WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—(HE)— Congress stirred from its apathy today to speed up and make possible passage of important emergency debtor relief, farm aid and banking measures in the seven legislative days left before March 4.
The senate gave right of way tonight to the sweeping LaGuar-dia-McKeown-Hastings bankruptcy reform bill, passed by the house, which permits adjustment of individual and farm debts by federal court sanction. Senator James Couzens, Repn., Mich., will move to insert provisions granting similar relief to corporations and railroads. The senate committee struck this provision from the house measure.
‘ The house banking and currency
committee is expected to report favorably tomorrow the Couzens bill, passed swiftly yesterday by the senate, which would allow national banks to “freeze” their slow assets. This would permit national banks, which otherwise might be forced to close, to remain open and make partial payment on deposits. A depositor would be permitted to draw up to the percentage which the bank’s liquid assets bear to its slow assets.	/
Roosevelt May Get Tariff Authority
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—(U.E)— President-elect Roosevelt may be delegated authority to negotiate directly with other nations for tariff reductions, within certain limitations, under plans now being considered by Democratic congressional leaders.
The arrangement being studied does not involve treaties, which must be ratified by the senate, but proposed direct agreements. Such authority for a president in tariff adjustments, normally a legislative function, is not unprecedented as it has been exercised previously, notably by President Taft.

All Campus Male” and women may find the points they should look for in picking their man by reading the February issue of the W ampus which is placed on sale today. The “All Campus Male”— wrhat does he resemble? What are his charms and “it” qualities? These questions will be answered based upon the subjects, physique, dancing ability, smile, person-ality, eyes, and “what have you;” by several important women.
Special features of this Issue be: another story of “Bitter Annie,” that notorious and unusual character; an article by Arnold Eddy which describes his S.C. ice hockey team; and a new kind of Utopia, visualized by Juanita Mac. Intyre and Polly White in their “Co-ed Paradise.”
A photographic study by Max Plake forms the cover and numerous linoleum blocksprints decorate the interior of the publication.
Editor James Ashbaugh says that “Gooney Island,” the Wampus colony at the north pole, has four more inhabitants this month, and that those who find their names listed may consider that a great honor has been bestowed upon them.
Sale of the Wampus will be carried on by the Associated Women Students under th© direction of Margaret Laton, sales manager. Proceeds will go to the A.W.S. scholarship fund.
Miss Laton asks that the girls
who have been appointed to report promptly to their stations at th© alloted time. Those wrho do not know their stations may find a list in the Wampus office.
The prologue to “Death to 6000,” the campus mystery by the pre-Raphaelite brotherhood, will also be a feature of tomorrow’s issue.
Kappa Alpha Theta and Sigma Phi Epsilon have been selected by Bob Johnson for his fraternity expose series, Bob Boyle jvrites an article on the Trojan Knights, and Les Koritz gives an article, “The Bookworm Turns.”

Although in a favorable psychological position on the program— last—the Trojan players will be under a physical handicap spared the other contestants. Practically the entire cast have been at work for weeks on the preparation of “He Who Gets Slapped,” N. C.P. play to be given in Bovard auditorium tonight.
Last year Drama Shop offered the one-act version of “The Last Mile,” with Howard Miller in the leading role, and annexed three of four possible prizes—second place in the contest, best male performance, and best individual performance (Miller). There were no women in the cast.
The actors in the Dunsany mystery are likewise all male. Nor-
man Wright, whc^ has starred in numerous campus productions, will be seen in the leading role of “Th© Toff,” brains of the gang of seamen who steal the rub’ that forms the eye of an Ind’an idol.
George Ordansky, who will portray the title role in “He Who Gets Slapped” tonight; Jack Swarthout, another well-known camus actor; and Willard Jacobson, whose work in last year’s junior play won critical commendation, take the roles of sailors.
All those named, together with Will Brannan and Wallace Fraser, wrho will appear as Indian priests, will be seen tonight in the N.C.P. production. Leo Mattis and Erlin Bartlett will also portray priests in “A Night At An Inn.”
The judges in the county tournament are Lucille Webester Gleason, Phidelah Rice of the Leland Powers school, and Emma Dunn, all prominent in professional dramatics.
The same cast presented “A Night At An Inn,” with Jack Swarthout directing, at last month’s Drama Shop presentation of one-act piays.

N.C.P. drama to be given in Bovard auditorium will reach new heights in his
performance tonight.
Norman Wright in the role of Count Mancini portrays a character of inhuman cruelty, a difficult part which, MacDonald states, he enacts realistically. Jack Swarthout as Papa Briquet, the circus manager, gives a convincing characterization of a > man overwrought with his burdens. Bill Hoppe plays the role of Baron Regnard, one of the pawns in the stroke of fat© which descends on the circus world.
