3-DAY RECESSES
Lawmakers Depart Tor
Homes and Summer Ne
sorts until Angus "A

Washington, July 13.-Congrsss
was ready tonight to start its sum
mer vacation Monday. The Senate,
after passing the telegraph resolution
agreed to suspend important business
and take a series of three day recess
es until August "a beginning Monday.
A similar program for the house was
blocked late today, but it Is expected
TO 20 through when that body recon-
veneS Monday.
Under the arrangement only few
members will remain 10 attend the
perfunctory sessions twice each week
and outgoing trains tonight earned
senators and members of the House
departing for their homes or summer
resorts
The vacation plan, it S understood
has the sanction Of President Wilson,
who called upon Congress last week
to defe- holiday plans 10 enact the
telegraph resolution. Tie three-day
plan was adopted because Of the con-
stitutional provision against longer
recesses by either House without the
consent of the other, and also because
Congress technically remains in ses-
sion prepared for any emergency ae-
ton
Plans for the recess were almost up
set in the Senate at the last minute
BY informal objections from Senator
johnson, of California, who Said he
believed Congress should stay on the
job" Since the majority Of the Sen
ate was in favor Of the recess, low
ever, Senator johnson did not with
hold unanimous consent.
At the suggestion Of Senator
Smith of Georgia, however, the agree
mcnt was modified 50 as 10 provide
that if quorum should be present be
fore August p. the agreement could
be set aside and regular business
transacted three days thereafter.

A LOYAL AMERICAN
Come all you loyal Americans, where

Come hear, have a story, come listen

But | am a loyal American, I'm sure

My feelings at that moment no human

We fought for nine long hours, before

Ten thousand as noble Americans as
ever be blessed,
Lay sleeping with their comrades,
sweet peace to be their rest.
Perhaps you have a mother, likewise

heart be true.

While still he lives, the truth I die
to learn!
