In what had been termed a honey moon between the legislative and executive branches. Barkley found that Congress approved important foreign affairs measures, such as the international monetary agreement, reciprocal trade revisions and the United Nations charter. But in the first 100 days of the new presidential regime it didn't do much about putting into effect some of the domestic suggestions Mr. Tru man made. Barkley listed these along with unacted upon proposals made by the late President Roose velt in a program he plans to tell fl'e Senate must be reconsidered when members return in October from a vacation starting tomorrow. Barkley could call attention, tor instance, to Mr. Truman’s proposal that unemployment payments be in creased and maintained on a nation wide basis during reconversion. The President has also asked for power to reorganize the executive department, and he wanted revision of the surplus propt rtv set- ip to place it under one adniini.-t aior. It is in the Roosevelt program, how ever, that most of the suggestions are found that parallel 'he pioa i n the Senate so-called Laterals pu n to push when they return next Oc tober.
