Washington after his 10 days vacation.
dispatches from Washington intimate,
Chairman Fordney and Representative
Mondell will be sitting on the White
House steps awaiting his arrival 1t was
said officially that the President expects
to see the house Republican leaders at the
first opportunity. To get away from
pickering over legislation the President
sought a little Florida sunshine, leaving
congress to work out its own destiny 1t
appears that he will find the domestic
situation unchanged. So far as his efforts
arc concerned he might just as well re-
main away from Washington another
week. for during the last 10 days congress
has accomplished nothing that demands
more than his routine attention.
In failing to comply with the PreSi-
dents suggestion about appropriations
for the army and the navy and either pay
for the bonus by sales tax or postpone
consideration of the measure. congress
