CAME AS A SURPRISE
Special Message Was Not Ex=
pected From the President
HOUSE LEADERS OFFENDED
Got impression That Chief Executive
Would Let Congress Have Its Way
His Acton Gives Minority Comfort
and Fresh Courage

Washington April 29-Although
nearly every member of the house had
read the presidents special message in
the newspapers, u large number re-
fully following the words of the read
ing clerk. When the portion Of the
message referring to the multi-million-
aire whose son is a fool and his daugh-
ter a foreign princess" was reached
there was storm of applause, equally
prominent on both sides of the house
The general talk about congress Is to
the effect that the presidents message
will not cause any change to be made
In the tentative program to adjourn
this session in, about three weeks. For
the last two or three days there has
been more talk about May % than Of
May Is as the quitting date.
This last message has tended to In
crease the resentment in congress
against the White House. The legisla-
tive leaders supposed they had reached
q working agreement with the presl-
dent week ago. Representative Wat
son, the whip" of the house, who held
several conferences with the president
at the request of the speaker, got the
impression that the chief executive was
willing to let congress have its way and
so reported to the speaker.
The tenor of that report was that
while the president still felt that his
legislative program should be carried
out, he realized that it could not be put
through, and therefore, in the interes
of party harmony, was willing to re
main passive. But few senators ol
representa- tives had any intmatiol
that another message was coming in
Zach branch of the legislative body dis
played its feelings by adiourning before
the message had been read.
The Republicans of the hOuse-th,
organization Republicans-are partic
ularly offended because the message
they saS, lends comfort to the minority
which has all along justified its ill
buster on the assertion that the ObstruC
tive methods were being used as
weapon to compel the majority to enac
the legislation demanded by the pres
dent
1--WE were getting along splendidly,
said the majority leader. THE ill
buster showed signs of weakening. bu
now that the White House has throw
the minority another crumb we ma
expect Mr.. Williams and his flock t
take fresh courage"
The course of the president is az
proved by few Republicans in senat
and house who insist that cOngreS
should carry out the program the pres
dent has laid down.

was read to the senate Immediately a

role in his Honor, the Mayor" is so
totally different from any other char

able praise from press and public, and
even in conservative old Boston, the
critics INDUCED in printed ecstacies
over his droll humor.
The English pony ballet contributes
sparkle to the performance by their
dancing. They are distinctly in

more attractive by the charming per-
