END OF CONGRESS BY JUNE 10 SEEN Leaders Believe Calendar Can Be Cleared by That Date. Leaders in Congress, with the end ol & 16-month fight over the tarift sight next week, are looking for ld- Jjournment by June 10. This depends, however, on some pro- gram for disposition of the London naval limitations treaty by the Senate. A move is well underway in the Senate to defer the treaty until next session, but sponsors of the treaty believe they have the votes for ratification and may force the issue at this session. Special Senate Session. Should an immediate showdown be forced on the treaty House leaders point out that the Senate can have a special session of its own next month to dis- pose of the pact. Senator Watson of Indiana, the Republican leader, predict- ed an early adjournment. Only the Navy and second deficiency ¥roprhuon bills remain to be passed before all of the necessary business for this session wil be over. It is agreed that these can be put through before the June 10 date. Administration leaders long ago, gave up hope for disposing of any other of the Law Enforcement Commission rec- ommendations at this session except that relating to transfer of the prohi- bition enforcement service from the Treasury to the Justice Department. ge transfer bill is now at the White use, Prospect Still Doubtful. A final effort is being made to get & rivers and harbors bill to the Senate. House leaders have threatened to block an adjournment unless this legislation is enacted at this session, but the pros- mcl for the bill is still doubtful. d the contest over the rivers lnd harbors measure and over the Lon- don Nava] Treaty m out of hand, an adjournment before July is regarded as impossible.
