and its aftermath left n bitter di-
! vision between thc Independents,
/ Republicans and Democrats. Pros.
poets pointed to unending strife aud
| little action.
Most of the three months will be
! occupied with routine adoption of
the dozen or more appropriation
bills. The old bitter fights form
/ erly waged over these bills have
disappeared in recent years and it
! is to be expected that all factions
! will cooperate for their early adop-
tion. But if the Independents, who
were read out of the Republican,
party in the senate for their pres
idential insurgency in backing Sen
atOr Robert VI. La Toilette, desire
to force an extra session, they might
do so by delaying action on one or
two of these measures.
Will Abolish Short Session
The practice Of having the short
sessions has long been criticized
from many sources because IL gives
those who were defeated in the last
election an opportunity to legislate
for three months. Steps already
have been taken in congress to abo-
lish the short session and it is not
unlikely that resolution by Sena-
tor Norris, Nebraska, carrying out
this step, will be adopted before
this session closes.
The program for the opening day
was brief. After president pro tenn
Cummius in the senate and Speaker
Gillett in the house had called
both houses to order ut noon and
prayers of the chaplains had been
heard, it was planned only to go
through with routine matters of Or
ganizatiOn before adjourning until
Wednesday out of respect to mem
bers who died during the recess.
On Wednesday the message of
the president informing congress as
to the state of the union VIII be
read At this time, too, the ques-
tion of disposition of Muscle Shoals
is to come up in the senate as the
first order OF business there under
an agreement by unanimous con
sent reached before adjournment
last June.

PROMPTLY, however.

\ Encouragement of committee !
chairmanships is necessary IN the /

tees is expected to meet today or
tomorrow under call of Senator
Watson, Ind, new assistant leader
and make the following appoint
ments:
