NEWS FROM OUR
NATIONAL CAPITAL
Measures of Great Importance
Confront Congress on
Reassembling.
Washington. A heavy calendar ot
business confronted the members of
congress when they reassembled Mon
day after the Christmas recess.
Among the most important items are
the Alaska railroad hill, the proposed
constitutional amendment granting
the right of suffrage to women, the
La Follette seamen's bill, the Adam
son bill providing for the suspension
for two years of that provision lu the
Pnnama canal net which will give to
American coastwise vessels free tolls,
and the proposed amendments to the
Sherman anti-trust law. On the last
named subject it is expected that
President Wilson will send In a spe
cial message at an early date.
The president reached Washington
Tuesday with a draft of his message
to congress upon trust legislation.
This will be goue over at conferences
between the president and anti trust
bill frnmers of house and senate be
fore it is submitted to congress.
Rural credits legislation will also
receive attention when the president
returns. The bill takes the form ot
a measure creating a system of coun
try banks from which farmers and
stockralsers can obtain credit on spe
cial terms of security and time ot ma
turity; and the creation of credit as
sociations by which farming commun
ities can finance their own operations.
Hope For June Adjournment
Scores ot other legislative subjects
are pressing for consideration In both
houses and congressional leaders pre
dict that the present session will be
crowded with work until well into the
summer. Efforts are to be made to
dispose of the appropriation bills and
to push the more Important work of
ofher character so it may be complet
ed by Juno.
This will be done so democratic
members of congress can got out Into
their own states to join In the cam
paign for the fall congressional elec
tions. President Wilson has impressed on
party leaders his belief that the en
actment Into law of legislation prom
ised by the democratlo platform
should be accomplished as early as
possible, In order that senators and
representatives may take an active
part In the fall campaign, when con
trol of congress will again be at stake.
The Alaskan railroad measure has
first place In both houses and will
come up at once for consideration. It
Is believed congress will agree to the
financing of government roads to de
velop the resources of Alaska and to
bring Us coal and minerals Into com
merce. Anti-Trust Laws Drafted.
A tentative draft of anti-trust legis
lation has been prepared by majority
members of the house committee on
the judiciary for action by the full
committee, subject to a conference
with President Wilson.
The bills drafted cover these three !
main points:
First, Interlocking directorates. Sec
ond, trade relations and prices. Third,
Injunction proceedings and damage
suits by Individuals.
It was decided that it would be bet
ter to draft several bills instead of In
corporating all the anti-trust proposi
tions in an omnibus measure, supple
mentary to the Sherman act An at
tempt to define combinations and con
spiracies In restraint of trade as far
as possible has been made in the bills
already prepared. The bill to inhibit
interlocking directorates is regarded
by the committee members as the
most important of the three. It deals
not only with banks and trust com
panies, but applies to every industrial
corporation engaged In interstate
trade.
New Haven Agrees On Reorganization
The department of justice has an
nounced a preliminary agreement, de
signed to effect a reorganization of
the New Haven railroad and to pre
vent a suit for its dissolution under
the Sherman law.
In compliance with department de
mands, the New Haven will dispose
of Its holdings In the Boston & Maine
railroad, cancel Its Joint aggreement
controlling the Boston & Albany and
give up its trolley lines and several of
Its steamship lines.
The dissolution was voluntary, al
though it followed threats that the de
partment of Justice would Institute
suits if the railroad did not come to
terms.
Save Suet, Say Experts.
American housewives waste valua
ble food and Increase the cost of liv
ing when they throw away suet or use
it for soap-making, says the depart
ment of Agriculture in a statement.
Suet, the experts contend, contains
the same food value as lard, and Is a
satisfactory substitute for frying pur
poses and shortening. Cookbooks
have misled the housewives, they say.
