passed by the house, among them be-
ing the Philippines currency and tariff
bills, the eight hour bill legislation
for Alaska and the appropriation bills
More, too the senate has to do wi
such robust questions as the Panama
canal convention, Cuban reciprocity,
reciprocity arrangements with France
the British West Indies, several South
American countries and, not the least
indeed, the Venezuelan situation.
is easy to see that in the approx
mately fifty working days the senate
has before il ere the end Of this con.
gress It has no more time for recrea-

The house dispatched an exceptional
amount Of business in the ante holi-
day period. Usually It does lit 4
more than shape appropriation bills,
but this year the more numerous
branch Of congress has made bold 20

tional questions.
The most striking achievement was
the passage of the bill appropriating

justice to manufacture, out Of the
abundant raw material at its doors,

likely that the house viii do some
thing with it before March e.
Another piece Of legislation which
was quickly dispatched by the house
was the reduction Of the tariff on
goods coming to this country from
the Philippines to 25 per cent. Of he
Dingley schedule. The house finished
two large appropriation bills, the ex
ecu.ive. legislative and judicial and
the pension billa along with an urgent
deficiency bill It will take up the
army bill after recess.
Among other important measures
yet pending and lacking formulation
as they will probably pass are the bills
to create a department Of commerce;
for general staff of the army and
others that are calendared, but whose
authors seem to have little hope of
their reaching enactment.
