IL was an attempt ne added. Ito

which il is difficult al this time To-
conjecture"
The resolution was reported on
Sd strict party vote by the foreign
affairs committee Rep. Huddcl-
stone, democrat, Alabama, refused TO
vote but his colleagues on the com
mittee all opposed the report.
Revise plan.
Later republican leaders revised
their plan 10 call the measure UP
Monday. because of the probable
absence OF members on that day
owing 10 the Easter holidays They
had no doubt that IL would bo
adopted. although the democrats
were lining up against H.,
hut were not equally confident
that the necessary twO-thirds TO car
ry 1t over Il presidential veto could
bc obtained.
In that connection Mr.. Cum
mings said he did not think Tor
one moment" that the president
would sign such a resolution. He
said the house was attempting to
exercise powers il did not possess.
Discussing the general political
situation Mr.. Cummings indicated
that the democratic leaders expect
I'd 10 have the aid Of the president
IN the coming campaign.
Wilson Improved.
Il hope that the president will be
able 10 participate actively in the
campaign" he said. He is inn
proved in health and while he may
not be able to take the stump, he
can still write and he can always
be heard through his writings"
He said he had not discussed this
phase lately with the president, but
that he had little difficulty iii ascer-
tanning the presidents position on
questions which l deem crucial"
Asked for the democratic view
Of the announcement of Herbert
Hoover as a candidate FOR the re-
publican presidential nomination,
Mr.. Cummings said:
1T is always a bad thing to see
an essential democrat attempt 10
liberalize a standpat party. Sup
pose we let that stand"
Mr.. Cummings said he assumed
that the question of more liberal
construction Of the Nolstead prOhibi-
ton enforcement act would be
before the San Francisco conven-
ton and also the Chicago conven-
ton"
