnct week. The action today left the reorga nization bill, only one of the presi dent's measures which Is ready for consideration now, remaining on the calendar to be considered later In the session. One move waa In the direction of enacting the president's proRram. House members began signing a peti tion to wrest the administration') wages and hours bill from the rules committee which blocked Ha consid eratlon In the house last session. 4A Sign Pelitlm,. Chairman Norton (D.-N.J.) of the house labor committee, filed the peti tion and a long queue of representa tives formed quickly at the speak er's rostrum to follow her In signing It. When tho house adjourned by a vot of 328 to 130, there were 45 signatures on the petition. Rules require 318 before the rules commit tee can be discharged from further consideration of whether the wage hour bill will have rlght-of-wny. As this action proceeded, Chair man O'Connor of the rules committee expressed the opinion that the presi dent's message yesterday, outlining his objectives for congress, "was r.ot very enthusiastic" for the wafle-hour bill. Generally, the president's program waa bogged down. Failure of the agriculture commit- tees to have farm bills ready for either chamber may cost the admin istration a full week out of the scheduled five-week session. 4 .
