SHIP SUBSIDY
BILL MAY WAIT
House Republican Leaders Are
Still Reluctant TO Act on
Measure.

WASHINGTON, . C.-Reconyening OF
the house Tuesday found the republi'
can leaders as reluctant 10 press the
administration ship subsidy bill as
they were when the recess was taken.
Although IL was understood when the
recess was consented to by President
Harding that the subsidy bill, which Is
on the house calendar would be taken
up at once upon the return to Work, no
plans have been made for going ahead
with II.
That the administration has taken
no steps to obtain action on the sub
sidy bill at this time Is officially eX-
planned as being due to the fact that
the president has been engrossed with
the serious situation resulting from
the railroad and coal strikes.
President Hardings threat some
months ago that he would convene con-
greas In special session In case 1t failed
TO act upon the ship subsidy bill Is not
likely to be a factor In the situation.
Congress long ago gave up hopes OF an
early adjournment The present SEES
sion will continue until the tariff bill
Is enacted into law. which may be some
time In October. When adjournment
IL finally taken not more than a few
weeks will remain before the regular
December session. While some adyo
Gates OF the ship subsidy bill think
that the president may call special
session Immediately after the election.
the general view is that but little
would be gained by this course and
that the president would center his
efforts on obtaining action at the win
ter session.
