Washington.-The movement to or
ganize a Progressive bloc" in con-
gress has taken definite form at a
conference behind closed doors attend
ed by more than a score of senators
and representatives of the present

mary to a general conference of ma
tional Progressive leaders.
Agriculture and labor were the prin-
cipal elements represented at the

Toilette disclaimed specifically there

party, declaring the whole purpose was
the formation Of a bipartisan Pro-
gressive group to work in co-opera-
ton for progressive legislation.
Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho,
said, "If this meeting is to make a
practical and effective organization
to promote progressive legislation then

But if it is a political gathering to
deal with political subjects and presi-
dental possibilities, then 1 do not be-
lieve this is the place to do it,"
The session adopted resolutions de-
claring the purpose was to "drive spe-
cial privilege from control" Also it
is proposed to abolish the elecoral col
lege and provide for earlier meetings
of new congresses. Se~nator-elect B
K. Wheeler, Democrat, Montana, also
was present.
A general public conference was held
the day following organization Of the
bloc, which was attended by more thar
100 members of congress, governors
and other leaders.
Speeches urging aid for farmers
were made by Senators-elect Wheeler
Montana, and Frazier, North Dakota
They said the farmers were not re
ceiving the cost of production and were
suffering from high freight rates ano
car shortage. Investigation of the cal
situation was advocated by Wheeler
who declared:
"The present administration is try
ing to forestall any action by the Pro.
gressives and steal their thunder"
