Senate Preparing to
Finance Corporation
Confer on Rails
Pass
Bill.
WASHINGTON, March 2
Whilo conferees today got down to
work on the railroad control bill, tho
Senate pieparcd Io piss the war finance
corporation measuie
Both these ltnl war bills nio ex
pected to be made law bs President
VIIon's signature bcfoie March 15
Though tho IIouo Was and Means
Committee hast not jet concluded hear
ings on tho flinncc corporation bill,
It Is expected that Its passage will take
but a short time w hen It Is reported out.
An Insurgent moement basing pre
sented the passage of the bill by the
Senate estcrday, Henator Simmons In
charge of It planned to push It today.
This Insurgent movement resulted In a
lctory for tbot-c demanding that Wall
street be forced to beep hands off tho
management of the 'Corporation.
Through a long parliamentary tangle the
Senate rambled finally to this conclu
sion regarding the tllrcctorH of the cot-
poratlon:
That no director of the coipnratlon '
shall either directly or Indlrcttls par
ticipate In any transaction of the cor
poration affecting the Interest of an
concern with which bo Is cither directs
or Indirectly lonnected
This provision, sponsored by Renaloi
plttman, Nevada, will force directors
of the corporation tn sever all connection
with the big Wall sticct business Inter
ests, Plttman said. He pointed out that
unless they do thev aro bound to hio
a shale in transactions cither directly
or Indirectly Involving their concerns
. While the Senate cleaned up this
measure the .ludlelarv Committee tried
again to get a sole on the Overman bill,
empowering tlio President to tcorginlze
tho war agencies to obtain greater fll
rlency. It seined unlikely the deadlock
In the commltteo would be broken
