FAILURE TO KEEP RIDER PRELUDE TO ATTACK Gore-Amendment Would Require Confirmation of All $4,000 U. S. Appointees. By the Associated Press. The administration resolution to extend N. R. A, in abbreviated form ran into a filibuster by Senator Long, Democrat, of Louisiana, after Demo- cratic leaders had engineered a partial victory in the tangled parliamentary situation. "To the delight of crowded galleries, Long launched into a long and ram- bling discussion of N. R. A. after he had failed in an initial effort to sus- tain a “rider” on the resolution ex- tenlling the recovery law requiring BSenate confirmation of all Federal officials drawing $4,000 & year or more. Administration leaders rallied their forces, after their hurried recess last night, to win, 44 to 36, a test vote look- ign toward reconsideration of the rider. ‘That was to come later. The Louisiana Senator was eager to cbtain adoption of the rider, pro- posed by Senator Gore, Democraf, of Oklahoma, because it would break up the system under which the admin- istration has appointed Federal officials in Louisiana from the anti-Long fac- tion without Senate confirmation.

CONCLAVE HELD PAGESETTER Outlines Creed, Flays Foes, but Avoids Pitfalls of Platform Writing. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN. Staft Correspondent of The Star. SPRINGFIELD, ILL, June 11— | The Midwest “Grass Roots” Repub- | lican conference goes down in imme- | diate political history as s pace- maker for the G. O. P, throughout the country. In some respects it was rather an amazing affair. While it enunciated & Republican creed and a set of Re- | publican “policies,” it escaped the pitfalls of platform writing. While there are enough potential candi- dates for the Republican presiden- tial nomination to start a good-sized poker game in this Midwest. country, the conference kept away from can- didacies. In addition some 6,000 delegates turned up. When it is remembered that they came at fheir expense, it shows a redirth of blican ‘en- thusiasm of considerabile :proportions. Other Parleys Planned.
