When the newly elected Republican
Congress was convened In special ses-
sion April II, 1921, the nation was still
legally at war with the Central Powers
of Europe and the domestic problems
confronting the country were of great
er magnitude than any previous ad'
ministration in the history of the
United~ States had ever been called
upon to solve.
The President and the Congress had
a well-defined program of rehabilita.
ton and reconstruction. In his address
opening the special session of Con-
gress the President asked the pas
sage Of a resolution declaring state
of peace between the United States
and the Central Powers. He urged, in
addition, the enactment of an emer-
gency tariff, a permanent tariff, the
creation of budget system; legisla-
ton providing relief to agricultural in
terests; federal aid to public high
ways; a new tax law which would les
sen the burden of public taxation and
eliminate excess profits taxes; con-
solidation of the various government
agencies handling relief for ex-service
men; maternity and infancy welfare
law; a law to punish lynching by fed
eral statute; encouragement for and
regulation of cable and radio service;
and, above all else, rigid economy in
appropriations for the operating ex-
penses OF the Government
The best and the conclusive answer
as to whether or not the Republican
Congress has co-operated with the Re-
program is the citation of the record
of accomplished acts. The Emergency
Tariff was a law May 81 The reso
luton terminating state of, war be-
tween the United States and the Cen
trail Powers was in full force and eff
feet July 2. The Budget Law was in
force and effect June 10, in time TO
apply to the new fiscal year beginning
July l. The Sweet Bill to coordinate
all agencies dealing with ex-servica
men was law by August 9.
In order to assist the agricultural
interests the Congress amended the
War Finance Corporation Act, which
provided a round billion dollars of new
credit for agricultural and livestock
interests; passed the Packers and
Stockyards Act, the Capper-Tincher
Act to regulate grain exchanges and
the Nelson-Curtis Act, which increased
the funds available for farm loans in
the sum of $25,OdO,OO0.
II enacted the Maternity and In
fancy Welfare Act. 1t appropriated

STE, 100000 for federal aid in building
of public highways. 1t enacted a law
for the protection of American owned
cable and radio service. 1t enacted a
new tax measure, which reduces the
public taxation for the currept year IN
the sum of $S1S, 100000, the bulk OF
which is saved to the man of medium
income.
In addition to enacting the Budget
Law creating the Budget Bureau, I'M
der which all economies which have
been made by executive departments
were made possible, the Congress,
upon it's own initiative, cut over $780,
100000 from appropriations requested
by various departments and boards
thus carrying out the Presidents de-
sire for rigid economy.
In addition to carrying out the Pres
ident's program it enacted restrictive
immigration law. 1t amended the
Edge Act in order to facilitate Amer
ica's foreign trade. 1t reorganized the
Philippine financial system in order to
save the islands from bankruptcy as
result of maladministration under
the Wilson regime. 1t reorganized the
Indian Bureau and reorgani2ed the
Postal Service and readjusted salaries
in that department. In fulfllment OF
the Presidents request, the House
passed a permanent tariff measure,
the Fordney Bill. The House also
90
passed the Dyer Bill, which makes
lynching federal offense and PROVIDES
for federal punishment of that crime
In his annual message to Congress
in December, the President made sup
Elementary recommendations, among
them being the enactment or CO
lucrative marketing law; the appro'
priation of funds to relieve the FAMINE
/ in Russia: the creation OF commls'
sion TO handle the refunding of our
foreign loans; and the enactment OF
legislation to stop the issuance OF tax
exempt securities.
Every one of these recommendations
has been enacted into law with the
! execution of the one regarding the IS
suance of non-taxable securities ana
bill to carry that recommendation into
effect is now well on its way through
Congress.
This record shows that the House
co-operated with the President exact
" 100 per cent in enacting such leg
islation as he recommended-a record
of cooperation between the executive
and legislative branches of Congress
which has no equal in the annals of
American legislation.
