Objection to Election.
OHIO SENATORS ALONE
ON SIDE OF DEFENSE
Fess Asks Body to Stop Stump
Speeches" and Steady
Flood of Rumor.

Appointment of Senate commit
tee headed by a La Toilette insur-
gent to investigate the entire official
record of Attorney General Daugher-
ty appeared certain today after fur
ther conferences among republican
leaders.
At the. outset Of debate on the in
vestigation resolution today Senator
Lodge. republican. Massachusetts,
withdrew his proposal to let the
Senate's presiding officer name the
committee.
It was indicated that the republican
organization would no longer oppose
the plan of the democrats and in
surgents to choose Senator Brook
hart, republican, Iowa, to the chair
manship by a vote of the Senate.
The two Ohio senators, Willis and
Fess, continued their opposition to
the proposal, but they got little sup
port from any of their republican
colleagues.
Defense by Fess.
In a speech reviewing the charges
made in the past against Mr.. Daugh-
erty, Senator Fess declared it was
time the Senate stopped including
stump speeches" in it's resolutions
as he said had been done in the in
vestigation resolution presented by
Senator Wheeler. democrat, Montana
II hope this is not a school for
scandal" Senator Fess said. II hope
the Senate will not fall from the high
standards of the past and become ar
inquisition--a sluice way for rumor.'
HAS it come TO the point where q
man must be pauper, do-nothine
to escape inquiry"
He predicted that the oil reserve
leases would be found legal. despite
the judicial decision" of the Senate
to the contrary.
In arguing that Mr.. Daugherty de.
served an impartial committee. the
Ohio senator said that Senator Brook
hart has for years been connected
in his life and thought, with a GER
tain industry that makes certain acts
of Mr.. Daugherty very offensive to
him.
Il hope that will not prevent cai,
treatment of Mr.. Daugherty,' he added
Senator Fess said he had never beer
great admirer' of Mr.. Daugherty
but had never doubted his honesty
probity and integrity.
Senator Walsh, democrat, Massa
chusetts, interrupted to observe tina
Senator Fess had made very Sc
we're arraignment of the Senate.
II never heard worse one" satt
Senator Walsh, declaring the "scan
dalous" disclosures in the oil scanda
were perhaps what was referred to
Senator Fess replied by reading ;
telegram scoring the Sen.-te fol
"hysteria becoming corner grocery
and for playing -"petty politics"
SIT seems to me it's about time
for the Senate to get back to some
thing like the Constitution tha
created it," said Senator Tess. I'm
not going to allow petty politics Of
any organized regime to vote agains
any man and lssassinate his character
without hearing. That's, un-Amer
ican.' :

Chapman, representative of the New York Herald-Tribuns Fresh Air Fund. was in Putnam two or three days this week arousing in. terest in Putnam in the funds work of taking thou lands Of tenement children from the city and giving them two weeks vacation in the country. lt Is the hope of Mrs. Chapman and those in charge of the work here, Mrs. w. J. Bartlett, president, and Miss Gertrude Perry. secretary and treasurer. that a large number of children may be plae- ed in Putnam homes this summer.
 The exact date for the arrival of the city youngsters is not yet set, but il is believed that they will come about the middle of August and stay the last two weeks of that month.
 Several people have already expres- sed their willingness to take children for two weeks. others who will do so should communicate with Miss Perry. People whc cannot open their homes to the city children may help by giv- ing donations.
 Eight dollars is a sufficient sum to board child in the country two weeks, and there are many people who will take children fl the money is paid, but feel that they cannot afford it, otherwise.
