AID TO FINANCE AND RAILROADS

Sum of 500 Million for Reconstruction Corporation Soon.

Washington, Dec. 21.—Senate leaders for both parties assured President Hoover today at a White House conference of prompt action on the $500,000,000 reconstruction corporation after the Christmas

holidays.

The President urged the earliest consideration for this measure by which he hopes to bolster up the national financial structure and particularly to aid the railroads. The Senate group also told the President they hoped for action on the moratorium before the Christmas recess begins tomorrow night. Those at the White House parley included Senator Watson, of Indiana, the Republican leader, and Senator Harrison, of Mississippi, ranking Democrat on the

Finance Committee.

‘'We assured the President,” — said Senator Watson, “that at the ♦earliest possible moment after the Christmas recess we would take up speed work on the $500,000,000 reconstruction corporation. Hearings are now being held on this and we will have it in the Senate early in the new year.”
