PRESIDENT INSISTS UPON BILLS
BEING PASSED NT THIS SESSION
Washington, June 20—The
President issued a statement
that he will insist upon the anti
trust program going through
this session of Congress. Signs
of prosperity were being shown
on every hand and that the ad
ministration was a friend of
✓
business also formed a part
of his statement. Senators are
eager rush the laws as they
all desire to end the session
and get away to cooler climes.
With the Presient insisting
upon the enactment of the full
program of antitrust legisation
at the present session, and the
fall campaigns calling lustily
lor active work, Democrat
leader^, in the Senate yesterday
began preparations to put
through the trust legislation
9
and get away from July if pos
sible.
Failure of many senatorial
prophets to guess within a
week or two actual date of
the passage of the tolls repeal
bill was not forgotten in yes
' terday’s calculations, but lead
jers do not expect the effort to
put through the trust bills to
arouse such a prolonged de
bate as accompanied the re
peal bill. So far as work in
the Senate Committees handl
ing antitrust measures is con
cerned, there has been some
spirit of colaboration between
the Democrats and Republi
cans. If this spirit is shown on
the floor, adjournment at the
end of six weeks is not thought
by many to be impossible.
MAY GET ROUGH
TREATMENT i
—
Butte, June 20—President
Moyer of the Western Feder
ation of Miners wired yesterday
that he would return here to
resume his position as head of
the organization As the min
ers are so incensed at his
former action- it is freely pre
dicted that if he does he will
encounter pretty rough treat
ment at the hands of the
miners.
