Congress is bending nightly to its task
just now but, apart from a spectacle of
mid-winter industry, the proceedings are
rather devoid of interest Committees OF
Senate and House have been plodding
along for the last six weeks and have
ground out their annual product of bills.
Soon the chairnen will be relaxing.
Fewer congressman will be Fastening to
the Capitol in the early forenoon for com
mittee duties. The great thrush of citi
zens seeking to be heard on wide va
riety of subjects will diminish. The corps
of official stenographers, attending upon
the hearings to take it all down verba-
tim, will have less to do. The govern
ment printing office will be less occupied

which are sent to the committees and cir

Most of the big supply bills. carrying a
total of over $1,000 10000 are past the
stage of hearings. In preparing those
measures people throughout the country
figure but little, but officials of the de-
partments are called upon the carpet. Ev-
cry cabinet official has his inning. The
secretary of state must come as a wit
ness before appropriation committees. He
must tell why appropriations for the
state department should be made and
explain the exigencies of the govern
ment's service, diplomatic and otherwise,
abroad. The secretary of the navy gets
his grilling before the naval affairs COM
mittee as the secretary of war does be-
fore the military affairs committee. The
ordeals are chiefly before House commit
tees. The corresponding Senate commit
tees can hold such hearings If they wish

The bulk of all this work is done. Five

Congress is only fairly well along with

probably tired already of the Washington
