SENATE WAITING FOR
HOUSEFINANCERI-LS

WASHINGTON, May 3i.-lf Congress

next four weeks OF the extra session
that Il has made in the last two weeks
all seven OF the big appropriation bill!
left overEn March and several Other
urgent measures VIII be safely passed
by the beginning OF the next fiscal
year, July 1.
I The House has exceeded almost all eX-
pectations by the business-like way 10
] met. organized and went right 30 work
passing urgent appropriation bills.
The Senate has not moved so rapidly
as the House and on several days has
not met at all because on account OF
| the rule that all appropriation bills
must originate in the House. IL has
had nothing 70 work upon and Is still
waiting upon the House TO send the
bills over
With no need for immediate haste.
the Senate leisurely organized and now
has that all smoOted out, with the old
line Republicans in the saddle and the
so-called insurgents scattered in defeat.
The Senate has divided its time between
taking three-day recesses and listening
10 speeches by its members on the
league OF nations, a non-exhaustible
subject in this chamber.
But the one measure that has been
passed by both houses-the war-risk
bureau deficiency appropriation bin.
sppropriating $4,000 O0O-was passed
by the senate with only three minutes
debate, while the House took forty-lve
minutes.
Because OF the necessity for Il pass
ing all the urgent appropriation bills
first, the House got down 70 business
with expedition seldom equaled. The
Republican had agreed upon their
choice for Speaker and the other elec-
tive officers before the session convened
and had made up their committee slate.
On the first days session they elected
their Speaker and the other officers and
adjourned in two hours.
In the first two weeks OF the extra
session the following has been done:
House.
Perfected organization, consisting OF
election OF Speaker and other House OIL
GERS, appointment Of committees, etc.
Passed War-Risk Bureau bill.
Passed woman suffrage amendment.
Completed discussion OF Indian appro
priation bill, which is now ready for
flnai massage.
Took up urgent deficiency bill with
prospect Of promptly passing Il.
Senate.
Completed organization with election
OF all committees.
Passed War-Risk Bureau bill.
Took up, debated and laid aside until
next Monday, the suffrage amendment.
After July 4, with the routine ap-
preparation bills out OF the way, Con-
gress win get down to measures like
changing the tariff. revising the war
revenue bill, turning the railroads and
telegraphs back 10 their owners. water
