One notable instance. however. when
the President was forced to turn to
the republicans in the House to get
through legislation occurred when
Representative Kahn, ranking repub-
lican member of the military affairs
committee, had to take charge ana put
through the draft law. when the DEM
ocratic chairman, representative
Dent. opposed the measure. So the
President may yet deal with the re-
publicans in charge of the committees.
All legislation will be carefully
scrutinized by the republicans in the
coming session Of the present Con-
gress, which the democrats still con-
troll. They do not intend to permit
the democrats to win any political
advantages through legislation in the
short session, which ends March ). X
they can help it. 1t has been suG-
gested that the republicans even
might hold up and prevent the pas
sage of the war revenue bill until they
come into power next spring. But This
suggestion was made by democfats
and not by republicans. The fepubli-
cans said today that 1T was q silly
suggestion. They recognize the need
for the revenue legislation, ana also
the fact that unless 1t becomes Q law
by the end of the year much revenue
will be lost to the government which
will be had il the bill becCtnes q law
