While District matters before committees will recelve considera- tion during the week, there will be little opportunity for anything on the floor of the Senate, due to the ‘agreement to consider the Ford-Newberry contest exclusive- 1y until a vote is taken. Senator Truman H. Newberry is to speak from the floor of the Sen- ate tomorrow in his own behalf, and it is expected that there will be & ltvely debate, owing to the annoMinced desire of the democrats ‘to interrogate him on certain per- tident points in connection with vhe contest. After ‘12 o'clock to- morrow debate will be limited to one hour for each speaker. The joint congressional commit- tee on schools will meet tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock to hear R. 3. Condon, superintendent of schools of Cincinnati, Ohlo, the second of the several educators from vari- ous parts the country who have been called to tell the committee what is needed to make the local school system a model one. The committee also plans to map out a plan of proaedure for bringing the Investigation to an early con- clusion. Personal inspection of the school buildings will be re- sumed the latter part of the week, according to present plans. Hearings on the several meas® ures giving suffrage and represen- tation in Congress to the District of Columbia will be - resumed Thursday morning at 10 o'clock before the Senate District commit- tee. Senator Ball of Delaware, chairman of the committee, pro- poses that this shall be the final hearing on the measures. The morning sesslon will be given cver to those in favor of suffrage in SR any form and the afternoon ses- sion will be available for those 1 i i ] opposed to suffrage. ! The Senate, District committee will hold its regular meeting for the consideration of measures on the Senate calendar Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. It is ex- pected that the bill extending the teachers’ retirement act to about twenty-eight school teachers who left the service just prior to the - enactment of the law will be con- sidered, with some minor meas- ures on the calendar. * The hearings on the Watson charges of illegal executions in the A. E. F. will be resumed Tues- day morning before the special Senate ‘committee. TUnder a unanimous consent agreement, the Senate is to take up on Wednesday the amendment to the interstate ~commerce act permitting the issuance of inter- changeable mileage books on rail- roads. | CANDIDATE FOR SENATE IN ACTIVE CAMPAIGN Hubert Stephens, Mississippi, Ex- Representative in Congress, Com- petes for Mr. Williams’ Seat.

Tomorrow is District day in the House. Strong effort is being made to get the marine insurance bill considered, but House Leader Mondell has persistently opposed allowing this to be called up. Tuesday will be given over to general debate on the anti-lynch- ing bill. It calendar Wednesday is dis- penséd with on Wednesday, an appropriation bill, probably the Post Office Department budget, will be taken up. The committee on public buildings and grounds has the call on Wednesday, and an additional vault in the United States- Treasury awaiting action. The House appropriations commit- tee refused to include an appro- priation for the proposed vault in the bill passed Friday. The bill to increase the person- nel and salaries in the patent of- fice may be called up Wednesday, as the committee on patents has the call following the committee on_public buildings and grounds. Thyreday the consideration of the appropriation bill will be re- sumed. The-principal business done dur- ing the past week by the House was passage of the first appro- priation bill -with the complete budget system in operation. This was the supply measure for all activities of the Treasury Depart- ment and went through in practi- cally the same form it came from the committee. Representative R. Walton Moore of Virginia was appointed a mem- ber of the foreign affairs commit- tee, succeeding the late Repre- sentative Hal D. Flood of Virginla. After a brief hearing a sub- committee of the District com- mittee, headed by Representative Zihlman of Maryland, unanimously declared itself in favor of the biil to equalize the pensions of veteran police and firemen up to the new, salary basis for these departments. House democrats through the week continued to filibuster on the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Passage of some form of adjust- ed compensation for former serv- jce men was promised at this ses- sion by House Leader Mondell, who also declared that the reap- portionment bill must be passed. —_— TALKS TO THIRTEEN CLUB Smith Discusses Memorial Near Belleau Wood.
