Senate's Calendar is Crowded As Congress Goes Back to Work Determined to Finish on Time
By L. C. MARTIN
(United Staff Press Correspondent,
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21—Congress got back to work today, with its leaders determined to push its major tasks to completion within sixty days.
While the House had little ahead of it requiring immediate action, the senate's calendar was crowded with business.
President Harding was expected to submit the treaty with Germany at once. At the same time, the finance committee was to report the $4,000,-60,000 tax bill. These two measures appeared likely to claim the center of the sententiary stage for some weeks to come.
In addition the senate has the conference report on the anti-bel air bill to dispose of. This is one of the most warmly controverted measures ever beaten by the senate, weakening by its opponents. They were ready to go aheadying up the bill indefinitely, they said, until their wishes were met. Senator Borah's bill, repealing talls on American debt, was helping the Pena伞 canal be unfinished business before the senate when it met. Borah's bill
Senator Borah's bill, repealing tolls on American oceanwise ships passing through the Panama canal was the unfinished business before the senate when it met. Borah's bill will be voted on October 10, but it is unlikely much of the interim will be spent in debate upon it.
The railroad relief bill, already passed by the houses, and the allied debt refunding bill were both on the senate's calendar. An effort will be made to get the railroad bill through but the debt refunding measure has been sidetracked for the present.
The interstate commerce committee is scheduled to resume its exhaustive investigation of the rail

road situation at an early date. In several weeks of investigation last spring, the committee heard the railroad's side of the questions involved. Labor is to be heard this fall.
The senate labor committee has the West Virginia mine war on its hands and will try to formulate some settlement after completing its investigation. Reports on the investigation of Truman H. Newberry's right to his seat as a U.S. Senator from Michigan have been filed with the senate once more before Deuter an effort will be made to bring up the question on the floor. This will precipitate a bitter partisan fight.
A sub-committee is to continue an investigation began in the summer of American intervention in Haiti and Santo Domingo. The committee may decide to visit the island republics. A naval sub-committee will resume its inquiry into the case of Capt. Chamberlain, who was plotted to war resulted in his dismission from the naval service. Chamberlain claims he was unjustly convicted and dismissed, and is seeking vindication.
The senate also has the tariff bill, but administration leaders did not know just where it would fit into the legislative program. That will be determined when the tax bill is out of the way.
The house, meanwhile, may consider the maternity bill which the senate had passed or may take up a soldier bonus bill. The allied loan refunding measure also may come in for some attention. A further deficiency appropriation also is expected before long.
