Differences between democratic and republican leaders over the legislative situation, echoes from which have been heard daily since President Wilson made known his determination not to call an extra session of the new congress-until his return from France, may be forced to an issue tomorrow in the senate with the calling up of the "victory loan" bill. Democratic, senators have told the president in their efforts to force an extra session that republicans would undertake to defeat this measure, which pro-ides the means of financing the government during the remainder of this fiscal year. This information did not change the president's determination and tonight the democratic leaders decided to call up the bill tomorrow so that they misrht determine with reasonable certainty just what were the prospects for rush ing necessary legislation through be fore adjournment next Tuesday. Republicans to Decide Conme. It was said tonight that the republic an leaders' course would await further conferences early tomorrow and for ne gotiations with the democrats and the sounding of republican senators' senti ment. Democratic leaders said notice had been given that the loan bill would be held exclusively and continuously be fore the senate until disposed of, by unbroken sessions, day and night, if necessary until adjournment. Its im portance to the nation's finances, they said, should give it precedence over all appropriation or other measures. Whether the desire for an immediate early session should be sacrificed to the questionable expediency of defeat ing the loan measure was vigorously debated among the republican sena tors, several .of whom were said to have disapproved opposition to the bill. Democratic leaders tonight expressed belief that the republicans would not defeat the bill by a filibuster, but they admitted that several important ap propriation bills would undoubtedly fail. Wheat Guarantee to Come Up. Although much time was spent in the senate today in discussion of the league of nations and other subjects, considerable progress was made there and in the house on congested legisla tion.

Other progress included: Formal presentation of the "victory loan" bill to the senate, adoption by the house of the conference report on the long-delayed waterpower develop ment bill, conference agreement on hospital construction and appropria tions and negotiations, are ea.pected to attain prompt attention. Many minor bills were passed today by the senate in what members ex pected to be a final reading of the calendar for unobjected measures. Ob jection to consideration of many meas ures was regarded as insuring their failure for the present session. Sutfracr to Be Considered. Chairman Jones of the senate woman suffrage committee announced late to day that equal franchise advocates would make a final effort for action on a compromise constitutional amend ment designed "to meet objections of southern senators who opposed the Susan B. Anthony draft, recently de feated. The committee will meet to morrow to report out the resolution. Discussion of the legislative situa tion and the Question of an extra ses sion cropped out in tonight's senate debate.
