STATEHOOD LISTED
STEERING COMMITTEE OF THE
SENATE OUTLINED PROGRAM
MAY HAVE BILL PASSED BY CHRISTMAS

Order Of Business OF Senate Before
Holding Recess Is Framed-Four
Matters to be Taken Up--Statehood
Is One of Them
WASHINGTON: The steering com
mittee of the senate framed the order
OF business for the senate until the
holiday recess. Four matters will be
given attention in this period. Trey
are the Philippine bill, on which the
senate agreed to vote December 16;
statehood legislation, the nomination
OF William ID. Crum 20 be the collect
or Of the port of Charleston, S. C., and
tho question of filing vacancies en-
senate committees
No effort was made to outline a
program for the session or to preju-
dice action on urgent business which
failed In the last session Of congress
or was advocated by the president
Tn his message to congress. At inform
al meetings Of senate leaders several
or these measures have been discuss
ed and the tacit understanding reach
cd that some of them should be kept
In the background until late in the
session. Notably is this true of the
proposed legislation granting the in
terstate commerce commission super
vision over railroad rates. 1t Is ex-
pected several appropriation bills will
be sent over from the house before
long as is usual In short sessions OF
congress, nothing of a disputed char
actcr will be allowed to stand in their
way.
1t is believed by senate leaders that
there will be no substantial opposi-
ton to the statehood bill in its pres.
ent form, admitting Oklahoma and In
dian Territory as one state and Ari-
gona as one state.
