House Is Expected TO
FOllow Senate Lead

II 10 now believed that the House will
follow the example OF the Senate and
take . vote on a motion to table a res
olutio warning Americans not to travel
Oh armed belligerent ships.
The Foreign Affairs Committee of the
House Is scheduled to meet this after
noon and continue the discussion or
yesterday. This was due partly to the
fact that the Senate had taken the
initiative and partly to the desire OF
House members to postpone action as
long as possible.
Rules Committee May Act.
The House policy continues to be one
OF delay. although Administration sup
porters now say tho principle of the
McLemore resolution will come to a
vote because the Senate has stepped
forward and agreed to act.
In the House Foreign Affairs Commit
tee there IL still strong opposition to
reporting any resolution bearing upon
the international situation. Neverthe-
less, Il is claimed the recalcitrant COM
whipped into line.
Congressman Harrison, a member of
the committee, Informed his colleagues
yesterday that the Rules Committee
President II the Foreign Affairs Com
n1ittee procrastinates too long.
Mr.. Harrison happens to be a member
both OF the Foreign Affairs and Rules
committees, and his virtual ultimatum
may have effect.

TO CONSIDER LIMITATION OF

Portland, Ore, Nov. 23.-A 4S-hours
Icf labor a week law for women viii

legislature when it meets the second
Monday in January, by the Consum-
ers' League of Portland.
This act provides that women ma

h l.rs a week 1t does not, however,
Limit their labor to eight hours a
day. The idea is that women may
work more than eight hours for five
days a week, so they may have half
holiday On Saturdays.
The law is modelled generally aft
Ter the California law. Father OHara,
"a prominent member of the Consum-
ers' League, says a bill similar TO
this will probably be submitted to
all the state legislatures assembling
this year.
Another bill to be presented to the
Oregon legislature provides that OWE
ers of cold storage warehouses must
make monthly reports to certain des-
ignated government officials, giving
a detailed inventory of all goods in
their plants. This law is intended
to halt the practice of storing per
