C0NGRESS FACING
 MANY PROBLEMS
Studying Tariff With Farm Re
 lief Vote Due

Washington, May 8 0 - The members of congress faced a hard days work today despite that the house, with more than four-fifths or the total membership, was m ad- journment until tomorrow,
 The principal reason lay in the i, necessity for study of the new S5,- oOO-word tariff bill with it's numer- ous proposals for changes in tie seven-year-old schedules now in ef- feet. The bill was not introduced until noon. yesterday. and disagree ments with the decisions of the I house ways and means committee i, republicans who framed it began to crop up immediately throughout the ] capitol.
 The senate's session today, called | an hour earlier than usual, was of scarcely less interest to the members of the two chambers. The senators | had agreed to limit debate on the l export debenture provision of the !, farm relief bill after p. m. with ! . vote impending which would pro- vide the first test of administration l strenth in that chamber since the ! election of President Hoover in view of his announced opposition to the l proposal.
 The senate interstate commerce I committee. meanwhile, was called to ] an inquiry into the radio, telegraph. ! telephone and cable industries Gs ! part of its consideration of bill to ! set up federal communications l commission. The senate manufac- 1 turers committee also was called to | take up the resolution of Senator i Wheeler, democrat, Montana. pro- 1 posing an investigation of working i conditions in the textile industry In i, North and South Carolina and Ten i 1essee, where strikes have been in 1 progress some time.
 To Consult Colleagues
 In addition to their personal stud | les of provisions in the tariff bill. 1 which was described as "com- promise" measure by Representative Ti.son of Connecticut. the repubh- can leader, many members Of the house are planning to get together
  states for consideration of proposals affecting the interests of their con- stituents.
 Plans to prevent a prolonged con- test over the bill in the house. how ever. will be considered by the re- publican membership at a confer ence to act on special rule to gov ern debate and the offering of amendments.
 Combating this move. Represen- tative Garner of Texas. the demo- cratic leader, and members of his party are urging the republicans who disagree with various provisions written into the bill not to gag" themselves by agreeing to rule which will prohibit free coAsidera tion of amendments when the bill is taken up on the floor.
