Congress Faces Lonr Grind

Washington. Dec. MANY months
work on d great variety of impor-
tant SUBJECTS international and do
mestic. We're before the 65th Con-
gress today when il met for its sec
und and regular session, which
was expected to close only with the
presidential campaign next fall.
Members of both Senate and House
returned to work with only ten days
rest since the adjournment Of the
extraordinary session which ended
Nov. 10 when the Peace Treaty
failed of ratification in the Senate.
Because of the extra session the
opening day lacked much of the
usual hustle attending the launching
of a new session.
When the Congress already 'in
harness and with much Legislation
ready for immediate consideration.
little delay in the beginning Of work
was expected. Calling Of Senate and
House rolls for quoruYns, appoint
ment of committees to notify the
President and each other that Con-
gress again was "on the job were
among the customary opening for
malities.
Besides Legislative recommends
tions President Wilson's message
was expected to deal with interna-
rional relations and particularly
with the treaty Of Versailles. While
early ratification of the treaty with
compromised reservations was ex-
pected by many senators, with hopes
of action before the new year. lead
ers believed the issues involved
would be carried into the presiden-
tial campaign.
Politics is due to play a large part
in the events of the new session, the
last before the nominating conven-
tions next summer and the final cam
paign in the fall. Leaders propose to
have Congress recess for the con-
ventions and work through after
ward into October.
Enactment or Legislation IN ex-
pected to begin Immediately. The
Senate today had pending. with
privileged status the Cummins rail-
road bill with its provisions against
strikes and for return Of the railroads
to private ownership. In the House.
the bill to restrict Immigration and
provide Tor deportation Of alien rad
icals was first on the calendar. The
House probably will be occupied
largely with the appropriation bills
for many weeks and leaders hope to
enact several measures before the
Daily Kennebec journal., 1919-12-02

According to these figures It will cost
more than five times as much TO conduct
the peace-time affairs of government
rs ii did n the year Immediately pre-
ceding the world war
The greatest individual estimates for
expenditures. of course, 60 to the army
and The navy. The yearly interest on
the war debt. however, is SLOT 500 900
which sum alone is greater than all the
app o; riarions for all purposes whaSse-
ever of any pence-time Congress.
All in all the estimates justify the
predictions made on the floor of Con-
gresE during consideration of the war
tax bills. that the present generation
would not see the government conduct
lions a year
The estimated appropriations for the
PRINCIPAL government departments were

Prominent among the other meas

BERKELEY SEXTETTE
WITH CHAUTAUQUA

The Berkeley SeXtette, acknowledge
to be the most popular women's or
chestra in the United states, is one OF
the numbers on the Wilmington Chau-
tauqua program that opens at seven
teenth and Union streets on Saturday
June Z. The SeXtette has been playing
together but five years, but during that
time they have toured every State in
the Union. They found fame. in a sim
ple way. They know that many artists
were playing made up almost entirely
OF classical selections, but that no or
ganization aimed at playing music for
entertainment purposes solely. They
made that their object. They found
many classical selections that had this
entertainment feature and put them
in their repertoire.
Then they devised costumes OF SILK
and satin that would ft in with the
numbers both vocal and instrumental
that they render. so that the eye as well
as the ear might be pleased. Their
programs are always brieht and
CHEEKY. They believe in making peo-
pie forget their troubles and worries
and 10 bring about a les strained eX-
preston II not mirth on the faces OF
their hearers is one OF the things that
please these five young American
women the most. In the last three
years. they have given upwards OF 3OO
concerts each year.
