is closed. It was remarkable for
three things. first and foremost. in
the attacks that were made on the
president for his alleged usurpation.
Of powers: second, in the segregation
of Democrats and Republicans into
five distinct camps. in which seem
ingly party lines have been obliterat-

the wealth of talk that was indulg-
ed in. The president has been grid
ironed by both Republicans and
Democrats as taking TO himself pow

been taken by the senate as a direct
