Bone, of Wash- ington, and Allen J. Ellender, of Louisiana. of the committee are Senators Gerald P. Nye cf North Dakota and John A. Danaher, necticut. Senators Nye and Danaher are vigorous opponents of the New Deal and it would be inconceiv- able if either would pass an op- portunity to plaster one of its long- standing stalwarts.
