A fight to give the western
district of Missouri another
federal judgeship was precipi
tated in the Senate early this
week by Senator Reed and the
disclosures he made as to lack
of faith on the part of the iu-
dietary committee proved very
d~iscomforting to the Republican
members of that body. AL
though the result is still in
doubt it is known that a num-
Der of the Republicans in the
Senate, recognizing the justice
OF Senator Reeds demands, are
prepared to join with the en-
tire Democratic membership of.
the Senate and give Missouri
the additional judgeship desir-
ed.
That another federal Judge
for the western district of Mis-
souri, is fully warranted was
shown by Senator Reed when he

The combined opposition OF
the senators from Missouri and
Kansas were unable to block the
confirmation of Maj. Robert G
Peck as lieutenant colonel in the
regular army. AS a result of
the fight made, however, he was
reduced in rank seventy-eight
grades. The fight against the
promotion of Peck, who slur-

following the Argonne battle in
France, was one of the most
spectacular of this session.
