Early Session May Be Limited

W 11 Kill I K \ SKSSION Will. Bi; summoni:i> stiul hemains I'KESIDKN'T'S SECRET

WASHINGTON. Sept. 8 (UP) — President Roosevelt was represented today as hoping to limit Congress to the single subject of war emergency if he decides to recall legislators to Washington before the regular session beginning next January. Neutrality act revision and legislation to provide adequate war risk insurance for American flag ships would be sure of special session attention. W'hether a session will be sumnr nod, however, remains Mr. Roosevelt's secret. The White House said he had not decided. He told his press conferences the subject had not yet l>eon leached in development of administration war policy. But Stephen A. Early, white hone secretary, said yesterday that the president had had , intermittent conversations with leg- ! islative leaders during the past week on the subject of an early call. One white house intimate expres- I sed the opinion today that new deal congressional reaction was favorable to an early special session. Senate Republican leader Charles L. McNary icvealed at his Salem, Ore., home ••osterday that Mr. Roosevelt had informed him the special session would probably be called to meet Sept. 18, if it were called at all. House majority leader Sam Rayburn, at his home in Texarkana, Tex., said the president had not discussed a special session call with him but that he expected Congress to convene "soon.”

m. recognition will be made of the anniversary of the Goulding Memorial organ given by Mrs. E. B. Evans Jack Rinker will play a violin solo, “Meditation" by Bach-Goimod. The theme of the sermon will be: “The' Enthusiasm of God.” The meeting of the Woman’s Cir-1 cle next week has been moved forward to Monday at 2:30 p. m. at the I home of Mrs. Lulu Welch, 411 west

Jacob street. »

The Men's Service Club will have its first meeting of the fall at Robe Ann Park Monday at 6:30 p. m. Each man is asked to bring steak or weiners, buns, a dish of food, and
