under Secretary Chandler, Mr.. Baker,
Pop, OF Kansas, who followed MIR Bou-
telle, spoke briefly on the bill from

gave rise to frequent Interruptions
The discussion was closed by MIR.
Cummings, chairman OF the naval af-
fairs committee, who revived the old
charges against the Robson regime
Mr. Reed delivered a sarcastic reply
to Mr.. Cummings, He ridiculed the
applause which had followed the close
Of Mr.. Cummings speech as asserting
that It was applause Of men who We're
ignorant of the facts. The speech OF
the gentleman from New York was
merely a re-hash OF an attack which
he had made on him (Ntr. Reed in the

TO do SO. Repetitions Of failures never
made success. and he was surprised
that Mr.. Cummings should resurrect
