MR.. MCCALL MAKES THIS AN
NOUNCEMENT AS TO THE
SITUATION.
MUCH WORK AHEAD
ACTION MUST BE TAKEN ON
RECIPROCITY AGREE
MENT.

Washjngton.-The first authorita-
tive announcement that President
Taft will call an extra session if the
Senate fails to act on the Mccall bill
carrying into effect the Canadian
reciprocity agreement came from Mr.
Mccall himself following visit a.
the White House.
According to Mr.. Mccall the Presi-
dent feels he is under an interna-
tional obligation to summon an extra
session, if necessary, to secure action
on the reciprocity agreement.
That session would be called imme-
diately after the adjournment of Con
gress at noon March 4th.
Unless President Taft and the
friends of the Canadian reciprocity
agreement are able to bring more
than ordinary pressure to bear on the
Senate and avert the expenditure of
time by the opponents of the agree
mentor it's friends-it is difficult to
see how the Senate can reach a vote
before adjournment.
for consideration, in addition to ten
general appropriation bills, are meas
ures affecting these subjects:
Popular election of senator's; Sena-
tor Lorimer case; permanent tariff
board; general age pensions; congress
sional apportionment; fortification of
Panama canal.
Not one of these can be sidetracked
without contest. Back of each is a
group of senators determined that a
vote shall be taken.
Some of the measures must be left
unpassed or the Canadian agreement
will die.
Those who hoped to avoid an extra
session by getting vote on the Nc
Call bill see their chances for success
growing less and less as the close o.
the session draws nearer without any
of these controverted matters pushed
out of the way.
