The senator contends that the two
races have worked together for a half
century, and he does not believe any
greater need exists for their separa- :
tion now than at any time in the past.
The proposed plan Senator Clapp says
lie has been given to understand would
increase the expenses of the depart
ment by approximately $150,000 a year.
While there have been no very siren
