Senators Disregard
Thanksgiving Feast
To Rush Money Bill

WASHINGTON, Nov 81. - The
Democratic majority of the Senate
to-day disregarded the traditional
claims of Thanksgiving and went in
to conference on the currency bill.
The Senate also took only short
time for lunch and postponed their
Thanksgiving feasts until tonight.
The sharpest partisan feeling yet
manifested in the Senate regarding
currency legislation has followed the
decision of the majority to force
through a currency measure before
Christmas.
Democratic insurs eJtcy threatens.
Senators Hitchcock and Lane al
ready are off the reservation" and
there are predictions that Senators
Newlands, Vardaman and Ashurst
may follow. Only three Democrats
need desert their colleagues to hold
up the entire rush program decided
upon by the conference.
