CONGRESS TO CON.
VENE APRIL 7
Nothing But Tariff To
Be Considered
Until settled. Leaders OF Both sides
Satisfied. No Subject Mentioned
In Proclamation

The extra session Of Congress. call
ed By President Wilson, to assemble,
April !, will begin with nothing but
the tariff revision bills before it.
This fact was made clear in state
ment Monday by Rep. Underwood.
chairman of the House committee on
ways and means. Until tariff legisla-
ton is we'll underway in the House no
general committees will be named
and no other legislative subjects will
be taken up.
The President specified NO subject
for the extra session in his proclama-
ton, but is is fully understood that
his message to Congress at its open
/ ing will dwell on need of tariff reyi-
sion. If currency, Philippine indie
pendence Alaskan affairs, woman
suffrage are pressing questions
! finally forced upon the attention OF
j Congress, it will be only after the
Democratic leaders of the two houses
and the President is convinced thai
the success of tariff revision is as
sured.
The date fixed for the tariff session
was accepted by Congressional lead
ers with satisfaction Committees are
organized for work and will take up
the preliminary stages of much gen
eral legislation early in April. A gen
eral agreement exists, however, to
keep general subjects out of active
discussion while tariff legislation is
underway.
The House leaders will be ready to
go ahead with tariff revision as soon
as the session convenes.
