You busi ness men can get a. fairly good in sula Una now on what to aspect from congress In the a a a 1 o n which opena two weeks hence. Many t h n g a will not be set tled dellnltely until Pre sldent Roosevelt d 1 s -closes his hand. However, the the congressional 1 a a d e r a have been canvassing Income members and believe they know the general layout. At least they have made preliminary private reports to the White House, which might be summed up about aa fol lows: The adherence to the world court will be voted by the senate late In February after a decade of delay. The aoldler bonus will o whooping through both houses, probably by two-thlrda majorities, because eon servative republicans are secretly planning to vote for It. On a veto, the vote will be very close, with odds now favoring adoption of a loose velt unofficial compromise, cancelling Interest and confining cash payments to thou reasonably in need. The NRA reorganization will not meet much opposition because it will be confined to eliminating prlce flxlng and such generally approved corrections. There will be a total of Just about aa much spending aa this year, as curtailments proposed by the administration will not be generally acceptable to congress. There will be no new money legis lation, no new silver legislation. Con gress will go further than Mr. Roose velt In social reform legislation and probably will adopt a plan of old age pensions as well as unemployment insurance. (The Townsend crowd Is making a deep Impression already among congressmen here) There will be no general tax legislation and no further tariff legislation. The longest and biggest battle will be staged over the social reform leg islation. It will not be between pros and antls. because nearly everyone seems to favor the general principle. The important fighting will be be tween advocates of the principle, who have a dozen different plans, rang ing from more or less socialistic ones on up. The session undoubtedly will drag on, despite present new deal plans to curtail It and adjournment will come probably In May or June. COMPLETE TIEUP IS THREATENED IN SYMPATHY MOVE Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and Union Pacific Work ers May Join Interurbanj Walkout Is Indication BMit Nazis Deny Hitler Woun ed by LOS ANOEIjES, Dec. 18. (AP) D. A. Mackenzie of Cleveland, O., Ttce-president of the Brotherhood of Railroad trainmen, today salts he had been given the authority to declare a sympathy strike of union workers of the Southern Pacific. Santa Fe. and Union Pacific railroads In the event Los Angeles Interurban work ers decide to walk out. The authorization, tt was explain ed, did not designate the area that might be embraced by the sympathy strike. While officials of the unions had previously been quoted as say ing any sympathy strike probably would be confined, to the Los Ange les harbor area "at first," Mackenefe yesterday said It might extend to Portland, Ore., El Paso. Tex., and as far east as Salt Lake City, Utah. Union workers of the Interurban system operated by the Pacific Elec tric Co., linking Los Angeles with adjoining communities have threat ened to strike if demands" for wage Increase and readjusted working con ditions are not met. Officials of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and the Brother hood of Railroad Signalmen Repre senting the three transcontinental railroads have conferred here as to their attitude In the event of a strike by the Pacific Electric men. "I have been voted the authority to withdraw men from service if and when it Is necessary to take that action. If a strike Is called on the Pacific Electric," said Mackenzie after a conference fn a local hotel of 50 Brotherhood representatives. Mackenzie said the exact time ol the Pacific Electric strike would not be announced. In some quarters it was Intimated the strike wouid not materialize, but Mackenzie pre dicted the electric transportation system either would meet the de mand for 73 cents an hour for mo tormen and conductors or there would be a tie-up of all transportation in and out of Los Angeles. There has been a. more or less warm rumor In the highest financial circles that Mr. Roosevelt shortly would take the other nine cents out of the dollar. The government Is very cacey In talking on that subject.
