 The elections the coming fall are of doubtful issue in the great ma jority of the states of the union. It is contended by republican congress- men, especially those from close dis tricts, that the President. by thrust ing upon them an unwilling part .nership, has made their tasks doubly difficult
 The Congress Ignores
 The Congress, however. will not accept the partnership; that is, Con gress will say nothing or do nothing of an aggressive character. Con gress will provide for an investiga- ton of the coal industry. But that investigation will not have been com pleted, certainly will not have been translated, into legislation before the passage of an entire year, and pos sibiy longer.
 The effect. therefore. will not be influential in the fall elections.
 The other recommendations of the President will be ignored. The Pres ident declared that the republican Congress, which sat during the Will
