Taft Threatens to Call Extra Session.
If administration senators had any
doubt about the attitude of President
Taft toward the Canadian reciprocity
agreement it was removed when Sen
ators Crane and Carter returned to
the capitol from a conference with
the president at the White House.
The message which these senators
brought to their colleagues was that
there must be a vote on the agree
ment at the present session or cen.
gress will be called back in extra ses-
sion almost Immediately after ad-
journment on March 4.
The senators were called to the
White House and the president urged
upon them the necessity of expediting
legislation in the senate.
Vice President Sherman and Sena-
tor Smoot were also in conference
with the president.
The message the Massachusetts and
Montana senators took from the
White House to their colleagues was
that there must be a vote on the
agreement at this session or congress
will be called back.
Although Messrs. Crane and Carter
declined to discuss their mission the
news soon leaked out that the presi-

that the country generally favors a
reciprocal f~ade agreement with Can
ada; that the Mccall bill to put the
