Republican congressman
May Miss National
Convention.
BY RUTH FINNEY
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April 81.
With just seven weeks left
before the Republican Ma
tional Convention, Republican
congressman are not at all
certain they will be able to
attend.
1t has taken Congress three and
a half months to enact four ma ior
bills, and the chances of enactir
two more in the next seven weeks
seem slim. The Administration will
insist on tax and relief legislation
before adjournment.
In the last 10 presidential cleo
ton years, Congress has remained
in session through the conventions
three times. Each time, Democrats
were in control of one or both
houses.
Four Major Bills Enacted
In 1912. the session lasted until
late in August; in 1916, until Sep
TENDER. In 1882, Congress ad-
journed in mid-July. Sessions con-
tinued while the conventions were
meeting but during the Democratic
convention, particularly, it was diff
flcult to get a quorum and little
business was transacted 1t was a
relief bill that prolonged the ses-
sion that year, too,
Congress meets a month later
now. incidentally. as a result of the
lame duck amendment to the Con-
Stitution.
The four major bills enacted so
far are the bonus act, repeal of the
cotton, tobacco and potato control
acts, extension of the neutrality res
olution, and the soil conservation
act.
Bills on rural electrification and
lobby registration are in conference
Three appropriation bills have been
enacted and four others are in con-
ference
Other Measures Pending
Ten other measures of consider
able Importance are in various
stages of progress and may or may
not be acted on before adjournment.
One is the ship subsidy bill, and
another would extend the office of
transportation co-ordinator. Flood
control and housing measures are
pending, and SO are bills creating a

G. O.P. FARLEY DRAWS NEAR:
LABOR EXPECTING GENEROUS
TREATMENT BY DEMOCRATS
Shorter Week, Minimum
Pay Planks Are Sought
by Union Chief.
BY HERBERT LITTLE
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April 81.
- A Democratic platform
plank embodying pledges for
a shorter work-week, mini
mum wages, abolition of child
labor, and the "fair trade
practice" provisions recently
upheld by the Supreme Court
in the Sugar Institute case,
was predicted by Democratic
labor men today.
The party's convention at Phil
adelphia in June will go perhaps
even further than the 1882 labor
plank, it was predicted, partly be-
cause of the recent strong labor
sentiment for Roosevelt, led by
John l.. Lewis, and partly because
of the Presidents revived program
TO reduce unemployment, as out
lined at Baltimore last week.
The 1882 promise of efforts to-
ward a shorter work week was car
ried out to a considerable extent by
NRA, but since the Supreme Court
spoke last May, average hours a
week in industry have increased by
three to nearly AZ.
The Supreme Courts imminent
ruling on the Guffey Coal Act, now
expected Monday, and it's impending
decision on the New York minimum
wage law, probably will have vital
effect on this convention and cam
paign issue.
Fear for Guffey Act
New Dealers are fearful that the
Guffey Act decision will chop down
the Federal governments asserted
power to act nationally on hours
and wages.
A decision against the minimum
wage law would similarly prune the
power of the states. A similar law
was voided, 5-3, by the court in 1923,
and the four conservative justices
now on the high bench all voted in
the majority then.
A possible combination of state
and Federal action to shorten hours
and provide work for some of the
nations 10 million or more unem-
ployed may be resorted to by the
Democrats, since the Supreme Court
has upheld Tin an oregon case in
1919 the limitation of hours of
labor by the state.
Child Labor Verdict Recalled
In carrying out the Presidents
renewed demand to save the avail
able jobs for those over 10 the lib
eral minority of the Supreme Court
is his only support.
The Court in 5-4 decision in 1915
kicked out a Federal law forbidding
child labor, and only change in the
complexion of the court is likely to
improve the chances of any such
law.
The Presidents top-limit of IS
years for jobs is carried out in effect
now by the practices of many en-
ployers, and the old-age insurance
feature of the Social Security Act
when operative will make the proc
ess e9s!er.

 A bill to give Great Britain modified and more liberal divorce law has been introduced in Parliament IL may not get very far although who could leave out of account the divorce at Ipswich?
 English divorce laws to call them English be- cause they of longer root than the British have been quite naturally made of the same cloth from which the marriage laws cut, and they were brutal
 Henry VIII had much trouble with one divorce that he preferred thereafter for his own peace of mind and domestic tranquility to cut their heads off But then he was not only king, but, being king a man, and the English thought it was mans world
 Elizabeth avoided divorce troubles by not marry ing them She as a queen and although woman would have had less trouble than any of her country women even if titled, in getting rid of male brute or pest around the house. That she also could use the ax she proved on Essex A divorce might have been less easy.
 Treason is a charge the married person would find difficult these days in sustaining against a spouse and it would be condemned a method even if it had no more natural depraviy than subjecting person to the fiction that he had beaten the tar waddng out of woman in order to satisfy the laws preciseness Even such fictitious act of cruelty would not do in Great Britain. The culprit even now must have been found twice having breakfast in bed.
 The English idea that it's mans world and that la woman once says yes she may never again say no has been modified, but not in all respects. Laws sometimes flow into sedimented pools and stagnate. The British divorce law leads to more immoralities than moraites The ideal of family life is not served when the man and have found their mar riage offendS it.

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1886


 Threatening stars dominate in the planetary government for this day, according to astrology. Under this sway there may be depresS- ing feeling that should be over come by church-going or outdoor recreation.
 Foreign astrologers who make predictions for the coming year warn of war in 1888 and discern nu- merous portents in the horoscopes of rulers of European countries, but there are also omens of conflict to start sooner.
 United work for peace is enjoin- ed upon all nations. The seers emphasize the responsibility of the United States in maintaing friend ly world relations.
 This is a threatening sway for labor and new complications appear to be preSaged for the new year. All the signs forecast growth of power among union organizations.
 Uranus is in an aspect read as indicating widespread m u d d c d thinking that enables the teaching of class hatred. Open minds should receive wide instruction in basic economic laws, astrologers declare.
 Churches should benefit greatly thoro txrll1 hn erous contributions to philanthro- pic associations and to charities.
 Religious interest will be quick ened and the clergy well support ed this winter. The quest for spir- itual guidance will be more gen. eral than in the past few years.
 Wearing of new clothing should be lucky today. The stars smile upon those who hold personal ap- pearance important as an indica- tion of personality.
 Persons whose birthday it is have the augury of year of unusual ex- perience which may be attended by perplexing situations. Lonely plac- es should be avoided
 Children born on this day prob ably will be highstrung and tal- ented. Subjects of this sign often have extraordinary good luck all through their lives.
