WASHINGTON, 1). t.. LETTER.
Activity in Congress this Week has
been largely confined to the Senate,
so far as the meeting of the two
Houses is concerned. The promised
tariff bill is not yet reported from the
House Committee, although it is ex
pected on Monday. The House had
planned to consider, this week, several
bills such as the oleo or butter sub
stitute bill and others, but the leaders
feared that their passage now would
complicate an already complicated sit
uation in the Senate, so those matters
were postponed.
The Senate has been actively con
sidering the farm bill, with the Ex
port Debenture plan the bone of con
tention. It is expected that that will
be acted upon and probaby the bill
passed by the Senate during the com
ing week.
Th«** House has not organized for
the passage of general legislation. I
feel that it should have, so that the
Committee could give more time to
study of proposed laws than they are
ordinarily able to give during the regu
lar sessions. The following summary,
quoted from the Washington Star,
may be of interest, bearing on the
volume of work that is done in a ses
sion of Congress:
“Most of the people throughout the
country do not seem to realize as yet
how different this session of Congress
is from the usual session. This ex
traordinary session is called for the
purpose of passing just two bills—
farm relief and tariff. Compared with
that goal of two laws, the last (Sev
entieth Congress put 1722 laws on the
statute books, the preceding (Sixty
ninth) Congress passed 1423, and the
Congress before that 996. In the pres
ent session only four committees are
organized and only two of them have
bills referred to them, whereas the
usual session has all committees at
work. For example, in the Seventieth
Congress there were 17,334 bills in
troduced, 435 joint resolutions, 351
simple, resolutions and 60 House con
current resolutions, making a total of
18,18b bills and resolutions considered
by committees. During the Seventieth
Congress the House passed 1584 House
bills an resolutions and 736 Senate
bills and resolutions. The House pass
eel 559 House bills, 20 joint resolutions
and 19 Senate bills and joint resolu
