Mr. President. -I ask unanimous consent for the present consideration of Order of Business 1510. the bill to limit the application of the internalrevenue tax upon passage tickets. This is a bill passed by the House which waives the head tax of $5 on steamship transportation tickets for the members of the American Legion in attendance at the Legion convention in Paris the coming summer. I may say that the French Government has waived all passport and visa regulations. and it is my opinion that we should concur in the action of the House in waiving the head tax of 85.
