object to all unanimous agreement on

publicans agree to bring in a tariff
bill.
Representative Jones, OF Virginia,
also again threatens to present his
resolution providing for the appoint
ment of steering committee TO desig-
nate democratic members Of the COM
mittees, instead of leaving the work
to the minority leader. Both resolu-
tons will be sharply antagonzed. the
latter by John Sharp Williams friends
and the former by the conservatives.
who feel that the adoption Of the Hay
resolution would be the inauguration
of a filibuster which would be Of
widespread consequence.
