ably suggest to Congress that q num-
ber Of amendments be made in the

gard as ineQuities.
Just what those amendments are
conld not be revealed today, but 1t is

PRESIDENT EXPECTS
PACT RATIFICATION
Administration Has Consid-
cred Senate Feeling in Every
Move in Conference.
By n. O. MESSENGER.

Today's aspect Of conditions at
tending the arms and far eastern
conference warranted the hope of a
plenary session at an early day to
write into the permanent record the
many highly important agreements
that have been reahed in committee
meetings. Difficult and delicate stu
ations. at times approaching the
gravity of crises. have been encom-
passed successfully, and the well
wishers of the undertaking unwrin-
kle the furrowed brow of anxiety
and look forward with confidence to
4 happy outcome.
Already eager eyes are being turned
toward the Senate. seeking light upon
its prospective ratification of the acts
Of the conference. The administra-
ton, according to latest reports from
authoritative quarters, is expectani
of affirmative action. Not unmindful
of the temper of certain influential
elements in that potential body, the
belief prevails in administration cir.
cles that the logic of the situation
spells cooperation of the Senate ulti.
mately.
Considered Rights.
1t Is pointed out that the American
delegation to the conference has pro-
ceeded throughout in a spirit of rec
ognition not only of the rights of
the Senate. but of consideration for
differing views Of members of the
treaty-ratifying branch of the ma
tional legislature. No course, it is
said, has been followed In willful
opposition to any group of senators.
The Senate may be said to be a
part of the conference in fact; two
of its members, invested by the SEN
ate with powers and responsibilities
of party leadership In the Senate,
have by their words and votes assist
ed in building the structure which
will be presented for acceptance.
Senators at White House.
Senator's have been invited to the
White House. their views solicited and
their wishes consulted on various
phases of the work of the confer.
ence. in hand at the time and in con-
temptation. No dogmatic program
has been followed, reflective only OF
administration ideas. The admins
tration. it is contended. has consist.
emily sought to place the efforts OF
the conference above party or fac
tional considerations.
European delegates to the confer
ence are said to be solicitous for
early approval by the Senate for the
effect upon the coming attempt to
stabilize conditions in Europe. Whether
the United States attends the Genoa
conference or not-a question expect
ed to be decided this week-it is ar
gued that the success of that enter
prise will depend in important meas.
ure upon the contamination of the
work of the Washington conference
through the Senate's affirmation.
It is held that the reduction of Euro
mean land armament and military ex-
penditures, regarded by the United
states as essential to readtustment OF
European economics, would be retard-
ed, il not prevented. should the
United States fail in its effort to re-
duce naval armament and conserve
peace in the far east.

Republican Leaders Hold
Conference to Determine
Legislative Course.

AND ADJOURN JUNE !
Hoped All Important Matters Can
Be Disposed Of by That :.
Time. ~. :,

Assurance that the permanent tariff
bill will be reported to the Senate early
in February and passed before the
close of the present session was given
republican leaders in the House by
Senate republican leaders today at a
conference between the two.
Agreement was reached at the con-
ference that the proposed soldier bonus
bill should originate in the House.
House leaders said measure would
be drafted at once by the ways and
means committee. and probably report
ed to the House in two weeks.
House members who attended the
conference reported that they insisted
the legislation program be speeded up
so that Congress could adjourn by
June l, and said that Senate leaders ex-
pressed themselves as hopeful that
all important legislation could be dis
posed Of by that time. ,
Leaders of both houses were said to
have agreed that Senate considera-
treaties should not interfere with
enactment of the permanent tariff bill
or the annual appropriation bills.
Suggestions were made. it Is under
stood, that the Senate either dispose
of the treaties within the next two
months before the final rush caused
by debate on supply measures and
the tariff bill begins. or wait to take
them up at a special session Of the
Senate. These suggestions were said
to have been received favorably by
some of the Senate leaders but op-
posed by others.
Will Confer ON Bonus.
Beyond the decision to have the bo.
nus bill originate in the House the
handling Of that measure was not
finally determined at today's confer
ence. which, 1t was announced. will
be followed by frequent meetings Of
the steering committees Of the two
houses in the future. The bonus bill
will be the subject Of House repuA.

Despite the obstacles raised by SEQ.
retary Mellon and others to the bonus
legislation, the leaders Of both
branches Of Congress today were said
to be in accord that. the bill should
be passed before adjournment. Wheth-
er taxes or some other means to raise
the bonus funds would be included in
the bill was a question left open.
There was said to be some sentiment
among the leaders to pass q bill
granting the bonus and leave over

Senate calendar some leaders 4t
today's conference urged that the

disposal of the pending allied debt

nttely, but was said to be probable.
The republican leaders, agreed to
make an effort to pass before ad-
journment the proposed merchant
marine legislation. but the matter
was left open until the President
transmits his recommendations to
Congress.
