Chester W. Hill. collector Of the por. OF

His resolution was finally defeated by
the democrats and one republican, Sena-
tor Clapp of Minnesota, the vote being
forty-one to thirty-ono.
Failed in Executive Session.
Senator olive mad previously attempt
ed TO get action on his resolution in an
executive session of the Senate. but had
failed. Yesterday. though he failed to
| have it PASSED. he had the matter thor
oughly aired in the Senate.
Democratic senators urged that the
President was acting fully within his
| constitutional rights when re requested
the resignation Of any official of tn.
executive department. with or without
cause.
Senator Oliver declared the ostensibe
reason for the request for Hills resiS-
nation was that the President wanted p
man more in sympathy with the ADMIN
istration.' but that the real reason
seemed to be that Hill was a republican.
Senator Oliver said that the Senate AMI
the country should know whether the
President expected to retain republicans
when their terms expired. or intended to
dismiss officeholdcrs for political rea
sons.
Defended the President.
Senators Martin and Kern defended the
Presidents right to remove Hill without
consulting the Senate.
Senator Kern declared ''if he were do
ing it so many republican heads would
fall into the basket that the Senate re-
publicans would be kept busy inauiring
into the causes.
Senator Bacon asked the Senate to vote
against the resolution because. if a prece-
dent We're set calling for papers in this
case. the papers might be called for in
thousands of cases. and the Senate would
be swamped with similar resolutions.
