sLater in the day President Cool
iIge served notice on the senate
tie denomination of Warrcn had
bprn decided upon on the Presf-
dents own initiative and that the
full force of the administration
was 20 be thrown into the struggle
to secure his confirmation. The
8 white house issued the following Ia
comic statement, the first formal
word on the contr0ectsvst De giy-
en- opt by the President:
cat the request of the President,
Mr.. Warren consented 10 allow his
name to be again sent TO the SEN
ate.
Three hours after Mr.. Coolidge
conferred with Warren at the white
house the nomination arrived again
ut the desk Of the senate.
Immediately, Senator Thomas J.
/. Walsh, Montana Democrat, who led
the opposition which resulted in
the previous rejection of the no.
mination made known his intention
of not only renewing the fight
ngaist nomination, but also ehal-
longing tho constitutional authori-
tv Of the President to resubmt the
nomination after il is once rejected.
The Republican leaders who ad-
viscd Mr.. Coolidge against rcsub-
mission of the nomination, accepted
the verdict of the chief executive
and began work toward obtaining
early confirmation.

Pgan; McMasters, South Dakota; Hi

would mark the margin between
victory and defeat, and no cppor-
tunity was lost by administration
senators to impress upon the six
not to expect favors from the par
ty in the future if they failed the
white house in this crisis.
Action came swiftly today. War
rem stepped off the Detroit train
at n. M. and went 10 the white
house for breakfast. Senator But
ler, who is the closest adviser Of
the President, was present.
Butler then came up TO the CAPT
tol and met the Republican leaders.
Shortly afterward he made the first
announcement that the nomination
would be re.subm.tted tomorrow
and upon further ,. communication
with the white house, that it would
be sent up today.
At noon the nomination arrived
at the vice president S desk and
was referred to the judiciary com
mittee for investigation in an cx-
ecutive session to be held later in
tho day.
Chairman Cummins Of the com
mittee. announced II meeting would
be called for tomorrow morning.
Warren has not yet asked for q
change to appear but it is probable
that Warren may face his critics
in open hearings.
Warren thinks that he has been
tried and convicted without pre-
senting defense and when the
nomination comes to the floof
again, full ll>detense will be offer
ed.
The Democrats arc preparing for
finish fight which may last for
days. There is no intimatiou that
filibuster will be attempted, but
Warren IS record will be more fully
discussed than was the ease before.
