i preparation of the bill Tuesday. :
j_After the meetingit was stated thit
j a figure between I35.00<?.000 and
$40,000,000 was being used by the
committee on a basis for the appro-;
| prlatlon.
Chairman l^asker will not b?
I given any money for purposes fori
which he was unable to convince
the committer there was not an urgent
necessity.
During the three days in which
Mr. I^a?ker was prilled bv the com?
| mittee he admitted that a large
part of the deficiency appropriation j
he was requesting was not absolutely
needed, but he told the commit-j
tee that If he were given the sum
he asked fcr. lie could administer
the affairs of the board better than
If he were limited in his expendi- j
tures.
Among the estimates was approximately
J50.rt00.0no for the settlement
< unadjudicated claims
against the Shipping Hoard. This
request was reected hv the Appropriations
