Natural wish o. Congressman
in an election year is to wind up
national business as soon as pos
sible and return home to apply
themselves to the serious game
o. politics. This year. with all
forecasters holding that the war
fare waged by the major parties
will be unusually bitter and re-
lentless. Congressman have been
more than eager to say goodbye
to Capitol Hill. But a crowded
legislative calender long ago dis
sipated hopes for an April or
May adjournment. At this writ
ing, there is a reasonable expect
ancy that Congress will write
"finis" by ,iiid-June-but don't be
at all surprised if the session con-
tinues into the sweltering wealth
er. For little has been done in
the way OF iaw-making, and a
large number of important bills
will have to be either passed or
rejected before quiet falls over
our legislative halls.
Here is the status OF major
proposed legislation at present:
Corporation Surplus Tax: First
forecast was that this tax would
pass easily in just about the form
asked by the President. However,
there has been something OF a
shift Of sentiment, and num-
Der of leading Democratic rep
resentatives seem very cool to his
. ideas. Business is making felt
its belief that such a tax would
be ruinous. UpshOt is that the
House bill is likely to be relative
ly mild. though what the Senate

OF conjecture. One thing is GER
tain: There will be a great deal
o. debate and plenty OF hard feel
ings, before a bill goes to the
/ White House.
Chain Store Bills: A number
of these are pending in one branch
of Congress or the other, and
some have been entirely lost to
view. Bills dealing with ''price
discrimination" rebates, etc,
have met the opposition OF power
| full groups which believe them
basically unsound and unneces-
sary. and inimical to the consum-
ers' interest.
Thirtv-Hour Week: A bill to

! pending for several Congressional
sessions. has a certain amount of
support. But. unless all signs
are wrong. it has no chance to
