The same old story will be repeated. Always
about the time CungtCss meets there is great
expectation that something is going TO be done.
II is common 10 see In the papers a list Of
measures that are p.essing for legislative atten-
ton, and that the country cannot well get along
without But Congress dswdles along in the
same old fashion and the great majority Of the
bills get left in the pigeon holes on the last
day Of the session. That is the way il will be
again now that Congress is in session after the
holiday recess, and perhaps that is the way il
should be The plodding style in which Congress
does business saves the statute books from 4
good deal Of lumber. A State Legislature can
grind out more laws in a month than Congress
can in whole session.
