MAY CALL A CAUCUS
Aldrich Bill VIII Need Help
in the House.
MANY STILL OPPOSED TO IT
Republican Leaders Believe that Cur
rency BiII VIII Pass senate-Not
Favored by Democrats and West
ern Representstives-Cau May
Adopt the Resolution.

Leaders of the House now feeling as
sured that the Aldrich emergency cur
rency bin will pass the Senate, plans are
being perfected for the reception Of the
measure in the lower branch Of Congress.
That this proposed currency legislation
will stir up lively debate In the House
is certain. and for that reason the Re
publicans will soon determine upon def
mite plan OF action in handling this i'm
portant question.
The indications are that in the final
analysis the currency measure will be
passed upon at a Republican caucus. A
few weeks ago it looked as If the Aldrich
biz would have rocky road TO travel in
the House, if Il ever reached that body.
The railroad bond feature having been
eliminated. the bill has grown more popu-
lar. especially among members from the
West
Few Friends of Fowler Bill.
While the Fowler credit currency bill
was reported to the House by the Com
mittee on Banking and Currency, that
measure has few friends on either side of
the Capitol. Republicans who voted to
report it did so with the understanding
that they were not bound TO support It
on the floor of the House. either in whole
or in part.
The Democrats have a currency bill OF
their own. With the conflicting views of
Republicans. and the absolute certainty
that the Democrats cannot be induced 10
vote for any measure proposed by the ma
jority. the House leaders face a situation
that calls for a caucus. At such eau
Gus il is believed. a resolution can be
adopted that viii insure the passage OF
the Aldrich bill practically as II comes
from the Senate.
President Roosevelt is anxious that cur
rency legislation shall be enacted at this
session. and il Is known that he favors
the Aldrich bill as it has been perfected
by the Senate Committee on Finance, OF
which Senator Aldrich is chairman.

HOUSE IS KEPT BUSY.
Fails to AdjOurn Early Ont of Re-
spect for Senator whyte.

The failure of the House to adjourn
yesterday at an early hour. out of re-
spect TO the late Senator Whyte, indi-
Gates a significant change of policy
Heretofore at this session there has
been no nervous strain In speeding legis-
iaton. Any one who wanted 10 make a
speech got time 20 do so.
Only so recently as week before last
the House adjourned on account OF the
death OF Senator Proctor, Immediately on
being informed of like action on the part
OF the Senate. but yesterday Speaker Can
non refused the request OF Maryland Rep
resentatives that the House adjourn on
account Of the death of Senator Whyte.
The day was spent IN general debate and
not until after o'clock were the usual
resolutions Of regret and respect adopted
and an adjournment taken.
Representative Gill. OF Maryland. pre-
seIted the resolutions OF regret stating
that in Difference to the well-known views
of Senator Whyte there was no provision
in his resolution for the appointment OF a
Congressional committee TO attend the
funeral
II is inferred that the legislative pro-
granme now is TO get 10 work and stay
at work. Apprehension was being felt
among the Representatives that as things
were going the session would drag along
into the summer and present plans 10
adjourn about May Is would fall far
short
