Responsibility for Increases.

Without specifically mentioning the
Senate, Mr.. Smith, facing the democratic
side said that many democrats else
where than in the House had been large
~ instrumental in placing the increases
in the bill.
This assertion elected loud republican
applause.
Answering the criticisms regarding the
proposed method of sending the bill to
conference, Mr.. Smith said that If the
members of the House were talkative
as those of the Senate it meant that thr-
teen months would be consumed in the
consideration of the b II by the House.
Maintaining that the republicans and
the country were greatly dissatisfied with
the bill, Mr.. Harrison On. W said it
seemed a pity for democrats to inject
themselves into the debate. He said. how
ever that if the republicans did not join
with the democrats In defeating the bill
the majority party would be repudiated
at the polls at the next election.
Mr. Norris CNeb) Joined his insursent
republican colleague, and protested that
the republican party would not be true to

lass, Ohio, two other republicans, were,
anything, even more outspoken in their

He would oppose the BILL as amended, he
