Coming congressional events are now casting their shadows before. For the next five weeks they will monopo- lize attention at both ends of Penn- sylvania avenue. The President steadily and studiously pursues the practice of “sawing wood.” He con- tinues to listen ravenously. Senators and representatives are gradually drifting back to Washington, either to remain for the impending session Or to put their offices in order in Preparation for it. The majority of them have not seen Calvin Coolidge before in- his capacity of President and make early pilgrimages to the ‘White House. Many of them are summoned for conference. To those who have been out among the people during the past summer and autumn Mr. Coolidge extends a | particularly cordial welcome. He Is Cross-examining them in great detail on the state of the nation's mind, as | they had occasion to observe it. | Expect “Middle-of-Road" Policy. Oue of the things the President is | hearing with persistence, especially Ivrflm middle-weste members of €ongress, is that the country is look- Ing to him for a middle gram. The v view Wa between the stand-pattism wild radical Except for regions ninated by La Foilette, Brookhart, agnus Johnson & Co. the popular demand is reported to Mr. Coolidge to be for policies that do not veer too much teward either conservatism radicalism.

But statesmen may be content to have shown their colors, for the {sake of presenting themsélves in vote-catching garb in 1924, and may make no serious attempts to enact {legislation. From many trusted counselors Presi- dent Coolidge has heard that the issue of issues stirring the minds of the American ‘people is the cost of living. They're interested, almost to the e {clusion of everything else, in what af- {fects “the pocket nerve.” That applies to everything from the soldiers’ bonus to taxation reform.

Eig’ thousand miles through the air with the same motors was the record of two De Haviland DH4B {Planes, piloted by Lieut. F. O. Rogers and Lieut. H. D. Palmers, Marine Corps aviators, who landed at the paval air station at Anacostia after 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Maj. Gen. Lejuene, commandant of the Marine Corps, waited at the fleld from 3 to 5 o'clock for the fiyers, who p.m., on. the last leg in their long flight, which had carried them from Haiti_to Washington, to St. Louis, to San Francisco and back to the Na- tional Capital. In the gathering darkness, after the commandant of the Marine Corps had left the station, the two big glllneu made a good landing on the eld. Engine trouble to an escorting plane had -delayed the two Marine flyers, who had gone to the assistance of the disabled machine. The aviators were accompanied by their mechanics, P. Tolusciak.

KENNEDY. The most important job in the next Congress, at least from a party or- ganization standpoin® is going beg- ging. | This seems to have been entirely overlooked, in spite of the fact that political dopesters have for months been -busy scheming different ways in which the conflicting factions in the next Congress may, or might, recon- agreement.

Acceptunce a Sacrifice. The chairmanship of this committee must -go not only to a veteran mem- committees and devote his time ex- clusively to_this party management | within the House. - All other problems and possible combinations with regard to reor- {ganization of the House are sur- [rounded by so much speculation, so {many clashing bloc interests, 8o many {personal politics, Intrigues’ and so many “ifs" that the sagaclous ones {on the inside of party politics view {this one job as of prime importance 1—just as the late Representative {Mann viewed it. s 1" One of the “ifs” which have recently | {been_vexing the political dopesters {is: “If" Representative Frederick H. ! Gillett, Speaker in the last Congress, is named as ambassador to®Rome as successor to Richard Washburn Child, { Representative Martin B. Madden of | Tllinols, now chairman of the appro- priations _committee, will Speaker; Representative John Q. Til- son of Connecticut may become party leader on the floor; Representative Daniel R. Anthony 'of Kansas will tee, etc. - ‘Would Hold to Gavel Speaker Gillett is in Europe, but, ias a matter of fact, as far as those within the closest circles of party council_know, Gillett plans to hold on as Speaker, and if he does there is no combination that can beat him. Those who know the party plans best, and this comprehends “adjust- ments” to meet opposition that can- not be overcome, are convincéd that this is nearer what will happen: Gillett continue as Speaker, Repre- sentative Nicholas Longworth of Ohio probably will be floor leader and Representative Madden continue as chairman of the@approprigtions committee. It now looks as if Rep- resentative William J. Graham of 1i- linois will not even be a candidate for floor-leader. Representative Til- son, while a very able man and pos- sibly a_futuge Speaker, cannot hope for either the floor leadership or speakership in the incoming Con- gress because it would mean much New England.” It has been thought among the knowing ones that Representative Madden would assume the duties of chairman of the committee-on com- | mittees, succeeding his veteran .col- {league, Mann.

Representative Theodore Burton of Ohlo, who has served eighteen years and was for a long time chairman of {the rivers and harbors committee | during the days when that was called a “pork barrel” bill, and who has been trotted out as a possible candi- idate for Speaker, is probably the best man in sight for chairman of the {committee on committees.
