WASHINGTON—With the con-
ening of the 67th congress in
special session at noon Monday
precedent at least in Ameri
can history is broken, while It re
mained to be determined on the
senate floor whether the day would
see another smashec.
The extra session called by Presi
dent Harding primar.ly to consid
er the administration ship subsidy
bill, with the regular session to fol
low immediately arter, insures a
recosd total of four sessions for
this Congress, including the special
session called in April 1921, no
Congress before ever having had
made more than tnree, and it may-
have the further Gistinction of in
cluding the first woman member to
be seated in the United States
senate.
