House Exiends Car Payment Time From 15 10 21 Months WASHINGTON, July 20 — (# — The House voted today to extend the time for making payments on the purchase of new and used auto- mobiles from 15 to 21 months. The vote, over administration pro- tests, was 140 to 43. Earlier the House shouted down a proposal which would have abolished all credit controls — or, in effect, wiped out the regulation requiring one-third down payment on auto-} mobiles. Both proposals were sponsored by Rep. P: n (D-Tex) who said tL regulation puts a “penalty on the poor man.” Nearing the end of its marathon |Air Force planes bombed and strafed the train, succeeded in de- railing it, but did not damage the bridging equipment.
