President Roosevelt already had set aside $43,000,000 of WPA money for the task, and the Red Cross pushed its nationwide drive to raise $3,000,000. Latest reports said that $804,000 of this sum already had been donated by citizens from Maine to California. The weather bureau, after studying latest data from the field, indicated The public health service, with most of its experts laboring in the field, was on the alert to combat disease. Senators and representatives of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Con- Ohio, Pennsylvania, Ten- nessee and others were summoned to a conference at 1:30 p. m., CST, Mon- day to chart a course of legislative action. The aid of the Reconstruction Fi- nance corporation, federal legislation to back up state enabling acts for flood control, increased appropriations for rivers and harbors improvements and new dam construction were sub- jects on the probable agenda. In announcing the WPA funds for flood repair work, the president as- serted that with the exception of food and clothing supplied by the federal s‘eplus relief corporation and from the WPA women’s projects, direct re- lef needs were being met by the C ONTINUE . .

Fifth of the 11 annual departmental supply bills to pass the senate this session, the appropriation measure now goes to conference with the house for action on senate additions of $66,000,000 net. Of this, $58,000,000 was added for rivers and harbors and the remainder for increasing the en- Usted strength from the 147,000 in the house bill. Another $1,000,000 was not increase the total as this much was cut from seacoast defense funds. The senate increased the total for’ rivers and harbors to $196,000,000 and) left undisturbed the house items of| oan $30,000,000 more for flood con- tre Of the total, about $380,000,000 would go for strictly military pur- poses and $231,000,000 for civil uses.

The result was 53 to 12 for pabsage, the 12 in opposition being Black, Bulow, Byrd, Clark, King, McGill, Murphy, Pope and Wheeler, Demo- crats; Capper, Republican, and La- Follette, Progressive.
