MI Underwood over the question of ad-

Mr.. Underwood's leadership in the House.
something that no one else has been able
TO see, and big and irreparable split in
the party in power.
As a matter of fact there is no serious
disagreement between the President and
Mr., Underwood. The President is anxious
that this session of Congress stock on the
job until the trust bills are passed. Mr..
Underwood believes and has so told the
President that Congress ought to pass the
Appropriation bills and go home. Mr..
Underwood not only voiced his own iudg-
ment in this statement to the President.
but he voiced the almost unanimous
opinion of the House. In fact. IT was
only after pressure had been brought to
bear upon him by his colleagues that Mr..
Underwood talked with the President
upon the matter.
At that talk Mr.. Underwood frankly
stated his position to the President. He
explained to him that many members
were anxious to go home and get into
their campaigns, and for that reason after
the appropriation bills were passed IT
would be difficult to keep a quorum of
the House in Washington.

be better for the party and all concerned
TO defer consideration of the trust bills

had obtained some rest and recreation.
The President did not take this view. He
thinks it best to get the trust bills on
the statute books as soon as possible.
The conference was pleasant and cordial.
And it was finally agreed that Congress
would go ahead and pass the appropria-
ton bills and then see what the situation
was with reference to the trust bills.

he must not attempt to place himself
too much in the limelight. In view
of this fact it is truly surprising what
an amount of work he has accomplish
ed since he took his seat as member
little over year ago. Not only has
he secured liberal appropriations from
the federal exchecquer for his district
but be has fathered legislation that
will be of inestimable benefit to the
