The House passed late to- day the 1943 agriculture ap- propriations bill, carrying a total of $820,065.859 in author- ized expenditures and loans. A total of $56,810,722 was cut from the bill in nine days of debate, A last-ditch attempt to restore a $25,000,000 reduc- tion in the allotment for the Farm Security Administration met defeat on a standing vote.

The House tentatively slashed $25,000,000 from the agriculture | appropriations bill today, cutting in half the allotment for admin- | istrative expenses and grants in the farm rehabilitation program. The action on the reduction— | largest single cut thus far in the farm supply bill—came on a teller vote of 142 to 119 as President Roosevelt was reported reliably as considering a veto of the entire measure. Representative Hope, Republican, of Kansas, said the $25.000,000 cut would put the rehabilitation pro- gram “out of business.” but Rep- resentative Woodrum, Democrat, of Virginia, told the House that ad- ministrators of the program “have to advertise to get these people to come in and take the money” of- fered as rehabilitation grants. | Mr. Roosevelt was asked earlier at his press conference if progress was being made in controlling in- | flation.

Takes Control Of Nation's Entire iWood Pulp Supply W. P. B. Will Allocate Quotas to Paper Mills And Other Users By the Associated Press. The Government today took control of the Nation's entire supply of wood pulp, effective May 1, under a War Production Board order assuming power to allocate both domestically pro- duced and imported pulp to pa- per mills and other users. The order is intended “to conserve supplies and distribute equitably the available pulp between competing war and civilian requirements,” W. P. B. said.

Pulp imported from Canada, the principal foreign source of supply after noon of May 1 will be “frozen’ until released by J. S. Knowlson, W. P. B's director of industry oerations. The order affects all types of pulp and all companies, and requires pulp consumers to file monthly sched- ules of their orders for the follow- ing month. These reports will begin next month. !
