What Congress Is Doing
The Senate.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Now that the soldiers bonus bill
has been sidetracked in the Sem
ate and sent back to the finance
committee, there promises to be q
scramble, when the Senate meets
tomorrow, forslegislative right of
way. Senator Sterling Of South
Dakota. in charge of the anti
beer amendment to the Volstead
prohibition enforcement act, is de-
termined to have that measure
taken up and disposed Of as
quickly as possible, on the ground
that it is emergency legislation.
On the other hand, Senator
Norris of Nebraska, backed UP in
large part by the agricultural
bloc is anxious to have the bill
creating governmental corpora
tion. with $100.Oo0.O0o capital. to
ana the farmers export their prod
ucts. taken up first by the Senate.
Senator Sterling moved to take
up the anti-beer bill shortly be-
fore adjournment Friday, but no
vote was reached on the motion.
1t will be renewed by him as soon
as he can get the floor.
In addition to the Norris bill
now on the calendar. to aid the
farmers, two other bills will be
put through for the benefit Of the
agriculturalists as soon as they
can be reported from committee.
They are bill to increase the
size of the Federal Reserve Board
by one member and provide that
he shall be an agriculturalist, and
bill to increase the limit which
may be loaned by the federal
farm loan banks to farmers from
$4,000 to $4,000.
Another measure that is knock
ing at the door is the Sweet bill.
amending the war risk insurance
act and co-ordinating various
agencies dealing with war vet
eraps. This bill will be reported
to the Senate by the finance COM
mite the first Of the week.
Under unanimous consent agree
ment entered into. the Senate is
expected to vote on the so-called
mater..ity bill some day this
week. The vote will come on the
tenth legislative day after June
sc" Since the Senate has been
stead of adjou. nments from day to
day. this day has not yet been
reached.
The bill for free passage of the
Panama canal by American coast
wise vessels. now on the Senate
calendar. will be pressed for ac-
ton by Senator Borahs its author,
also.
The administration is insistent
that action shall be taken as
speedily as possible upon the bill
to authorize the refunding of the
foreign loans. now before the
finance committee. Further hear
ings on this bill will be had this
week.
Despite this plentiful legislative
program. senators are still talk
ing Of and hoping for a midsum-
mer holiday. when the tariff bill
is sent to the Senate from the
House and is referred to the Sem
ate finance committee.
The Senate calendar will be In
order tomorrow and number Of
important District bills are in po-
sition to be reached. including the
street car merger bill, the COM
pulsory education bill. the pro-
posed amendment extending the
Ball rent act to May %. 1922. and

act reported by the District COM
mittee.

PENR0SE ASSURES ACTION
ON SOLDIER BONUS BILL
Senator Declares Finance Commit
tee Will Give Consideration at
First Opportunity.

Chairman Penrose Of the Senate
finance committee said yesterday the
soldiers bonus bill would again be
taken up by his committee for con-
sideration "at a favorable opportu-
nifty. in the same spirit that brought
about its favorable report to the Sem
ate short time since"
"Eevery one comedies the debt which
ID owed veteran survivors of the
world war and widows and orphans
of those who died." continued Sena-
tor Penrose. "As in the past, SO in
the present and the future, they will
remain our cares. Every senator who
voted to recommit the soldier bonus
bill yesterday is in favor of prompt
and adequate legislation"
Senator Penrose said that no one
could have heard the patriotic ap-
peal" for the postponement Of action
on the bonus bill, made by the Presi-
dent, without being deeply impressed.
He added that there will be no
shirking or evasion of responsible
ties. by the republican party. Many
of these responsibilities, he said, are
the result of dreadful waste and in.
efficiency Of the last Administration" i"

Of about 800 apple trees Of different
varieties set out by Mr.. Child,css
four years ago and covering about
four acres of land. Up until last
February the trees did not seem to
be doing any too well, but the latter

some fruit on them now and it is ex-
