Administration supporters in Con-
gress said today they are prepared
to push President Roosevelt's legisla-
tive program to quick enactment at
either = special session or the regular
meeting in January.
Senator Thomas, Democrat, of
Utah. among others, indicated he
would advise Mr.. Roosevelt to call a
special session. The President said
yesterday at Hyde Park he would
reach q decision within a week.
Such a session would begin a new
attack on prime administration OBJ
jectives, among them crop control,
wage-hour and child labor laws, Gov
ernment reorganization and creation
OF regional planning boards 1t
would begin between November 8 and
November Is.
Senator Thomas, who is slated to
head the Senate Labor Committee,
said he would seek enactment Of wage
and. hour legislation in the form it
passed the Senate during the last
session. The bill, which would give
4 Labor Standards Board power to
establish minimum wages of not more
than 40 cents an hour and a maxi
mum work-week> of not less than 40
hours, was held up in the House by
the Rules Committee. Thomas said
he would oppose modification to pro-
vide for fiat standards for all
industry.
Crop Control Program Sought.
Senator Minton, Democrat, of In
diana urged Senate and House Agri-
culture Committees to get crop con-
troll legislation in shape for quick
action whether Congress reconvenes
in November or January. A special
session, he added, would be worse
than none" unless definite program
was ready.
Senate and House Agriculture Com
mittees, however, were at work on a
program that might delay submis-
sion of new farm legislation until well
past mid-November.
A Senate subcommittee is holding
hearings in the West and another
group will begin tour OF the South

Pepe-McGin Proposal.
Members Of the Senate Committee
expect to use as a nucleus for their
farm bill the Pope-McGill proposal
GRATED a few months ago by farm
organizations and the Agriculture De-
partment.
1t would combine crop control sys-
tem similar to that of the A. A. A.
With an "ever normal granary" pro-
gram whereby surplus crops would be
stored up for use in lean years. Farm

Some Senators and Representatives
said privately they saw no need of
