enactment or could not be considered
for lack of time, the following are
regarded by Democratic leaders as
paramount:
Bill for government purchase or
charter of transOceanic ships for the
eSta bliShment of American mer-
chant marine which encountered the
most stubborn filibuSter in the history
of the senate, created an inSurgent
movement in the Democratic ranks
and held up general legislation for
weeks of the last session.
The immigration bill, including a
literacy test for admission of aliens,
which passed both houses, was vetoed
by President Wilson and failed by a
narrow margin to repass the house on
a motion to overturn the veto.
Conservation measures urged by the
president to provide d new system for
leasing system to open the mineral re-
sources of the country.
Bill to enlarge the measures of Phil
ippine self-government and to extend
promises of ultimate independence to
Filipino people, measure which
passed the house and was approved by
a senate committee.

merce commission of the issue of rail-
road securities. originally a part of
the administration antitrust pro-
gram.
Rural credits legislation contem-
plating the establishment of a system
of farm mortgage loan bank, persist

In addition to the foregoing, scores
of general legislative bills covering a
wide range of subjects died with the
end of the congress, among them,
measures for federal road improve
nent general waterway development,
reorganization of the civil service, to
prohibit importation of convict made
goods, and several measures for re-
organization of the army.
The last session of the congress was
notable. too, for the failure of two
great issues. national prohibition and
woman suffrage. Proposed constitu-
tional amendments precipitated two of
the most exciting legislative battles in
the history of the house of representa-
tives both measures failing to receive
a necessary two-thirds vote.
Foreign Relations.
Foreign relations of the nation were
constantly to the fore almost from the
beginning of the congress, the Next
can situation requiring close attention
from the outset as has the European
war Throughout the session the
president and the senate foreign rela-
lions committee were in frequent con-
strain unusual demonstrations which
might have disturbed international
tranquility.
Early in the session general arbitra-
ton treaties with several great foreign
powers were renewed for five year
periods and 26 peace commission
treaties providing for invest cation of
international disputes before resort to
arms were negotiated and ratified A

Baker may not put in his appearance
at the Jacksonville training camp. He
may not even break into the opening
American League contest here on
April IA with the Boston Red SOx,
but he will be back before the pen
nant race has grown more than two
weeks old. This new light was thrown
on the Baker situation by one close in
the councils of Connie Mack.
The authority for this said that
Connie Mack Crossed Baker when
he announced that the Home Run
King" had retired. He pointed out
that Baker had quit in past years, but
Mack showed more patience and
coaXed him back without making any
announcement, but this time Connie
made the situation public.

Filling these orders will not inter-
fere with the business the company
is receiving from fertilizer factories
/ for deliveries of acid products. AT
this time the company's total output
is being Sold to the fertilizer people
In order to fill the contracts for
sulphuric acid received from the du-
Pont people. the Davidson Company
is spending about s150,000 in improv-
/ ing its plant in this city. This was
made necessary because the sui
phuric acid ordinarily manufactured
by the Baltimore company could not
be utilized in the manufacture of
powder until carried through the re-
fning process. To do this the plant
had to be enlarged. Work on the
new additions has been rushed and
soon will be finished.
