-Comrnittee urge that should the minority XIII

eencv occur next fall the Democrats would be
held wholly TO blame for the fact that the
banks could afford relief to their patrons
Senator La Toilette. who cam be classed
neither with the Republicans nor with the Dem

portunity ever presented itself for him to oc-
cupy position which would command the at

DAY from the Republicans who voted with him
against the Aldrch bill Senator Borah de-
ciined 10 oppose the judgment Of the majority
of his party and Senator Brown, of Nebraska,

Senator Hepburn told him he was disposed TO

ton which could be obtained. and Senator
Bourne withheld his decision.

Culberson. the Democratic leader. and pro-
posed. if Mr. Culberson could furnish an occa-
sior1al Democrat to spell" him. to undertake a

replied that as he had called Democratic con-
ference for Tomorrow morning he was not in
a position to accept. or reject the proposition
There lii be no disposition on the part of the
Republicans to curtail full and fair debate, but
should il become evident that dilatory tactics
have been adopted and that any Senator is talk

insist on continuous session and the fibustfr

course is imperative. as Speaker Cannon has an
r1ounced that he will entertain motion for

also expected that at least two Democratic Sem
