Larger Twine Contract Special to The Springfield Union WASHINGTON, Feb. 15-An creased post office twine contract is provided for in the Treasury Office appropriation bill introduced in the House today.

OLD PINEKNOT LED THE BOY TO THE EDGE OF THE BLUFF: 1937, FIELD 2252 HUGE TREASURY MEASURE STARTS THROUGH HOUSE Action on $1,500,955,000 Bill Involves Post-Office Transatlantic Air Mail Funds WASHINGTON, Feb. 15 (AP) -The biggest -Post Office Department appropriation in history started on its way through Congress today. It carries $1.500,955,000 to finance the two departments for the next fiscal year. House leaders hoped to complete ACtion and send the measure to the Senate late this week. Besides routine expenses, the bill would provide $750.000 for a transatlantic air-mail service to begin about Nov.

1. Negotiations have been under way with foreign governments for an agreement under which an American and a British company each would make two trips weekly, flying a southerly route in the winter and a shorter northern route when weather conditions permit. In reporting the bill. the House Appropriations Committee said the proservice "seems to promise more return for the expenditure than any foreign air-mail service of this country." although it would have to be subsidized for some time. It would bring this country within 21 to 30 hours' flying time of London.

Carries "Rider" Like the two preceding appropriation measures this session, the bill carries a "rider" prohibiting the use of any of the funds to pay departmental employes lent to congressional investigating committees, Although a compromise was reached with Senate on A similar clause in the relief deficiency bill last week. controversy over the rider delayed passage of the measure so long almost was necessary to suspend payments. Although the appropriations committee lopped $15,041,067 from the budget estimates for both departments, the total exceeds last year's figure by $234,900,149. An increase of 000 in the appropriation for the Social Security Act's old-age pension reserve accounts for the increase. Under the law, this item increases annually, but during hearings on the bill.

Secretary Morgenthau said, the bulk of. the money would be invested and used to absorb the public debt. "If the law stands as it 1s," he testified, "in the next 17 years or so various laws, such as social security, sinking fund and so forth. will absorb about $30.000,000,000 worth of public debt. The bill would provide A total of $718,485,790 for the Treasury and $782,469,361 for.

the Post Office Department.

Manufacturing Company in its effort to recover $270.000 paid the Govern-; ment. The company lost in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appcals. The court 'agreed to review controversy after meting briefly to hand down one minor decision.

Mysterious "Skywriter" Appears Over Vienna VIENNA, 13 -Hundreds thousands of Viennese craned their necks today at the antics of a "skywriter" tracing strange figures in smoke against a cloudless sky.

James M. Curley's administrationwas urged by Rep. Thomas Linnehan (D- Boston) as a form of relief to home owners. This bill was rejected, 107 to 94. Rep.

John W. Lasell (R-Northbridge) declared the bill would injure bank depositors by forcing a reduction in bank interest rates.

Philip Sherman (R-Somerville) said last year one man filed 40 bills, 39 of which were rejected.

Citizens have free right to petition the Legislature in Massachu. setts. :..4 Without debate the House passed and sent to the Senate a bill barring the: appointment to county or state positions of persons who are not citizens of the United States. The only exception allowable is where a position "requires a specialist in a recognized branch of science" and such a specialist is not available. among United States citizen.

The hill further provides that beginning next year no alien may remain in the employ of the State or of a county unless he has received his second naturalization papers. A bill calling for a state appropriation of $17,000 for the improvement of Cutiyhunk Harbor on Cuttyhunk Island off New Bedford was filed by representative Joseph A. Sylvia (R-Oak Bluffs). The appropriation would, be used only if the Federal Government contributed $15,000 and the town of Gosnold $2500. Gov.

Charles F. Hurley signed a bill requiring that the state fish pier. to be built at Gloucester, be operated without profit and be open to all fishermen. The House passed and sent to the Senate a bill distributing $1,000,000 in corporation taxes to cities and towns. The measure modifies a law passed last year exempting machinery used in manufacturing from A local taxation.
