Washington he was met by a delega-

and he had so many luncheons and
dinners that he was unable to give
the number. Past Imperial Potentate

one who knows him realizes how well
he could do 1t. He next went to Rich

ROUGH SAILING
FOR RECIPROCITY
Senate May Not Reach Vote
on Measure Before Con.
gress Adjourns

Washington, Feb. 16.-"The failure
Of the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment to pass the senate will force
President Taft to call an extra ses-
sion Of congress. IL the administra-
tion is determined to pass the agree
ment.'
This declaration was made today
by Senator Smoot of Utah, following
a conference at the white house with
the president over the pending legis-
lation. Senators Lodge and Root
were present also. Senator Smoot
announced that the senate would be
given all opportunity to discuss the
reciprocity measure and that the Nc
Call bill would not smothered 1t in
committee. The senator entertained
the belief that once in the senate,
however, the bill will meet obstruc-
tive tactics that would prevent a vote
before the close of congress. March 4.
Shortly after the white house con-
ference ended. Senator Burrows, the
ranking member of the finance COM
mittee. called at the executive man
sion and was closeted with the presi-
dent. On leaving the white house
he announced that he would call a
meeting OF the committee either to-
morrow or Saturday to consider the
bill. He refused to venture guess
as to the length Of time the measure
would be held in the committee.
