CURRENCY, TRUST
TARIFF QUESTIONS
WILL BE FIRST CONSIDERATION
OF CONGRESS IN WILSON AD-
MlNISTRATlON.

washington, Jan. 30.-Currency leg.
islation will be passed by congress
early in the Wilson adinismtration.
1t is likely tat it will be disposed of
at the special session.
That Governor Wilson wants the
currency question, the trust question
and the tariff question disposed of
at the special session is known here.
He has not yet reached the point of
saying these things must be disposed
of but it is likely to come to that.
The tariff revision will come as a
matter Of course.
Wilson, moreover, has a distinct
notion of the great Importance of
solving the currency question and not
having that dragging along to trouble
him. His disposition as to trust and
corporation matters is indicated in
recent speeches and in the bills sub
mitted to the New Jersey legisla-
ture.
Nobody need be surprised if the
special session which is coming next
spring resolves itself into a session
of much more than tariff importance.
Moreover, it is likely to last through
the summer. If the currency ques-
ton is disposed of in aditon to the
tariff, even if the trust and corpora
tion problem is not tackled, congress
ill be here most Of the summer.
Some important reasons appear
why Governor Wilson should desire
to have the currency question out of
the way. In the first place, the emer-
gency currency measure will last only
until June 30, 1914.
Neither Governor Wilson nor the
democratic leaders are unaware Of
the talk that if there is genuine tariff
revision or radical legislation on the
trusts, there are going to be finan-
cial disturbances. 1t may or may not

amendment after that body had de-
bated the project for hours, during
which several propositions were sub

In the debate on the measure sec
tional feeling was obliterated and
representatives from the north and
south Joined in tribute to Lincoln.
The substitute proposal of Repre-
sentative Borland of Missouri for a
national highway between Washington
and Gettysburg received little sup
port. Representative Stevens Of
Texas proposed the erection OF a
huge assembly hall in Washington, to
be known as the Lincoln Memorial
hall, as substitute for the monu.
ment, but it was also ruled out of or

gestion of a memorial arch.

Plans of the Fine Arts Commits
sion call for the erection of a mon

made for its construction.
Representatives Mann, Evans, Can
