COMMITTEE UNDECIDED
The Sennte Judiciary Trio Worried
For Report On CLAYTON Bill.


Washington, June 24.-After ten
days consideration of the Clayton anti
trust bill. passed by the <house, the
senate judiciary committee tonight ap-
parently was no nearer conclusion
as TO what 1t shall report. TO the SEN
ate than 1t was the day It took its
first look at the measure.
Members Of. the committee have
found little common ground for pro-
hibftion Of interlocking ,directorates
ana holding companies. and they have
not finally agreed on how. to prevent
price fixing. The so-called labor sec
lions have led to endless rarguments.
The prospects for an early agreement.
some members of the committee say.
is not encouraging and sentiment
against reporting any such measure
at this time Is growing.
a new complication. in the situation
CAME tonight wheng Senator Cutnmins
offered five propositions which he
asked the judiciary committee to an
prove report as amendments to
the fed II trade commission bill.
These amendments would make in
terlocking directorates and holding
companies among railroads or other
corporations unlawful where they rc-
strain commerce, and would 1--we the
trade commission or the Interstate
commerce commission po1 er to deter
mine when they restrain commerce.
There was talk again today about
an effort to have the president agree
to limit the amount of anti-trust leg
islation at this session.

REICHSTAG CLOSED
IS FOREIGN. RIDDLE:
German Political Experts Have
So Far Been Unable To An.
swer Conundrum
fny Associated drfssa9Sf n


Berlin, June A. The action OF the
government In closing the Reichstag
instead of adjourning 1t, has furnish
ed a conundrum'' which the political
experts have not yet been able to an
swer. The governments object IA Sot
known, and It's action Is wondered at
the more because 1t meant the extinc=
tion OF NUMEROUS pending measures
desired by the government, most OF
which were certain to be passed, on
all which must hard work had been
done. Equally mysterious was the
governments covert threat to dissolve
the Reichstag. making new elections
necessary IL 1t adopted, as It seemed
for time likely to. do, a Socialist
measure providing an increase in pay
OF $24 yearly for certain postoffice
employees. Even the newspapers
friendly to the government ridlculed
the Idea of going to the people on an
issue 30 trivial.
Foremost among the measures
thrown into the waste-basket by the
closing OF the Reichstag was the pc
troleum. Others, to suffer the same
tate were the measures to regulate
bookkeeping. to define the rights and
duties, OF ayiators, to establish q i'll
venfle. court, to ;sharDenS !. the laws
against filth in word and picture"
to regulate Sunday employment, to es-
tablish a colonial court, TO amend.tke
business law. The new excise bill. and
many others. Against this. list Of un-
completed work the accomplishments
OF the late Reichstag are very small.
so long as 1t had to deal with broad
national questions. such as the arr
mament and taxation bills, where the
non n-Socialist parties were united
against the Socialists. the work went
ahead smoothly. but as soon as these
were out Of the way, shifting allian-
ces Of factions prevented any real
work from being accomplished
Not all the blame for the little done
during the long session rests upon the
Reichstag. So monarchical q paper
as the TAEGLICHE RUNDSCHAU
sharply crittcises the governments
"doctrinariahiHm. passing the bounds
Of the permissible" and its stubborn
ness." 1t declares also that from the
first there was a lack of intelligent.|
direction OF affairs on the side Of the
government. It Is also q fact that.l
the ministers OF various departments
on many occasions failed to show the |
fact necessary for dealing with the
representatives Of the people, and on
more than one occasion made tntortu-
nate .blunders. :: Yi y, !
