asked unanimous consent that Monday
after the consideration of bills under
suspension Of the rules and Tuesday be
set apart for the bill TO amend the bank
ruptcy act. There was no objection and
the order was made.

the adoption Of the rule for the consid.

ciafed that the bill would be beneficial
TO the arid land states and dangerous
20 all the others. He criticized the ac-
ton OF the Democratic congressional
committee In adopting a resolution ia
voring the irrigation bill He declared
that the committee was without jurls-
diction and had no power to bind Dem
ocratic members. The whole scheme
was undemocratic, he asserted, and was
In the interest OF land grant railways.
Mr.. Underwood OF Alabama favored
the adoption OF the rule. He argued
that the only method OF building up
the arid land states was to provide for
their irrigation. The bill would not
take a dollar out OF the treasury he
said. II would only use the proceeds
from the sale Of lands In each state for
the benefit OF such state.
Mr., Shafroth OF Colorado also argued
for the adoption Of the rule. Mr.. New
