There will he no legislation provld-

Government at this session Of Con

ing to Senator Reed Smoot of Utah,
chairman of the Senate finance com
| mittee, and Representative Martin
Madden of Illinois. chairman of the
House appropriations committee. who
conferred with the President today
regarding pending legislation.
These leaders declared chances are
slight that any great amount OF
pending legislation. other than the
regular appropriation bills, will be
passed before adjournment. 1t is ex-
pected that most of the remaining
administration. measures will be lost
in the shuttle during the eleventh-hour
windup. The President was advised
that Indications point to adjournment
between May Is and June /.
Smoot Expects Delay.
Senator Smoot was inclined to
think June l would be closer to the
adjournment time. but Mr. Madden
felt fairly sa tisfied that everything
would be in shape. to close UP as
early as May Is.
The purpose of the conference was
70 advise the President of the leg
islative situation 10 date in the
House and Senate. The President
also wanted TO know about certain
legislation in which he is par
ticularly interested, and also if
Congress would adhere to his warn
l'inG regarding appropiating money
other than what has been proposed in
the budget estimates.
Senator Smoot. who has for humber
of years been advoca ting a complete
reorganization of the Government
department. said without any
hesitation that there will be no re-
organization legislation at this
session. He explained that this does
not mean that there is any notice
able opposition to the proposition,
but the attempt to effect reorGanl-
zation has been temporarily dropped
because more pressing matters are
demanding the attention of both the
Senate and House. He added also
| that there is feeling among SEN
ators and Representatives to adjourn
| just as soon as they pass the last
regular approximation bill and
dispose of several of the more urgent
measure now pending.
The Senator included in the latter
the public buildings bill, which he feels
confident will be enacted; some form
of farm relief legislation. and ratifi-
cation of the Italian debt settlement.

Thus Mussolini ended an address
to the new directorate OF the Fascist
party only few hours after he had
been shot through the nose yesterday.
Mussolini, as in the case when the
