Opposition Organizing.
Especial to the RECORD UNoN.l
WASHINGTON, January 4th-The mem
bers of the House Committee on Commerce
are organizing strong opposition to the pro-
posed new rule requiring the reference of the
annual river and harbor bill, after its prepa-
ration by the Commerce Committee, to the
Committee on Appropriations. They say
that if they cannot be depended on to prepare
a suitable bill and report their work directly
to the House, they will not take any action
whatever in the premises, but will let the
Committee on Appropriations take all charge
of the matter. The feeling against the pro-
posed rule is very general, especially among
the Southern members, who believe that their
section will be more literally dealt with if
the Committee on Commerce is permitted to
continue in control of the river and harbor
bill.
