What is to be the solution of the
headship of the Public Works office
may be settled at the meeting of the
council of heads of departments with
the executive this morning. 1t is ur-
| derstood that there will be u full dis
cussion of the matter, and perhaps 4
decision will be reached, which will
meet with the approval of all, and clear
the way for the making of the appoint
ment.
At least one thing has been assured,
Governor Dole having notified Senators
and leading Republicans of his deter
mination. Before the adjournment of
the Senate after the passing of the ap-
man who is to be at the head of the
department will be submitted to the
confirming body The insinuations that
Governor Dole would permit the Sen
ate to adjourn without having the ad-
vice of that body in making the ap-
pointment led him to make the state
ment that he was DESTROYS of an agree
ment so that the Senate could con-
slider the names of the men whom he
will want for that and other offices, if
there are any to which appointment
must be made.
1t is believed that there is no ma
terial difference in the matter of can
didates for the places. There have
been no new names mentioned and the
supporters of those previously placed
before the chief executive are seeming
ly as confident as ever, that they will
be able to secure the support which
will land the place. 1t is said that E.
R. Adams has at least four votes in
the Senate assured. while there is as
well a strong sentiment in favor of
Low. CampbePs friends are hard at
work. and Winston has the consistent
support of several of the Republican
leaders.
Hard work promises to be the order
of today and tomorrow in the HoUs2
and Senate. The lower body will at
tempt to clear up the Loan Act today,
and then will undertake the salary bill
tomorrow, according to some of the
forecasters. The committee on mill
tary and band salaries has not made
q III, ha1 or
work for a little time.
1t was reported Saturday that there
was some chance that the House would
content itself with registering its pro-
tests, and would then go on and pass
the appropriation bills as desired by
the business community, but this is not
given as authoritative by anyone. There
is ready for considera ton by the
out on Loan and Six Months salaries
do not report, then that, the eighteen
months salary bill, may be brought up.
The Senate has not got down to hard
work recently, owing to the fact that
it has none to do. but it seems like
ly that there will be something in
sight very soon now. The conference
committee on the six months current
expense measure will meet this even
ing for the first time. and there viii
be some quick work in disposing of
the matters in difference between the
two houses.
Some of the members of the upper
house are of opinion that there will
be an adjournment within the coming
ten days, but the lower house will.
without doubt, occupy the full sixty
days in getting through its work, and
II may not be out of the way to say
that the prospects are that the last
