IN ROW IN SENATE
Representative Of State Ma
nipulated by Predatory In
terests," Says HefIin
REVISED TAX BILL BACK
BY tho Associated Press

Washington, Nov. 22.-Disordcr
marked the beginning today of Senate
consideration Of the conference report
on the tax bill, the climax being reached
in the unusual procedure of expunging
senatorial remarks from tho record.
Inc words stricken out were con-.
tained in verbal clash between Sena-
tors Pcnrose and Heflin, Alabama. in
which Mr.. Penrose referred to the
black darkness Of the state" repre-
sented by Mr.. l,eain. and the Alabama
senator characterized Mr.. Penro. $
state as manipulated by predatory IN
tCrCstS."
Tie clash was nrecipitated dire Y
by conversations among Senators wiith
Mr.. 1iChin claimed disturbed him IN a
speech on the Ford dNewbcrry senator
ial contest. JIe asked for order. Scna-
tor pcnrosc. who earlier in the session
had declined to permit Mr.. Hetlin to
have tic fiOor to continue his sneech
from yesterday, interjccted that he was
mot .Grprlsed that Senators did not
care to listen to the speech"
The presiding officer called for order.
Penrose Called big Boss"
And ] ar not surprised" Mr..
. lGCulIlN.t. Ut wv l'lluAh VI NI'
Senator from PENNSYLVANIA. He is
known as the big boss of the State of
Pennsylvania and that no Senator can
come here from that State unless
o. K.'d by him.
Again there was q demand that blsi-
ness proceed in order.
Mr.. Penrose then said he had no de-
sire to interrupt Mr.. Heflin, know
ing the black darkness he represented
in his State More Senate rules there
upon were broken. Senator Cummins,
presiding. ordered Mr.. Hehin to sus-
pend, but Mr.. Hefin shouted thai no
State in the Union was SO manipulated
~ predatory interests as Pennsylva-
MIA.
When order was restorcl Senator
Lcnroot, OF Wisconsin, made the mo-
tion to expungc the remarks. Scna-
tor Poindexter, of Washington, argued
il was useless to expunge the remarks
since every one in the Senate knew
that they had been said and that they
would be printed in the newspapers.
The motion, however, was adopted by
a viva voce vote, and with the smoke
clearing, Senator Harrison, Democrat,
of Mississippi, took the next step l.
restore peace by asking the Senate to
adopt resolution permitting Mr.. Hehin
to continue his speech I'm order
Tax Bill Brought Up
Mr.. Heflin and MIR. Penrose had not
gone along happily from the start Of
the day. Mr.. Penrose had called up
the tax bill report and Mr.. Hetlin con-
tended he had been assured last night
that he would be able to Continu" his
speech today. There we're difercn nces
of opinion. the chair ruling Mr.. Pcnrose
had the floor, from which Mr.. Hefiin
promptly appealed only to have the
ruling sustained by vote o. . to -.
The tax bill was broItht in then
without difficulty, but Mr.. Heiiin was
first up after that action and renewed
his attack on Senator Newberry, e
Michigan, whose seat is contested by
Henry Ford. Mr.. Helm also upset by
an objection an attempt by Senator
Spencer. Of Missouri, to get a unani-
nous consent agreement to vote on the
elections case early in the regular ses-
sion.
