executive and Judicial, and the sun
dry civil appropriation bills. 1t has not
been determined a. yet which Of these
will be taken up first. In spite Of the pre-
dic,ion that Congress cannot adjourn until

others. says so. There is much anxiety,
especially among Democratic members Of
/ Congress. 70 get the appropriations through

estcd in the internal-reyenuc bill shll hope
that IL may be gotten ZIP soon. The
