The majority of House mem- bers are out of town over the Fourth, many of them studying’ up the permanent tariff bill, so as to be prepared to contepd for the best interests of their thome dis- tricts when the bill comes up for consideration this week. The House will not meet until ‘Wednesday, when House Leader Mondell expects that the confer- ence report on the naval appro- priation bill will be disposed of. ‘Wednesday, also, it is intended to dispose of several bills from the committee on sagriculture. The permanent tariff bill will probably be taken up Thursday and will occupy the rest of the week. Thursday the House District committee expects to take a vote on legislation to relieve the street rallway situation in the District. The Keller bill for municipal own- ership of the public utilitie which was reported favorably from the special subcommittee, will meet with strong opposition in the full committee. There is a Strong sentiment in favor of a separate public utilities commis sion, distinct from the adminie- trative board for the District. 5 A special rule was ordered by the rules committee Thursday to glve privileged status to the Nolan bill increasing the per- sonnel and salaries in the patent office to meet the demands of as- soclations of manufacturers. It is hoped that time can be found Wednesday to get a vote on this bill in the House, where it has been favorably acted upon twice before. By a vote of 263 to 69, the House adopted, Thursday, the com- promise agreement on the resolu- tion terminating war with Ger- many and Austria-Hungary.

The senators on both sides of the chamber are doing their best to Armn’ for a series of brief recesses for the next month or six weeks, with an understanding that important legislation is not to be considered during that period.

It is belleved this arrangement will not Interfere with the plans for the recesses.
