Democrat Chiefs
in Congress Plan
Strong Program
Hope to Put Through Legislation
to Better Business Condi
tions Call Parleys
Washington, D. C, Dec. 4. The
collective wisdom of senate and
house democratic leaders will be mar
shalled in a series of conferences
called to devise a strong legislative
program for the coming congress.
By a co-ordinated party policy
they hope to be able to forte through
both closely divided branches ('(in
structive legislation that will im
prove business conditions. In this
way they hope also to indicate to
the people what legislation they may
expect if democrats take over the
government in next year's elections.
A .senate committee headed by
Robinson (Ark.), democratic leader,
and including Senators Walsh
(Mont.) and Harrison (Miss.), will
meet with a house democratic group
to formulate the program. A number
of other senators will be. selected by
Robinson.
-
Garner to Join.
Representative Garner, who prob
ably will be speaker; Representative
Rainey of Illinois, unopposed candi
date in his party for floor leader;
McDuffle (Ala.); Collier (Miss.);
Rayburn (Tex.); Byrns (Tenn.), and
Cullen (N. Y.), are probable mem
bers of the house committee.
Already a number of conferences
have been held between senate and
house democratic leaders on revenue
raising legislation, tariff. Muscle
Shoals, prohibition, unemployment
relief, and the naval situation. Har
rison, ranking democrat on the sen
ate finance committee, predicts tariff
revision will be included in the pro
gram. These plans were disclosed on the
eve of the house democratic caucus.
Tomorrow Garner will be nominated
speaker, and Rainey, floor leader al
most unanimously.
Rules Changes Likely.
With many democrats favoring
a liberalization of the rules to per
mit a vota on prohibiten at the com
ing session, It appeared certain rule
changes would be adopted.
The 23 members of the New York
delegation went on record today fav
oring, an . early vote on prohibition
and a revision of the rules to permit
it. Representative Cullen, chair
man, said the Tammanyites favor
the Snell rule adopted by the repub
lican, conference to extract a bill
from a committee for a direct vote
on petition of 145 members.
A proposal to create a steering
committee is to be made by Represen
tative Byrns and supported by Crisp
(Ga.) and Ayres (Kans.).
However, the New York delega
tion announced it was opposed to a
change in the present organization
and this forecast defeat for such a
move. World-Herald.

RAIL RATES ARE ARGUED
Washington The distress or agri
culture and the distress of the rail
roads were pittt d against each other
in the supreme court. The Santa Fe

ducing grain rates. The rates were
made by the interstate commerce
comce commission, effective Aug. 1,
and the ba is was a congressional res
olution which directed the lowest
lawful rates to relieve the plight of
agriculture.
Frederick If. Wood, counsel for the
roads, said his clients were not do
iiiK so well themselves and that the
orders cutting rutes on grain and
griiin products would cut already re
duced revenue by about $20,000,000.
