CONGRESS- ADjOURNS after DOING
MUCH VERY IMPORTANT WORK

sion. He says that the present Con-
gress has done more along the lines OF
constructive statesmanship than has
been accomplished at any session With
which he II familiar. He says that
men Of genuine patriotism have n
right to feel "a profound satisfaction
in the course of this Congress-"
The text Of the Presidents state
ment follows:
I'm the session that has Just closed
the Congress has done more sub0tan-
tial work for good than any Congress
at any session since became familiar
with public Affairs. The legislation
has been along the line Of real con-
structive statesmanship of the mose
practical and efncient type. and bill A.
ter bill has been enacted which has
been Of an importance 30 great that 1t
is fair to say that the enactment Of
any one Of them would have made the
session memorable; such, for instance.
as the railroad rate bill, the meat in
spection measure, the pure food bill.
the bill for free alcohol in the arts,
the consular reform bill. the Panama
canal legislation. the joint statehood
bill and the naturalization bill.
UnseIfish and Wise.
II certainly have no disposition to
blink at what there is OF evil in our 30
cial, Industrial or political life OF to-day,
but it seems to me that the men of gen.
uine patriotism. who genuinely wish
well to their country. have the right
to feel profound satisfaction in the
entire course OF this Congress. I
would not be afraid to compare its rec
ord with that of any previous Congress
in our history, not alone for the wis
dom, but for the disinterested high
mindedness which has controlled its
action.
1T Is noteworthy that not single
measure which the closest scrutiny
would warrant us In calling OF doubt
full propriety has been enacted, and on
the other hand no influence OF any
kind has availed to prevent the enact
ment of the laws most vitality neces-
