ary 5th. Immediately after reassembling,
resolutions passed both Houses calling on
the President for information about Pro-
visional Governments, and the progress Of
reorganization under his plan but nc

work among subcommittee. These have
held daily sessions, Of two hours each, and
all day on Saturday. He did not COM

chief cause of delay.
