Little Bills Will Have Their Inning
Washington reflects a slow week in Congress with no major measures aimed for quick action. The anti oleomargarine bill and the gold and silver exchangeability bill appear on the calendar but lack fixed times. War revenue tax reductions advance with hearings on beer and tea, while Cuban reciprocity faces delay as Republicans plan limited action. Senate focus centers on the Philippine tariff bill under Lodge, with anticipated debates and possible amendments, plus possible movement on a commerce department bill later in the week.
