It is generally believed the friends
of the bill will do everything possible
to get it out of committee at once, with
the view of having il assigned to q
place on the calendar, though it is not
though that they have any idea that
definite action will be taken before ex-
piration of the session. 1t is possible
that subcommittee may be appointed
by the full committee TO consider the
evidence and more thoroughly inves-
tigate the matter during the recess,
since the bill will, in all probability
be one of the first measures to be re-
introduced at the next session in tie
event of its failure to pass at this ses-
sion.

tentative understanding with the
United States. The islands have no
great value on account of their natu-
raj resources, and have never been
colonized by the Ecuadorians.
