AGREEING ON POSTAL BANKS
Harmonious Caucus Indicates
Passage of Bill,

Washington, May 25-The first of series

consideration of the postal savings bank
bill held tonight. 1t entirely
harmonious, and when adjournment was
taken at IL o'clock there was a general
feeling that an agreement will be reached
on bill which will command the support
of enough Republicans to insure its pas
sage in the near future.

were not present at the caucus. They are
Representatives Cooper. Cary. Nelson and
Lenroot, of Wisconsin: Davis. Volstead
and Lindberg. of Minnesota; Hubbard and
Woods, of Iowa; Poindexter, of Washing
ton: Fowler, Of New Jersey: Norris and
Hinshaw. Of Nebraska, and Gronna, of
North Dakota
II the caucus can agree on bill. II Is
the plan TO bring in a special rule provid-
ng for its passage without amendment
Unless the insurgents are able TO gain re-
cruts their alliance, with the Democrats
will not furnish enough votes to defeat this
programme.
Representative Currier presided at to-
nights calcus. A long speech in explana-
ton of the proposed bill was made by
Representative Gardner, of New Jersey. A
general debate followed in which various
amendments. most of them relating to
phraseeIogy. were suggested
The one stumbling block In the way OF
an early agreement is the section relating
10 the deposit OF postal savings funds.
Many Republicans have ideas as to the
best means for safeguarding home control
of funds which are 10 be placed in the local
banks. This section was not reached to-
night, Another caucus will be held to-mor-
row night
