SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 28, 1920. CONGRESS ASKED 'i Fl 1 PROBLEMS Emergency Legislation May Be Necessary to 'Solve Existing Financial and Business Worry. By J. Bart Campbell Washington, Nov. 27. (L N. S.) Increasing demands for early rellet 3rom existing financial, business and agricultural conditions are piling up the desks of the Republican leaders f congress, they stated today. 1 Despite repeated declarations that the approaching winter session will be de voted aUnoet exclusively to appropria tion measures, it was admitted con gress may be forced to pass emer gency legislation to meet the acute do mestic jfroblems pressing for immediate solution. ' ' .. The ' situation Is one that is giving the Republican leaders grave concern, they said, but until the return of 1'reflident-elect Harding from Panama they will continue to "mark time." They want to consult him before : mapping out a complete program for the coming session, it was explained. IIABDISO TO COSFEB It is expected, Mr. Harding will con fer with them here on or about the day congress reconvenes, December 8. He is due to arrive at Newport News, Va., December 4. It is said a private dinner given . in his honor at Washing tori some night soon thereafter may be the. occasion for a "powwow" between the president-elect and others high in the councils of the Republican party. Before his departure on his present Journey Mr;' Harding invited several influential Republican senators to meet - him at : dinner after his return. He 'suggested Washington as the best place for the dinner, and ha la- expected to spend at least day and a night here before returning to Marlon. IMMEDIATE ACTIGX PES1BED By the time Mr. Harding is due here, and congress is ready to get down to business, Washington will be filling with representatives of those financial, busi ness and agricultural interests which ' are seeking immediate action on tax and other legislation. These . interests do not desire to wait until the new con gress is called in extra session after Mr. Harding's Inauguration. . They want - congrees to act at once to afford the re lief they declare they require from the slump in the country's markets and the Importation of Qknadlan wheat, .Aus tralian and Argentina wool and Other foreign products being dumped on this country. 7 , MAT ASK WltSOJT - Still others would have President Wil son invoke his war powers and .employ some agency like the war trade board to place an embargo on those imports with which American producers say they are unable to compete. They also favor a revival of the war finance corporation as another means of meeting the exist ing situation. President Wilson's message to con gress Is being awaited with undisguised interest. Developments or far reaching ir.port before the Christmas . holidays are anticipated' by those who have been observing the trend of domestic affairs throughout the country. - Portland-Roseburg Highway Is Good Despite Heav Roseburg, Nov. 27.
