GARNER WARNS
HOUSE TO CURB
WORKING SPEED
Two Representatives Dead
in Exceptionally Busy
CONGRESS Season.
BY THOMAS l.. STOKES
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Speaker
Garner instructed his leaders today
to slacken the tempo of the house
OF Representatives, which is being
blamed for two deaths and the i'll
ness Of several other members.
When Representative Crisp
Dem., Ca warned his colleagues
not to kill yourselves with over
work he voiced a gradually grow
ing feeling inspired by long ses-
sions IN the house, lengthy commit
tee meetings, and accentuation of
routine duties, such as handling
appointments and answering volu-
one of the busiest in many years.
The depression largely is respon-
sible for the high pitch at which
the house has worked this session,
one of the busiest in many years.
Speed has been the WatchWord in
getting out bills to dispel it's effects.
Sixteen or seventeen committees get
to work early every morning. The
house itself has been sitting every
day-and late.
Because Of the Importance Of the
legislation being considered on the
floor, and becase Of the narrow mar
gin which separates the two parties,
q very close attendance has been
necessary.
More members are about the
house floor constantly than at any
time since the war. Ordinarily only
a handful directly interested in
handling a bill are present, the full
membership coming in only for i'm
portant votes.
This means the member must take
extra time to attend to routine du-
ties, such as taking care of the de-
mands of constituents. Some of
them have been forced to give their
nights to such problems.
Congressman have lots of work to
do, contrary to an opinion in many
quarters. They do more than talk,
though this naturally is the most
widely advertised Of their activities.
They resent criticism of this char
acter
The house meets daily at noon,
but that is not the hour for con-
gressmen to go to work. They have
their committee meetings and their
office tasks before that. Often they
must visit the government depart
ments downtown.
