            In the Seventy-second Congress the total laws numbered 843,
    which were divided as follows: House bills 474, House joint resolutions
    41, Senate bills 294, and Senate joint resolutions 34. Of the 474 House
    bills which became laws, there was included 1 omnibus pension bill
    containing 283 House bills and 155 Senate bills (added to the House bill
    as amendments), making a total of 1,280 bills and resolutions which
    became laws. The 1,280 laws are subdivided as follows: 756 House bills,
    41 House joint resolutions, 449 Senate bills, and 34 Senate joint
    resolutions. Of the 294 Senate bills and 34 Senate joint resolutions
    which became laws, 112 bills and 8 joint resolutions were enacted in
    lieu of House bills, House joint resolutions, and a House concurrent
    resolution, which had been reported from committees and which were laid
    on the table to facilitate the enactment of the legislation. Exclusive
    of bills vetoed and the proposed amendments to the Constitution, the
    House passed 283 House bills (including 2 omnibus pension bills
    containing 1,488 bills, a total of 1,79 bills), and 5 House joint
    resolutions and 1 Senate bill which did not become laws. There were
