SENATE TOPRESSON
I DESPITE DEADLOCK
Commerce Committee Chair
man Fight Not to Hinder
Business.

When the Senate convenes next
Thursday it will have before it as
unfinished business the election of a
chairman of the Senate interstate
commerce committee. So far there
has been no indication Of a break in
the alignment which deadlocked the
Senate on twenty-five roll calls be-
fore the adjournment for the Christ
mas recess.
Many senator's have been in their
home states for Christmas. In the
few remaining days, 1t is expected.
efforts will be made by the republic
whereby a chairman may be elected.
If no agreement is reached among
the republicans, either the election of
Senator Smith Of South Carolina, the
democratic nominee for the Office of
chairman. will be effected through a
combination of the progressive group
of republicans and farmer-labor SEN
ators with the democrats. or the Sem
ate will drop the whole matter. leave
the committee without a chairman
and turn it's attention to other busi-
ness, according to influential repub-
lican leaders.
Senate May Go Ahead.
The Senate can go ahead with its
regular business without -electing a
chairman Of the interstate commerce
committee. it was said. and the COM
mittee itself can struggle along per-
haps through the selection of a tenn
porary presiding officer.
There were rumors last night, how
ever. that steps are being considered
by the republicans which may make
possible a break in the deadlock and
the election of republican as chair
man..
Senator La Toilette Of Wisconsin. a
leader of the progressives, who has
been Ill and unable to attend the ses-
sions of the Senate, expects to return
to his seat In the Senate chamber, it
was said at his office, when the Senate
conyenes Thursday. This may have
considerable effect on the situation.
Big Issues Await Action.
Senator La Toilette is the rank
ing republican member of the COM
mittee after Senator Cummins OF
Iowa, who is the candidate of the
regular republicans for the chair
manship. It appeared clear after a
number Of ballots that neither of
these senators could command a
majority of the votes cast. The pro-
gressive group on the last day be-
fore the recess was voting for Sem
ator Couzens of Michigan, as chair
man.
Should the Senate be unable to
break the deadlock and lay aside the
question of a chairman of the COM
mittee it has number of important
matters to which to turn it's atten-
ton, including the proposed treaties
with Turkey and Mexico. Appropria
ton bills, tax and bonus legislation
must originate in the House, and the
Senate will have to wait until the
House sends these bills to it for con-
sideration and action.
If the Guardianship Of the inter-
state commerce committee Is finally
settled by the election of some SEN
ator other than Senator Cummins, 1t
is likely that Senator Cummins will

TOURIST CROP
FAR BELOW
ESTIMATES

n ARIS-Gay, pleasure-loving
Paris, the capital OF the
world, is reaping the profits
Of the 1928 tourist season while
Aix-les-Bains, Deauville, Carlsbad.
Toledo. Biarritz, and other usual
ly favored spots are almost de-
serted.
The tourist Of 1923 is not the
tourist Of other years. He is not
doing" Europe in three months
as of yore. He is seeing one
spot and seeing it well, and from
all indications Paris is that one
spot.
Truth be told this years tour
list crop" has flivvered. What
had been press-agented as the
grandest and most glorious year
of all for the American visitors
from across the seas hasn't come
up to expectations by somewhere
near so per cent.
Steamship companies which ex-
pected to pack their transatlantic
liners from early spring to late
autumn continue to maintain
they are carrying record breaking
numbers of passengers. But in
coming tourists report differently:
The leviathans of, the sea are
making their regular trips across
the Atlantic with in some cases
as many as half their first-class
staterooms empty.
Close followers Of the tourists
trade explain the situation by
saying that the average tourist
type" stayed home because he
feared war might break out in
from one to twenty spots in the
Old World at any minute.
But Paris hasn't suffered. The
tourist or today Is content to set
tie down Tor a long stay in one
spot. Indeed, he is offended If
he Is called a tourist. He is
visitor. He is not doing" Europe.
He Is living temporarily in Paris.
London might have cashed in
on this new scheme Of things
were 1t not for the fact that first
arrival of the season there sent
out alarm signals that prices were
terrific" The little tin turned
the crowds to Gay Paree."
For two months already It has
been impossible to make reserva-
tons at Paris leading hotels. be-
cause old customers and brilliant
new prospects with American dol.
lars have taken up all the &C.
commodations.
Even across the river, on the
cleft bank" or the Latin Quarter,
where prices are lower all the hun
dreds OF little, hotels are com
fortably filled.

You can't change Nature, no

the closet to make room for the

When the love of money ceases,
war will also cease, but never
