Determination Of definite policy re-
and wireless as interstate carriers and
legislative action looking to the devel-
opment of motor truck routes as auxil-
iaries to the railroad system will be
considered by the incoming Congress in
connection with the determination re-

Representative Esch of Wisconsin,

of good roads both by the federal gov

CHAMP CLARK TAKING TIME.
Declares He Will Not Be Hurried
Into Statement on League.

Champ Clark is not going to be
hurried by his critics or by those
interested in discrediting him before
the people, in anticipation that he
may be a presidential candidate, into
making any hasty statement regard
ing his stand on the league of ma
tions. He sticks to his declaration
made in Atlanta a week ago that he
is carefully studying the matter and
will make a statement or a speech
at what he considers the proper time.
Meanwhile any inquiry from Repre-
sentative Mays of Utah. or others
associated with the movement to oust
Speaker Clark as party leader in the
next Congress, will be unavailing II
their purpose Is to excite Mr.. Clark
into a controversy.
IT they want to fight they will
get all the night they want" said
Speaker Clark.

Speaker would make upon his return
to the Capitol regarding the intensi-
fed effort during his absence on his
speaking trip to develop a sentiment
against his continuance as demo-
cratic leader in the House.
