Congress Adjourns Without Sunday Bill Action

Congress adjourned just before midnight, May 30, without further action on any of the pending Sunday bills. The Johnston bill, passed by the Senate, is thus left in the hands of the House Committee on the District of Columbia for consideration when Congress convenes again in December, as are the other Sunday bills introduced in the House. This gives about six months before these bills can be taken up again, and during this time a most earnest campaign in behalf of the principles of religious liberty ought to be carried on in every State.
