Dr. William Gerry Morgan, president of the congress, related the problems which Americans had to overcome in ning up the Canal Zone and mak- ing it a healthier place in which to live. A collection was taken toward the purchage of a motion picture ma- chine for lepers of the Canal Zone. Frederic Wiillam Wile likened the newspaper profession to that of the medical profession. He explained that ihe newspaper man's work is to ampu- tate fiction from truth. Mr. Wile re- ferred to the stir in the Senate over the demand by Vice President Dawes for a reform in procedure, and agreed with Gen. Dawes as to the need for a revision of the rules.

While the crowded galleries looked down with an air of rather tense ex- pectancy, and Senators themselves re- frained from the usual hubbub, the roll ca'l proceeded with the vote al- most equally divided So it went nip and tuck to.the end, the result stand- ing at the ‘call of the last name, 40 to 39 in faver of confirmation Field marshals on both sides rourded up all their forces, but op- pon:nts had in reserve a single Sen- ator, George of Georgia, who had de- clined to vot¢ when his name was called because of a pair with Senator Phipps, Republican. Colorado. A transfer was found for him and his vote brought a deadlock. While leaders on both sides were sending pages scurrying in search of one or two absentees and were eager- Iy watching the entrance doors, a drama little less stirring was being enacted behind the scenes. Called by Telephone. When it became apparent early in the roll call that the result would be extremely -close, Vice President Dawes was summoned on the tele- phone. He was urged not to wait for his official ¢ar, but to get a taxi- cab and make. all haste. His secretary, Ross Bartley, meanwhile, hurried to the main floor entrance, stopped the taxicab before it reached the Senate porte-cochere and hurried the Vice President to an elevator, which had been waiting on signal from Senator Cameron, Repub- had jcan, Arizona, who had stationed him- | self on the front portico But Mr. Dawes arrived'in time only to hear the result on the second vote where his presence was of no avail because of the switch in ballot by Senator Overman With the casting of Senator George's tying vote on the first bal- lot—and on a tie the nomination was rejected under the rules—there were hasty conferences of leaders on the Republican side and the tally clerks paused in thelr work. “Let the result be announced,” shouted Senator Reed, Democrat, Mis- souri, a leader of the opposition. Senator Jones of Washington, the Republican whip, arose slowly to an- nounce that ~Senators Warren of Wyoming, Edge of New Jersey, Greene of Vermont, Phipps of Colorado and Lenroot of Wiscensin, all Republicans, were absen Again there were demands that the roll be closed, and Senator Reed of Pennsylvania changed his vote, ex- plaining that he did so in order that he might make motion to reconsider. President Pro Tempore Moses then declared the vote to be 39 yeas and 41 _nays and the nomination to be TEN-TEAN FOURTEEANTH | il i Broadcast Night ~with & petpourri Java Band—balle "ty Fails of Confirmation | rejected. Instantly a burst of ap- plause swept around the Senate gal- leries and brought a sharp rebuke from ths presiding officer for breach of the Senate rules, Second Roll Call Proceeds. During the ensuing confusion Sen- ator Reed of Pennsylvania offered his wotion to reconsider. Senator ‘Walsh, Democrat, Montana, another leader in the opposition, was on his feet immediately with a motion to lay that motion on the table. Then a second roll call proceeded amid much hubbub. ‘When the last name had been call- ed, the count again stood at 40 to 40, but this time a tie would have been a victory for the administration, s the Waish motion would have been lost. Before the result could be announe- ed howeve Senator Overman an- nounced that, since he was convinced that his Democratic colleagues dld nots wart Mr. Warren as Attorney General, he would change his vote so as to support instead of oppose the Walsh moetion. That made the re- sult 41 to 39, and closed the issue unless the nomination is resubmitted Two Voice Opposition e Just before the vote on confirma- tion the two Senators from Michigan —Couzens, Republican, and Ferris, Democrat—voiced their opposition te the nomination. Senator Couzens said he did not be- leve Mr. Warren would inspire con- fidence as Attorney General. “I would not hesitate to put Mr. rren In the Department of Jus- he said, “If 1 were going to the right to watch him 2nd fol- him. I would not hesitate to say that under those circumstances he would do his duty.” Senator Ferris sald he had known Mr. Warren for many years and esteemed him very highly. ‘But,” he added. “the information brought out here is of such a charac- ter as to make me feel that I owe it to the State of Michigan and to the people of the United States to vote against him.” Detense of Warren. At the outset of the debate Chair- man Cummins of the judiclary com- mittee, whick twice favorably re- ported Mr. Warren, spoke vigorously in his defense, and contended that he simply had served as counsel for the American Sugar Refinery Interests in the acquisition of stock in beet sugar factories in Michigan from 1902 to 1906, Senator Cummins emphasized that when the Government brought suit under the anti-trust law against the American Sugar Refining Co., Mr. Warren and others, the bill was dfs- missed a8 to Mr. Warren. He also called attention that the district at- torney had stipulated that the Amer- jcan Sugar Refining Co. had pald no service charges for the organization of the Michigan Sugar Corporation to Mr. Warren or any firm with which he was connected. Senators Walsh and Reed of Mis- sourl led the attack.
