second appropriation bill since

stiffen civilian defenses in the em
battled Philippines and 595.000.000

gency use in the territories
Thp measure calls for .5.500 000,-
000 mamlv funds for housing It
is slated for House passage this
evening, and is expected to he
pushed through the Senate by the
end of the week.
—Even—though —i l —comes, just JL
few days after congressional ap
proval of the huge 510,000,000.000
war appropriation measure, little
opposition was anticipated for the
new spending bill.
ESSENTIAL PROVISIONS
Essential provisions of this,
measure are:
• A direct appropriation of
510,000.000. plus 530.000.000
which has become available j
from the sugar tax, for use ol
the military commanders of the
Philippines to step up civilian
defense in the islands.
• Authority for the agricul- i
ture department to acquire
stocks of food, feed and seeds
for possible emergency use I
among civilians in outlying ter
ritories. and an allocation of
535,000.000 for the purpose.
• For defense housing in over- I
crowded areas. 5300.000.000. plus ;
5150,000.000 for community j
facilities, such as utilities, pipe j
lines, etc., in these localities.
• Allotment of SBOO.OOO for
the office of government reports, j
in addition to the 51.000.000 j
which the agency headed by
Lowell Mellctt previously ob
tained from this Congress.
Following action on the ap-'
propriation bill, the House is
scheduled to approve drastic tight-,
emng of the alien registration law)
by transferring control of alien
agents from the state to the!
justice department, broadening def
initions of those who must regis
ter. compelling them to file all
propaganda they might use, and
raising penalties for violators to
five years in jail and SIO,OOO fines.j
In other legislative moves:
• The House interstate com
merce committee prepared to
file a report supporting its bill
to permit government seizure of
radio, wire service, and other
equipment for rapid communi
cations if such seizure becomes
necessary for military opera- '
tions.
• Citing the war as necessi
tating stability in sugar storks,
the Senate prepared to pass a
bill extending for three years
the government control over
production quotas of the vital
commodity.
