HOUSE APPROVES RELIEF MEASURE BY 246-182 VOTE’ Garner Plan is Carried to Vic-; tory as Some Republicans Join Democrats Washington, June 8.—()—Speaker ; Garner's giant relief plan swung through the house to victory Tues- day, but Wednesday in the senate it faced a stone wall. . Leaders of both parties in that chamber sought instead immediate passage of a non-controversial bill permitting the reconstruction finance corporation to lend up to $300,000,000 to states for relief purposes. The Garner plan was put through by.an almost solid Democratic house vote with the aid of some insurgent Republicans. The roll call showed 216 for it, 182 against. Bound by agreement in party caucus to support the bill, all Democrats but.10 sup- ported the speaker. Heeding President Hoover's de- nunciation of the as a “gigantic pork barrel,” all but 21 of the Re- publicans voted against it. . Though the outcome was inevitable, they tried but lost before this an attempt to recommit the bill and have the president’s relief program substituted for that of the speaker. The latter, involving a total out! of $2,300,- 000000, calls for $100,000,000 to be given outright by the federal govern- ment in relief of destitution; -$1,000,- 000,000,000 expansion of the recon- struction corporation, and $1,200,000,- 000 of public works the money to be secured by a bond issue based on a gasoline tax. Senate Committee Acts The Democratic unemployment re-j Nef bill, providing for a $500,000,000 Public works bond issue was approved Wednesday by the senate banking committee. The bill also provides for increasing the: borrowing power of the recon- struction corporation by $1,500.000,009 for loans on self-liquidating construc- tion projects. The committee voted 9 to 6, how- ever, to eliminate provision for loans to competing private industries.

That is a valuable plant, worth something less than three- quarters of a million dollars, and if lit cannot be utilized to advantage by the government, it is too valuable for jus to move away and let it go to pieces, for the saving of a few thou- sand dollars.” General MacArthur gave assurance |that the lump sum appropriation for unsere of forts would be made avail- able. “If Fort Lincoln is not abandoned, he said, “the money we had destined jfor Jefferson Barracks would be ispent at Fort Lincoln.” | “There are no strings tied to it,” lasked Nye, “to prevent your doing that?” “None replied ‘general. whatsoever,” the Expenditures totaling $292,842.81 for the operation of Fort Lincoln wer: made by the federal government for the fiscal year ending June 1, 193), Lieut.

Regular officers at the post received $39,286 while enlisted men received $109,916.87 in salaries, Lfeut. Col. Har- ris said. In addition $63,274.94 was spent in connection with the Citizens Military Training Camp and $80,365 was necessary for maintenance of thr. post property.

Only one more attempt to substi- jtute President Hoover's furtough plan for the flat 10 per cent cut in govern- ment salaries faced the senate before it could pass the biJl and send it back to the house for conference. This was proposed by Senator La Follette (Rep.. Wis.), who hoped to muster a few more votes than were cast for it Tuesday and thus approve it. It was rejected by the small margin of 41 to 36. The plan of scnate leaders was to put through Wednesday the $300,000,- 000 relief loan bill which leaders vf both parties agreed to rush through separate from the general relief pro- ram. on which much controversy is in .sight. This was expected to be taken up immediately the economy bill was passed. Rejection of the entire section af- fecting veterans came at the conclu- sion of Tuesday's session. It was done by the overwhelming vote of 63 to 14 after members of the committe sponsoring the bill told th> senate the plan was not practicable at this time The house, too, had rejected this economy. 18-Year-Old Beulah Youth Succumbs Here n A.
