RETURN EMPTY HANDED

When is the present session of Con.
gress going TO adjourn so that We may
get back home with the voters?''
The question today interests thirty-two
Senators and AS members of the House
of Representatives. There has been very
little time for political fence repairing
during the past year and everybody who
has been on the job in Washington is out
of touch with the fellows who will cast
the votes in the Congressional campaign
next summer
In keeping the extra session of Con-
gress going from April to December /,
President Wilson probably blighted many
a political career, especially in view of
the decision that the extra session must
be devoted to the tariff and currency
to the exclusion of private legislation
which was of particular interest to the
individual member of Congress and his
constituency. The situation now con-
fronting the average legislator is a pecu-
liar and troublesome one.
When the present session adjourns
every member of the House must scurry
homo to face reelection, and thirty-two
Senators. for the first time, must sub
ject themselves to the direct election
laws. These candidates have had prac-
tically no opportunity for twelve months
past to keep acquainted with the voters

ton talking about the tariff and cur
rency.
The Democratic member Of the House
was particularly hard hit by a ses-
sion which kept him away from home
all summer. During the weeks when the
House marked time" while the Senate
wrestled with the currency measure, it
was noted that the Republican leaders
insisted each day upon making a point
of no quorum and forcing a roll call.
The roll call was to show up the Dem
ocratic absentees and the Republicans
were playing a shrewd political game.
Another problem facing the average
House member who wants to get back
home early this summer is his empty
handedness. The extra session was de-
voted to big things. with no chance for a
private bill. The present session will be
devoted largely to trust legislation and
bills, still with little chance
for private bills. When he goes back
home. therefore, the new member of the
House who came here last April PROM

hold out empty hands and make excuses.
