absent from the chamber on account
OF illness. Desiring that he should
be present when the vote was taken,
Mr.. Bailey took the floor and an
nounced his determination to hold il
until Frazier could make his appear
ance. Frazier soon came in and
thereupon the Texas senator yielded
and the voting began.
The first vote was upon the motion
to substitute the corporation tax
amendment for the Lodge countervail-
ing duty amenment, and this prevailed

cast entirely by the republicans. even
McEnery of Louisiana, who has voted
with the majority side for all the pro-
tectlve measures, throwing his ballot
with his own party. The republicans
who voted with the democrats in the
negative were Senators Borah, Bris-
tow, Bulkeley, Clapp, Cummins, Dol

part of the vote of the previous roll
CALL
Next in order came the vote upon
the corporation tax provision upon its
own merits, but before this ballot
could be reached Mr.. Bacon sought to
obtain action on two amendments to
that provision presented by himself,
both of which Mr.. Aldrich moved to
lay upon the table with successful re-
suit. The first of these provided for
the exemption of educational, charit-
able and religious institutions, against
which Mr.. Aldrich made his first point
sharp clash with it's author. The
effect of the point of order was to cut
off debate, but Mr.. Aldrich CHANGED to
drop the remark that he would cal
lew" Mr. Bacon to proceed The form
CT expression seemed to incense the
Georgia senator and he retorted sharp
ly 20 the effect that he was mot sur
prised that Aldrich should assume
such a manner, because he had been
debating tc the senate so long he was
that kind" When the amendment
was laid on the table, AZ to 80, the
Georgia senator Immediately presented
another amendment requiring the tax
ation of bonds, which was rejected, Il
