LITERACY TEST IS IN FOR ARGUMENT IMMIGRATION BILL BEGINS HARD FIGHT AFTER SHORT HOLIDAY RECESS. MANY OTHER. MEASURES Naval and Military Bills Expected to Cause Lengthy Debate in Both Houses. Washington,-With leaders In both houses determined to push through all neccessary legislation and avert an extra session after March 4, Con gres3 reconvened after one of the shortest holiday recesses on record. The appropriation bills and gener %l measures are expected to be clear ed up quickly by the House. The Sen ate, however still has before it practi cally the entire legislation program Dutlined at the re-opening of the ses ion, in addition to the, Immigration laill and the appropriation measures. There is. a growing disposition on the .part of. some .Democrate.s to side track; Qr defeat the immigration, bill. Senatgr Lewis after -a recent, confer ence .with the President threw down the guage of battle over, the literacy test issue which the President oppos as. Some Senators believe enough votes can be found to strike out the provision, which it is admitted, would perate to defeat the bill. Senator smith of South Carolina, chairman of lhe Immigration Committee, proposes, 2owever to continue the fight for the All, literacy test -and all. Leaders fi both houses anticipate prolonged .discussion over the naval mnd milita ~appropriation bills. The Government ship, purchase bill re ported to the Seate before the ad ournment, is awaiting an opportuni :y for discussion.

FLEETS OF AIR ARE ACTIVE. Russions Use Artillery.-Czar Joins Leaders at Front. London.-The airmen of the bellig rent countries spent a busy Christ snas holiday. While a solitary Ger pan flew over the Thames estuary and iropped a single bomb which fell in a roadway and - did no damage, a con voy of seven British naval seaplanes risited the German naval base at Cux iaven and dropped bombs on ships mnd the gas works. All but one of he British airmen returned safely to he ships which convoyed them. Sim,. lar activity was displayed along the >attle front, German airmen paying a mrprise visit to Nancy; French avia :ors to Metz; British to Brussels and athier Belgian towns occupied by the ermans, and German airmen to Pol s~h cities. As usual, accounts of0 the damage lone differ. While bombs were drop >ed during these flights, most of the lights were for reconnoitering. Except in- the Argonne and Alsace, where the French have made some progress, and outside of artillery practice, the battles in the west for :he last two days largely consisted of serman attacks, to counter those of he Allies and to prevent the Allies rom organizing the ground they had ained. 'Philippine Trouble Unimportant. Washingtonr-Details of the native iprisings in the Phillipines last week were given in a cablegram received by :he War Department from Governor leneral Harrison. The report mini nized the incident. Filipinos assem >led in Manila and Novotas Christmas Eve, it stated, and at Laguna de Bay mnd attempted to make trouble. Forty nen were arrested and one shot by a >oliceman. Governor Harrison reported that the lisorders had been suppressed; that iverything was quiet, and efforts were >eing made to arrest the leaders, the :hief of whom, he said, was, believed o be a man under sentende of im risonment for homicide. He added hat nobody of any influence or stand ng was concerned and described the novement as "small and unsuccess ul." It was connected he said, with he campagn of Ricarte, who has con Lucted a revolutionary propaganda rom Hong Kong for several years appealing to the most ignorant class s of Filipinos."
