Revision of Political Forecasts.
It already is apparent that the eX-
traOrdinary unsettling of party lines
in congress is destined TO exert a pro-
found influence upon the political MS
tory of the next two years. among
the effects foreseen are the breaking
of numerous presidential bcoms Ill
both parties, and among the POSSIBLE
ties is the return of the Democrats to
complete power in the presidential
and congressional election in 1874.
With Republican control OF the ma
tional legislature rendered unstable, 1t
is p certainty that President Harding,
if he can avoid it, will not summon
in extraordinary session the Sixty
eighth congress, which otherwise VIII
not convene until December, 1923.
Extra Session for This Month.
The President will endeavor to
crowd the remainder of his legisla-
tive program through the present con-
gress before it expires March next,
and to that end is expected to call an
extra session this month to press for
massage of the ship subsidy bill, which
he could not expect to put through the
rext congress with it's Democratic
membership approaching close to a
majority.
The casualty list of the election OF
senators, according to the latest re-
turns, shows a loss of ten seats 10y

Now for the Ship Subsidy Legislation

sion after March 4. Mr. Harding be-
lieves the country would welcome
legislative holiday &C nine months next
year.
BY calling congress in extra session
two weeks this fall, President Harding
believes the ship subsidy legislation
can be well under way if Ii has not
been finally passed IN the house by the
time the regular session begins Deem
Der 4.
When President Harding yielded to
the desire of his party leaders and did
not insist upon consideration of ship
subsidy legislation II the last session
of congress he let il be known that he
would insist on its consideration at an
early date.
The feeling is still ssrong that 1T will
be impossible to get through any sub

position manifested in various sections
of the country. Nevertheless the Ex-
ecutive wants congress TO go on record

Such recommendations as will be
made by Secretary Mellon, it is stated,
will be chiefly for the purpose of in
fiuencing public opinion in the direc-
ton which the administration believes
the revision eventually should take.
Secretary Melons recommendations
will include those made in his annual
report a year ago. such as further
reduction i'm Surtax on individual in
comes a reduction from the high war
time estate taxes, and some method OF
raising necessary additional revenue
by tax on certain specific articles or
a lOw-rate general tax on broad class
of articles or transactions.
Each of the three recommendations
meets with strong opposition from the
radical element in congress.
