BOUGHT ELECTION
Senate Committee Justifies
Expenditure of $195,OOO
In His Campaign.

The Senate Privileges and Elec-
tions Committee voted to yes
terday to exonerate Senator Tru-
man Fl. Newberry, of Michigan, from
charges that he purchased" his
election to the Senate in 1918.
The committee declared Henry
Ford's accusations against Senator
Newberry were completely unsus-
tained." and recommended prompt
dismissal of the contest. 1t re-
ported that Mr.. Newberry's eX-
penditures totalled s195,000. which
it justified on the grounds that the
Senator was compelled to spend
large sums of money in publicity to
offset the fact that Mr.. Ford's name
None of the money was spent
corruptly. the committee held.
Furthermore. II found that Mr..
Newberry, serving in the navy dur
ing the campaign. knew nothing of
the expenditures made in his be-
half.
Democratic members of the COM
mittee are preparing a minority re-
port. Prospects are that a spirited
fight will ensue when the Senate is
asked to ratify the majority report.
Several Republican Senators, per-
haps half dozen. are threatening
TO line up with the Democrats in an
effort to unseat Newberry.

n, the law. obtained unanimous con-
sent for its consideration. and fer
nearlv an hour It was promiscu-
ously debated The morning period
expired at Q o'clock, and Senator
Poindexter refused his consent for
further consideration OF the amend
ment.
Holds Congress Has Power.
Senators Borah, of idaho. Fletcher
of FLORIDA: King, Of Utah: Short
ridge, of California; Poindexter and
McKellar, of Tennessee, spoke on
the measure. Mcclellan declared
Congress has plenary powers In tne
District of Columbia. and the Con-
stitution of the United States does
not forbid Congress taking hand
in rent matters.
Senator Fletcher held that the
war emergency has passed ana the
situation is in the hands OF the rub
lie, which could solve its difficulties
by increasing housing. He said the
high rent conditions were due tc
the fact that most OF the recent
building had been done for the sales
markets. Forcing rent reductions
through the services of the commits
sion, praiseworthy as that body
may be, was the wrong way to cor
rect the evils complained of TO the
Senate. Some other means should
be found, he said, and suggested the
raising Of salaries as one method
Several Amendments Ratified.
Senator Borah raised the question
whether Congress had the power
even in war time. of fixing rent
rates and otherwise interfering
with private affairs. Senator Short,
ridge said the war emergency had
spassed and Congress had no right
10 go further. Senator King op-
posed interference with private af-
fairs, while Senator Poindexter de,

HARDING WILL NOT BIZ LOCK
CONGRESSIONAL VACATION
Tells Senators They May Take Recess if They
Leave Things Shipshape.

After Appearing doubtful for
weeks. a summer vacation for Con-
gress virtually was assured yes
terday when President Harding in
formed legislative leaders he would
not stand In the way of a recess;
IL they could get their house in
order" before leaving.
The Presidents consent to a re-
cess was obtained when Senator
Lodge. of Massachusetts, majority
leader in the Senate. and Senator
Curtis Of Kansas. the majority
whip. called at the white House
To consult on the legislative pro-
gram.
They came away with the un-
derstanding that. beginning the lat
ter part of next week. q recess
will be taken for thirty days by
both houses. provided the plan Is
acceptable to House leaders and
they can arrange to take care Of
pressing legislation in the mean
time.
Up to House Todya.
The proposition will be put up
to the HOUSE today. after which
the Senate leaders will return to
the White House for a second con-
ference. According to the best in
formation o5tainable last night, the
House will concur in the plan with
out reservation.
1t was learned following yester-
days conference that the President
expressed anxiety for early action
on pending legislation for the re-
lief Of the railroads, but he agreed
not to insist upon 1t when he was
told that 1t would preclude a recess.
Senators Lodge and Curtis ex-
planned that the intense opposition
that is developing in the Senate
to the administrations plan for help
ing the roads out OF financial dis
tress presages a protracted fight
when II comes UP. Bringing 1t for
ward nok. they declared. would
mean that there would be. no recess.
Leave when Tax Bill Comes.
After the conference. Senate lead
ers reached an understanding AMONG
themselves that the recess shall be-
gin when the tax bill Is received
from the House. provided nothing
else interferes. This measure is ex-
pected over not later than the end
of next week.
In the meantime, 1t was agreed to
push through certain farm relief
legislation on passage Of which the
agricultural elements in both
Branches are insisting. and also a
resolution extending the life of the
Fordney emergency tariff act as a
precaution in the event the per-
manent tariff bill fails to pass be-
fore November. as now seems likely.
While Congress is away the SEN
ate Finance Committee will labor
on the tariff and tax bills. Senate
| leaders pointed out yesterday that
| recess will serve to expedite this
Legislation. as II will allow the COM
mittee to hold practically continu-
Gus sessions without interruption by
