His clection was the fruit of a long period of campaigning for offices to which hie was never elected, he having run for governor for the islature, as well as for a er offices, Tle served in the senate for six years, begin- ning March 4, 1911, In his campaign for the senate, Mr. Martine had the warm support of Woodrow Wilson, then governor- elect of New Jersey. The friendship of the two men later hecame strained over the issuc of appointments, and the question of the Ianama Canal tolls.

After Mr. Prall read into the rec- ord a long list of figures on the num- ber of first class planes asked for by the department tor defense of va- rious possessions and the number available at those places, Mr. Weeks said “undoubtedly there are short- ages” from the number recommend- {ed.
