Senators and representatives will find printed copies of the bill on their desks when they arrive in the capitol Tues day morning. It is more than likely that the bill will be at once referred to the committee on the judiciary. There is the possibility that a bill will be introduced in the senate for an ap- propriation to meet the expenses of taking the vote and that it will be re- ferred to the proper committee. It. too, will be an administration meas ure.
 A recess win be taken to enable the committees to hold hearings and decide on their reports to be made on the bills referred to them off consideration. It may be quite late possibly 3 o'clock, in the afternoon when the two, houses will resurif their sessions. Provision will be made for the payment of mileage of members and the desired legislation enacted Final adjournment may not be reached until about o'clock. There is nothing certain about the
 time of adjournment. If the legis- lators decide that it is desirable to finish their business early in the afternoon they may cut down the time of recess to an hour or even to a shorter period and in that event there is no reason why final adjourn mont. cannot be reached by o'clock in the afternoon.
