COZ. SLATE GOES
THROUGH INTACT
Progressives Line Up with
Old Guard on Senate
Committees.

With the help of Progressive Sena-
tors who vowed recently that they
would never support Senator Boies
Penrose. of Pennsylvania, for chair
man of the Finance Committee. the
entire Republican slate for the COM
mittees of the Senate, including PEN
roses selection. was adopted by the
Senate yesterday.
A strict party vote was recorded.
The full voting strength of the Re-
publicans-forty-nin votes-was given
for the slate. Democrats cast forty
five votes against it. Two Democratic
Senators were absent.
Progressives who voted for Penrose
were Borah., johnson, Jones, McCor-
mick, McNary. Cummins, Norris and
Kenyon. In so doing. they carried out
the pledge given old guard leaders
that IL they were permitted to air
their grievance against Penrose in a
public caucus. they would carry their
fight against him no further.
The Democrats tried for three hours
to prevent the Republicans from elect
ing their ticket. They resorted to
every parliamentary trick they could
devise to keep the resolution from
coming to q vote. This procedure irrj-
tated Senator Lodge. Republican lead
er. to such an extent that he lost his
temper. and rebuked the Democrats
for their tactics.

ing a meeting of the Harvard Club
of Washington in the Chevy Chase
school last night. In the most criti-
cal period of our war with Germany"
said Senator Poindexter, when Our
rights upon the sea, and our very eX-
istence as a nation were at stake. the
Bolshevists of this country made va
rious attempts to cripple our efforts
in the war. and to aid our enemies.
Much of the delay in the supply of
machinery and war equipment was
due to this.
THE practice OF sabotage and the
fomenting of strikes were among the
agencies used by them Some of their
work was secret, some was so open
as to take the form of insolent threats
to Congress. and to the President.
that strikes in certain essential wal
industries would be declared If their
demands were not granted.
Since the war they have been even
more successful They have r Id pub

this We have become the freest, hap
piest and greatest people in the world.
'Bolshevism is the antithesis of
this. 1t denies the principle of prop
erty and the security Of the ipdi-
Vidual.'
