Plan to Prevent Members
From Accepting Contracts
Opposed by‘ Committee
Member
CHICAGO, iJuJy 3.—Julius Rosen-
,waldgchairman of the committee in
Supplies of the Council of National
Defense, has issued a statement in
which he charges that legislation
pending in Congress putting members
of the council upon the same footing
as congressmen in the matter of ac-
cepting contracts for the government
would eventually put the council out
of business.
He said: “Congressmen under” the
constitution, cannot be interested in
any contracts with the government,
land Congress now, it appears. has
tacked a rider to the food bill, the
effect of which if passed and wit veto-
ed by the President would be to leg-
islate the committees of the defense
council out of business by putting
the members in the same class with
congressmen and senators.
