its quota a man now commissioned In
the service, and the board handling
him is In doubt whether or not it will
get him, yet is obliged to list him as a

The Extra Session.

Two views about the extra session are
current. One is that the President will
| make no recommendations outside of
foreign affairs and that Congress will
confne itself TO his recommendations
Such q program might not require a
protracted stay in Washington. The
tables OF the two houses might be clear
ed in very short time. Then re-
turn home until December unless world
connections, taking on new intensities.
forced second extra session.
The other view is that as soon as
organized. Congress will settle down to
work, and cut ont program covering
both foreign and domestic affairs. and
proceed with it as though in regular
session. The Presidents recommenda-
tions will. of course. receive first con-
sideration. but will not determine the
scope of legislative activity. Of that,
Congress will he the Judge, and Judging,
act on its Judgment.
The subject lends itseif 10 specula-
tion. But, as matter of fact every
thing depends. The situation that Con
gress will face when it meets cannot be
forecast; and, necessarily. the Presidents
message must be based upon actuaities
He must deal with what then confronts
him-with one or several subjects. as
the case may require.
There are experienced legislators who
expect and predict protracted session.
In their opinion. the present state of
the world, and particularly of this coun-
try, makes it highly advisable that Con
gress be on deck and in action while the
tension remains great. Not because they
are members, but from both reading
and observation, they regard that body
as steadying influence in times of
stress. There is so much mat it, and
it alone, can do, and which when neces-
sary should be promptly done.
Whatever is done at the extra session
which ordinarily would fall to the regu-
lar session will, of course, be so much
TO the good in shortening the regular
session. Congress Will be able to ad-
journ all the earlier next year, and such
members as aspire to reelection be
able to devote the more time to their
campaigns. The Si1ty-sixth Congress
will be chosen in November, 1918, and
neither party is minimizing the impor-
tance Of controlling that body. Both
will fight for it with all the resources
they can command.
