_ 2 CONGRESS MAY END SESSION IN THREE ~ WEEKS, IS OUTLOOK Debate on Wage and Hours Measure Enters Third Day as Vote Nears Washington, July 23—(?)—Majority Leader Rayburn told the house Thursday that congress should be able to adjourn in three weeks, “Unless there is a tieup on the court bill in the ceed sy thing arising to call a ” f= burn said, “we can finish all of this Program in three weeks.” Senator Austin (Rep.-Vt.), asserted in the senate the Black-Connery wage and hour bill would put a “straightjacket” on labor and mean an economic loss for agriculture. Austin, opening the third day of debate on the measure, argued its enactment would hurt all phases of economic life and warned that “la- ‘bor will rue the day it got itself or was forced into this position.” Agreements to defer two controver- sial side-issues cleared a path for a quick vote on the bill. It faced a further obstacle, how- ever, in the house, whose labor com- mittee wrote drastic changes into the original measure. Senate debate was curtailed by Senator Vandenberg’s decision not to press for a vote on his rider, which would have increased union responsi- bility under the Wagner labor rela- tions act. To Hold He Chairman Black (Dem.-Ala.) as- sured Vandenberg the labor commit- tee would hold hearings on his pro- posal as soon as possible. A promise by Majority Leader Barkley to consider action at this session on anti-lynching legislation, Senators said, removed another possi- bility of delay. Proponents of the labor legislation, however, predicted a disagreement between the house and senate. The house labor committee ap- proved Wednesday an amendment empowering an administrative board to fix minimum wages not higher than 70 cents an hour and a maxi- mum work week of not less than 35 hours. Under the senate bill the board could not fix a minimum wage higher than 40 cents nor a minimum work week of less than 40 hours. Both Measures apply only to industries in interstate commerce. Members of a senate-house tax committee talked of boosting surtaxes on personal holding companies to as high as 70 per cent to restrict their alleged use for tax avoidance pur- poses, The present surtaxes range from 8 to 48 per cent, depending on the in- come of the corporations.
