committee Of the senate by Republic
cans In open caucus today He re-
ceived the vote Of thirty-four sena-
tors. eight Progressives voting against

cept Penrose's leadership in matters

is simply 4 difference OF view. There
Is very marked difference OF view
between a number of senator's in. fat
ters of taxation, and those opposing
the senator from Pennsylvania az
chairman Of the finance committee
base their objections principally ON
that alone. It Ia not . question OF in
dividual likes or dislikes and wa don't
wish to interpose any delay. Tho mat
ter is Of tremendous importance not
only to the party. but to the country.
I'VE assume that the time will come
when we will be found in opposition
to the policy OF Senator Penrose. we
are insistent In making plain our op-
position We arc against his kind OF
taxation and finance for all this coun-
try"
Borah said that II the league Of ma.

trade by extensing credits to foreign
nations began to take definite shape
here today.
Senator Robert L. Owen. Democrat.
OF Oklahoma, retiring chairman OF

endorsing the movement. Senator
Owen made an extended visit to
Europe during the winter and closely
studied the financial conditions exist
ing In the beiiigerent and neutral
countries.
1t was also learned that a bill to
carry out the proposed plan soon will
be introduced in congress.

These securities would carry a salts

If the full amount of the billion

debentures against the foreign securi-
ties and sell theru through the banks
The banks would be allowed fair
commission, which. 1t is expected
would induce them to distribute the
debenturas throughout the country.
Senator Owens said: There should
be established Immediately very
powerful foreign finance corporation
with ample capital with which to ex-
tend these credits on long time, on the
basis OF European securities. and such
a corporation should have authority
to sell it's bonds, secured by foreign
