Republican Leaders See
Work Nearly Done.

Republican leaders now see no reason
why Congress should not adjourn the
last week in June or by July /.
All the administration bills that are "a
be passed upon at this time have gone
through the House. Pending in the SEN
ate are the land withdrawal bill, the
Statehood bill, and the postal bank bill
The latter will be concurred in by ;he
Senate as it has passed the House IN
surgent Senators object 10 some Of its
provisions
They will deliver a speech or two in
opposition. but will make no effort to
prevent a vote.
Indications are that the postal savings
bin will go TO the President for approval
the latter part OF this week. As soon as
the sundry bill has been passed by tho
Senate that body will return 10 the land
withdrawal bill, the only important con-
servation measure that is 10 be acted
upon at this time.
A withdrawal bill has already been
passed by the House, and it is expected
that an early agreement will be reached
on this measure in conference.
The fate of the Statehood bill Is I'M
decided. The administration has strong
ly urged that Congress should not ad-
journ without admitting Arizona and
New Mexico TO the Union. The State
hood bill passed the House early in the
session. 1t was reported to the Senate
weeks ago. but so far it's friends have
been unable to get action on It.
There is group Of Western Senators,
among them Senator Borah. of Idaho.
who insist that there shall be a vote on
Statehood before adjournment
Only three supply bills remain to be
passed.
