CONGRESS MAY WORK ALL SUMMER Democratic Members Dis play Dissatisfaction Ov-
 CT the Program.
PRESIDENT INSISTENT
Wilson Makes known to Leaders Measures He Desires Disposed Oi Before Final Adjournment
 Is Taken.

Washington, May 20.-In the shape of a letter to the two leaders of the house and senate. the president has sent his final instructions as to what he warts done before the final ad- iOurnmcnt.
 The program calls for the enact ment of five measures. These are the two trust bills, the Walsh radium bill and a revision of tnc mining iaWs to be patterned after the Smoot leasing bills.
 Leaders of both houses realize that if this program is insisted upon it will be impossible for congress to adjourn much before September 1, if then. Intense dissatisfaction is mani fested by Democrats in congress who see the time for the opening of their campaigns approaching with no opportunity for them to get into the breach and make repairs 10 the fences. lI his communication to the leaders, the president vetoes this. He has made it plain that full .~ pliance with his demands will be 1n- sisted upon, no matter how late the day of adjournment may be.
 The trust program in the senate is included in d single measure. In the house there are three distinet propo- sitions. These practically, as co1- strued by the committees of that body, form the trust program of the president, and those three measures were brought into the house with the white house 70. k." Oil them. The Trust Bills.
 The interstate trade commission Maryland. The general so-called "om- nibus" bill was reported from the |, judiciary committee by Chairman Clayton whoso last official act fin congress before he goes to the fed eral bench will be the piloting of this measure to completion. This Clayton bill provides for the regula- ton of holding companies and inter- locking directorates. It contains also sections providing for anti-injunction and anti-coItempt matters; controls price discrimination and knocks out exclusive contracts. 1t also provides for exemption from the operation of the antitrust laws of labor and agri- cultural organizations, when engaged ir the proper performance of the duty for which they were organized. Demands of organized labor for a general exemption and legislation that would practically legalize the boycott and strike recently was re- jected by the part leaders after a conference with the president. The third trust measure is the Reyburn bill relative to railroad stocks and bonds. This bill gives the government absolute control over the issuance of all securities of Interstate railroad corporations and is intended to prevent the present practice of watering stock and milking the pub lie to pay interest on securities ol this character which represent not dollar of investment.
 The other measures referred tt are held by the president to be necessary to tn general plan of the | administration to conserve the na- tional resources of the country. A promise that was also made in the party platform.
