rescntntlves began pouring In hero
today for the reassembling of the
houso tomorrow congressional lead-
ers on both sldo of tho capital were
nnxlously considering plans for somo
method of checking promiscuous de-
bate on the grave industrial situ-
ation. Tho leaders are frankly fearful
them may be nn outburst of speech-
making from houso members which
would ti'iid to compllcato matters
for President Harding and Irrltato
an already bad eltuntlon.
Asldo from sporadic remarks dur-
ing the consideration of the pendln'g
tariff bill senators havo carefully
refrained from allusions to either
tho rnllroad or coal strike on tho
floor. Administration senators havo
been actuated by an expressed do-
slro not to embarrass tho president.
Democratic senators realizing the
situation was loaded with political
dynamite have declined to comment
publicly on It.
The houso will face a different sit-
uation. There Is little or nothlne
for the lower chamber to do until
me tariff bill Is out of the senate
