A conference report agreed upon by conferees of the aenate and house during the past week adjusting dttlerences In the bill as passed by the two branches of congress, will come up for action In the house this week. Republican Leader Mondell of the house described the bill today as marking a "very forward step in carrying out the program of constructive leg.aletlon entered upon at the beginning of the 84th congress."
