Washington, D. C.—With only a
little more than .three weeks left of
this session of congress, the fste of
many important executive measures is
hanging in the balance.
Leaders are prepared to bond every
effort to complete lection on the Mus­
cle Shoals leasinggluil, the postal pay
and rate increase measure, a co-opera­
tive marketing bill, the McFadden
banking bill, the measure for pur­
chase of the Cape Cod canal and the
>150,000,060 good roads bill. •
If the»«* can be put through, to­
gether with the remaining appropria­
tion bills, the republican leaders will
be well satisfied with the accomplish­
ments of the short session. But they
sre not at all cartain that this pro­
gram can be carried out.
In the realm of foreign affairs the
senate has abandoned all hope of ac­
tion on the world court questions, and
there is doubt that awote can be had
on the Isle of Pines treaty. The Ger­
man commercial convention may be
ratified with reservations broader
than those suggested by the state de­
partment.
The house and senate agricultural
committees are moving so slowly that
even the friends of farm aid legisla­

program recommended by the presi­
dent’s agricultural commission can be
translated Into law before March 4.

The main points of the note are:
First, that Great Britain declines
to agree that France’s payments
should be dependent upon Germany’s

Second, that with a view to facil­

Third, that Great Britain will de­
