DISHES OUT

WASHINGTON. March 10. ~
Despite hints at the capitol Satur-
DAY that the White House had cut
a switch for rebellious democrats,
signs we're plentiful on Capitol Hill
that congress would continue TO
give administration proposals criti-
cal and often prolonged scrutiny.
Praise for the comparatively slow
procedure by the house and senate
was voiced Saturday by the Cham
ceber OF Commerce Of the United
States.
Many observers held that this
session, for the first time since Mr.
Roosevelt took office. congress had
begun TO take its customary hand
In shaping legislation
The ventured, too, the opinion
that any pressure Mr.. Roosevelt
brought would be in behalf Of speci-
fic measures and that he had ac-
quiesced 10 the new order.
Already there has been discussion
among some democratic leaders
about ACCESSIBILITY Of side-tracking
administration legislation not on the
HlQIH lAcb. 81 AGA NAAIA -
accelerate consideration Of admin
istration proposals have been futile
except on non-controversial bills.
And this in the face Of White
House influence and intimations
that President Roosevelt might ap-
peal to the country by radio 10 help
him whip congress into line.
The word from those who have
talked to the president IS that he
shows no particular concern. While
neither Of his prime propoSals-work
relief and social security-haS adj
vanced far he still may get what he
wants in the end.
But further delay on the $4.600.-
900. 900 work relief bill, which Is TO
be taken up in the senate again on
Monday, seemed likely. And demo-
cratic leaders privately concede the
vote will be close ON the McCarran
prevailing wage amendment.
