WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator
julius Caesar Burrows sits on the
floor OF the senate-that is to say, in
chair on the floor of the senate-and
beams and beams a bewhiskered smile
irresistible to all except Senator Al
bert Jeremiah Beverldge, who was a
candidate for the temporary chairman
ship Of the Republican national COM
yention. which came 10 Senator Bur
rows through the kindness of the COM
mittee having charge of the choice.
But there Is no sunshine at the

for confirmation in the choice of John

Forakerite, as general secretary OF
the national convention.

satisfactory. The Michigan senator is
placed by the administration in the
ranks OF trimming reactionaries," a
Rooseveltian term meant TO describe
those who at heart are against the
Roosevelt policies. but on the surface
are for them.
While 1t is entirely probable that
Senator Burrows will submit his key

the administration has already con
WINGED itself that afterwards he Will
