House Votes 100 Million for REA as Spending Bill Passes; Neutrality Change Is Shelved
Wallace Urges Farmers, To Keep Corn Crop Within Quota.
(Continued from Page One)
Rep. John Taber (R. N. Y)) eliminate the PWA appropriation entirely. Debt Provision Attached
Rep. William B. Umstead (D. N.| C) led an almost-successful fight to | eliminate a provision of the bill de- |
signed to aid states and municipali- |
ties barred by statutory debt limitation, a ticipating in the PWA loan and grant program. The provision would permit such cities to make leasepurchase agreements to repay the PWA for 35 per cent of the cost of the project with interest.
i Rep. Umstead attacked the pro- |
vision as an attempt to “induce and seduce” the states and cities into violating constitutional limitations, but the House approved it, 90 to 86. Only two amendments were written into the bill in addition to the one on the REA, Both were minor. One by Rep. Gerald J. Boileau (Prog. Wis.) provided for inclusion among approved WPA projects programs for the production of materials for fertilizing soil, to be distributed to farmers. The other was by Rep. Marvin Jones (D. Tex.) to provide WPA jobs for needy farmers, regardless of whether they are on relief Pettengill Criticizes Bill

presented figures submitted by John D. Biggers, the unemployment census head. The President said the New Deal's original spending program did not fail but observed that certain economic and business factors ran away with the ball.

WASHINGTON, May 13 (U. P.).—| The Senate Foreign Relations Com- | | mittee today shelved a resolution )
| arms to Spain after being warned by | Secretary of State Cordell Hull that | relaxation of the embargo would | subject American neutrality to un- | necessary risk. The vote to postpone the] resolution, introduced by Senator | | Nve (R. N. D.), was 17 to 1. The Foreign Relations Committee acted | quickly after Secretary Hull, on re- | quest of Committee Chairman Pittman (D. Nev.), submitted a memo- | randum advising against approval of | the resolution. Secretary Hull drafted the memo- | randum after conferences with | | President Roosevelt. |

Secretary Hull strongly | | opnosed adoption of the measure. | Even if it apolied to both bellig- | | erents in the Spanish strugele, he | said, “its enactment still would sub- | ject us to unnecessary risks we have | | so far avoided.” He asserted that the “original danger” in the Spanish situation | still exists. | Senator Pittman said the Com- | mittee unanimously had agreed to | permit Senator Nve, who at present | is out of the citv, to appear in| defense of his resolution and, if he | so desires, to request its recon- | sideration. “There was such unanimity, how- | ever,” Senator Pittman said, how. I believe he may feel that any | statement he may desire to make | might be futile.”
