Reed 4RuthIessIyv Denied Seat

Reed "RuthIessIy" Denied Seat
 What the second session lacked in the dramatic fire of the opening day it made up in the smoothly working control which administration support CTS exercised. Anti Wilson contests, such as that of Senator Reed of Miss ouri for place on the floor, were swept away with ruthless but good natured haste.
 Even the ''booes" and misses which greeted mention of Senator Reeds name had tone of humorous ridicule.
 The announcement of unanimous vote" delivered by the chairman against a feeble chorus of noes" here and there never failed to bring cheers and laughter from the delegates.
 The great auditorium was filled with even greater crowd today than yes terday. There was no vacant seat in the impressive sweep of the galleries rising steeply in walls of faces on three sides on the floor. Long before the days business could proceed the hub bnb of conversation rumbled and mumbled a steady undertone to the music of band and pipe organ. Boom CTS for Attorney General Palmer or Governor Cox took lively, if impromptu part in the entertainment features
 Senator Robinson had a little diff culty keeping the machine going at the pace MT. Cummings had set. There was a little confusion on parliamentary procedure at times, and once Mir. Cum mings intervened to straighten out a resolution to perfect the coloneFs plans to give women full and equal repre- sentatton on the national committee. The committee women already have been elected by many delegations.
 The delegations were still of a mind for more pounding of the Republican party and the Chicago platform when Senator Robinson delivered his speech as permanent chairman. He woke them to uproarous approval when he shouted that he made no apology for article 10'' of the league covenant. To the accompaniment of applause he lambasted the senate under Republican leadership for procrastination in deal ing with the treaty and for it's rules that senator could talk to such an extent on any subject that nobody but God can stop hm."
 Shouts DisapproVal of Senate Acts
 The chairman had gotten the con vention up to a good pitch by that stage and with precipitation rolling his words to the farthest corners of the big building, he leaned down over the roped speakers stand.
 Tt is to the shame of the senate" he shouted, "that 1t took a greater time to defeat the treaty than the army and navy LOOK 10 win the war.
 The delegates leaped to their feet cheering. It was a minute before he o@yld be heard again, shouting:
 And they left the treaty right where it was when the president brought it back from Paris"
 Failure of the president to take with him to the peace conference members of the senate had rankled in some senatorial hearts, Senator Robinson continued. but he added that if the president had done so and the sena- tors had shown no more intelligence at the conference in drafting the treaty than they have shown in it's consid- eration-then God bless Woodrow Will son for leaving them at home" Again the delegates clamored their agreement.
 Mir. Cummings, in putting through a resolution congratulating Governor Roberts of Tennessee for having called special legislative session to deal with the suffrage amendment, got cheers when he declared it unanimous in the face of a mutter of negative votes, coming mostly from the vicinity of the Georgia and other southern delegations
 Predicts Democratic Landslide
 American women are for peace and against war" Senator Robinson told the convention, and they'll vote that
