GUARD YOUR CLOTHES we should say, it marked the end of That is not & pleasant "new year" thought. Certainly it is not cause for "celebration," particularly when the Administration has alâ€" ready resoived to continue the spendingâ€"taxing policy of the "old year" throughout the "new." The fiscal year ended with an expendiâ€" ture of over $9,250,000,000, and a the beginning of a new one. deficit for the year of over $3,600,â€" 000,000 to be added to an enormous exisiting public debt. Unless appropriation bills for a gress and signed by the President by midnight on June 30th agencies of the government would be withâ€" out funds with which to operate. The Administration was hard pressed to get the necessary approâ€" priations out of Conference, apâ€" proved by the House and Senate and to the President for signature in order to meet the June 30th deadâ€" line. The dying days of the 1939 fiscal year closely resembled the dyâ€" ing days of a session of Congress or of our State Legislature when there is invariably a mad rush to get measures enacted into law beâ€" fore the legislators go home, Friday, June 30th, was a trying day for the Administration in other important legislative matters. For several days the House had been deâ€" bating the Bloom Neutrality Bill, sponsored by the President and Deâ€" partment of State. The major obâ€" jective cof the Administration has been to repeal all embargoes on the shipments of arms, ammunition and implements of war to belligerents. Notwithstanding the impressive apâ€" peal by the Majority Floor Leader Sam Rayburn, of Texas, and an eleâ€" quent address from the Floor by Speaker William B. Bankhead, of Alabama, the House wrote into the bill a mandatory embargo provision against the shipment of arms and ammunition. It left out the quesâ€" tion of shipments of "implements of war." u;uli;nr 'grg pqnd_by Con- On June 28th, 29th and 30th the President signed no less than six major appropriation bills. It was not until late in the afterncon of June 30th that the WPA Appropriâ€" ation Bill was sent to the President for signature. Inability to get an agreement between the House and Senate on the District of Columbia Appropriation Bill left the Capital City without funds to start the new year. ‘ A complete silence fell over the packed galleries and the House Floor when the roll was called on a motion to recommit the bill to comâ€" mittee. _ The Administration had just lost the vote on the embargo question and there were grave doubts that it could have the bill at all. When the Speaker, who votes only on rare occasions, asked that his name be called, there was a genâ€" cral feeling that it was a tie and he sought to cast the deciding vote for the Administration. It was inâ€" deed a tense moment when the Speaker announced that the moâ€" tion to recommit failed by a vote of 194â€"196. by Ralph E. Church The Neutrality Bill passed the House, but the hard pressed Adminâ€" istration leaders lost the fight to obtain the kind of a measure the President and State Department sought. On Friday, June 30th, an equally dramatic scene was to be witnessed in the Senate. A historic fight was being staged to prevent the enactâ€" ment of a bill which would extend the power of the President to deâ€" value the dollar. That power exâ€" pired at midnight, and a group of This Week in Washington Washington, D.C., July 8â€"Friday Democrats united with the Republiâ€" cans in a determined effort to preâ€" vent its extension, ‘ It is interesting to note that the Senator who occupied the iFioor when the Senate clock above the Vice President‘s chair showed 12 o‘clock midnight was Senator Milâ€" lard E.
