CONGRESS WILL BE ASSEMBLED
 ON JANUARY }
From Present Outlook the President Will Have
 Working Majority

 Washington, Dec 12.-UP)- Heated senate opposition to the St Lawrence waterway treaty indi- cated today that the Lakes-to-At lantic project may be sacrificed during. the congress converting January 3, to avoid 8 prolonged session.
 In that event MT Roosevelt would be expected by congressional leaders to summon special sen- ate session after congress adjourns to act on the treaty. The world court could be disposed of at the same time.
 We'll informed senators express the opinion that if the world court and the St Lawrence treaty were forced upon the senate for con- sideration this winter the entire session would be consumed in fili- bustering debate.
 The administration is known to be hopeful that congress can com plete its work and adjourn by May 1. Aside from the St Lawrence waterway treaty and an imminent dispute over currency imitation, 1t appears Mr Roosevelt will be able to hold majority of both houses this winter against the attack of dissatisfied minorities.
 Congressional opinion in divided on the outcome of the currency in- fiation drive which will begin at 12 noon, January 3, when Vice-Presi- dent Garner and Speaker Rainey gavel senate and house to order. The currency imitation and silver groups are becoming restive at MT Roosevelt's steadfast refusal to an- nounce publicly what he intends to do about money.
 Seven months have elapsed since congress voted to MT Roosevelt au- thority to expand the currency or to tnfiate it. He could approach the problem in various ways, in- cluding remonetization of silver, the issue of $3,000,000,0OO of treasury notes and the devaluation of the gold dollar.
 The latter has been undertaken by means of the open bid now maintained by the government in foreign gold markets. But com modity prices have not risen in proportion to the gradual dollar devaluatfon. MT Roosevelt's de- pendence upon the experiment of an open and constantly rising open gold bid is bringing observers to the conclusion that he has decided to let the imitation dispute go to a showdown in the house and senate.

planning the celebration of the three hundredth anniversary of the founding of Connecticut in 1885. This pamphlet was written by Dor othy Deming who also write "The Settlement of the Connecticut Towns brief history of the founding of towns other than those in Litchfield county.
 In 1742, the general assembly took somewhat belated action for the relief of the stricken communi- ties in the northwestern sector of the colony. Besides granting a moratorium in the payment of monies due to the colony and to other creditor towns, the legisla- ture provided for the relief o1 those in dire need at the expense of the colony. Had the assembly not permitted this extension of pay ment, the pamphlet states, there is good reason to believe that several townships would have received a serious, if not g. permanent setback. The towns most severelyq afflicted were sharon, Canaan, Goshen Cornwall and Salisbury.
 Settlement of Litchfield Coun- ty'' begins the story of the found ing of Connecticut's northwest corner in 1719 when Lieutenant Marsh of Hartford and Deacon John Buell. of Lebanon, together with fifty-seven others, petitioned the assembly for permission to settle 8 town, under committees appointed by the towns of Hart ford and Windsor, at a place call ed Bantam. Following the grant of this petition, the town of Litch' field was begun, but the question of ownership of the whole area oi the western lands" developed and the assembly forbade any fur ther settlement in these parts.

The budget fails to allow for much
necessary construction construction
which cannot long be delayed in the
face of the promised increase in both
private and official activities. The
necessity for restoring the old pay
scale of Government employees as soon
as living costs appreciably rise is dis
puted by no one. Moreover, there has
been practically no apartment houses
or dwellings built in the last three
years.
This combination of circumstances
would appear to make it plain that
even any temporary readjustment of
