Session OF Congress Roosevelt

WASHINGTON. Jan. G'rhe President al

mittee will attend the conference,
The principal subject to be discussed
will be tariff revision and the proper time
to take it up The President has not aban-
doned HIS desire to call special session
Of Congress to take up tariff revision, but
there has been such variety Of opinions
on the question among leaders In Congress
that he is uncertain whether the session
should be ca lied for early spring or late
fan, or at all.
Speaker Cannon is opposed to any extra
session and IL as anxious as the President
TO have the question settled The four
Senate leaders are understood to object
TO an extra session at any time, but they
have never expressed themselves as UNI
alterably opposed to early consideration
Of tariff revision.
The President, il Is said. Is somewhat I'M
easy at the prospect Of unmercifnl cutting
Of appropriat ions for the executive de-
partments. He sounded the note of econ
ou1y In the beginning Of his Mesa &c, and
Congress has taken II TO heart with such
vengeance that II threatens TO cause the
looping of Of many desirable and even
necessary appropriations Speaker Can
non has led the way in tho general on
slaught. Tho Senate has given signs of
being nearly as economical as the House.
IT is understood that the President will
take occasion to assure his advisers in
Congress that the Treasury is not yet bank
rupt, and that his recommendation FOR
the exercise OF economy should not be taken
10 mean parsimony and the Gripping of
Government machinery and particularly
injury to the programme for a big navy.
The general programme for this session
will be discussed at tomorrow conference,

ptiation bills. The President. it Is said,
has No intention TO discuss with the leaders
