Westinghouse Democrat, Ellison

Republican Congress.
Four insurgent Republican and the
two Farmer-Labor senators, Magnus

thus not only breaking a deadlock
which has existed since December 10,
but also giving the country convincing
manifestation that their control OF the
balance of power in the Senate is as
complete as is that of the Republican

On the thirty-second and final ballot

VENIzELOS FORMS CABINET
Premier to Act Without Portfolio
With Roussos as Foreign Minister.

Athens-Former Premier Venizelcs
decided to form a cabinet in which
he will be premier without portfol.o %.
with Georges Roussos, republican
liberal leader, as foreign minister, as
the only possible solution of the pro-
tracted government crisis
NJ. Zenizelos reached this decision
after General Danglis, who consented
to endeavor to form a ministry, had
failed in the attempt, despite an ali
night effort.
General Danglis' failure caused the
keenest disappointment to Venizelos
and his decision to become premier
himself was taken as apparently the
only curse remaining open.
General Danglis was commander-in-
chief of the Greek army in the last
Balkan war. He is the inventor of
the special bore heavy gun adopted
by the French army and called the
Schneider.

ing areas of the country in diversih'
cation OF the agricultural activities
was urged upon the members of the
house committee on agriculture which
opened a series Of hearings on the
Burtness Norbeck bill (the Coulter
PLAN.
The testimony offered the commit
tee showed that the war had inter
fered with diVersification, that had
been started prior to the great Goa
fict and was checked by the neces-
sity for growing wheat.
None of the present 'oan agencies
of the government could help the far
mers of the northwest, it was shown
by witnesses and speedy action was
urged in order that borrowers from
the $50, 000, 900 fund could obtain
funds to buy stock and start other &C.
t"ivities in the spring.
The financial condition OF farmers
in the northwest and other sections
of the country was analysed by the
witnesses, and it was shown that the
condition Of the wheat raisers OF the
spring wheat states were worse than
in any other section.
The hearings before the senate com
mittee on agriculture will begin al
once, and will continue before both
committees.
