park board raised Brayton's stipend
to s2.500. About Dec. 1, the plan
commission employed Brayton as
consulting architectsat $2,400 year.

SENATE BATTLE OPENS
Resolution Against Smith Intro.
duced-Reed Probe Reports.

BIZ Inttfd Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The
fight to keep Frank l.. Smith from
taking the seat in the Senate to
which he was appointed by Governor
Len Small of Illinois was launched
in the Senate today.
Senator Ashurst (Dem), Arizona,
introduced q resolution denying
Smith the right to receive he quail
flying oath of office because of ex-
cessive primary campaign expendi-
lures. 1t also asked the Reed cleo
ions investigation committee to ad-
wise the Senate at "the earliest con-
venient date" such recommendation
as may be warranted.
Almost simultaneously a report
concerning the campaign expendi-
lures by Smith was submitted to the
Senate by the Reed committee. so
hat immediate action could be taken
on the appointment.
The report made no recommenda-
tion as to whether Smith should be
ousted
Senator Curtis, Republican floor
leader, invoked the Senate rule to
delay consideration of the Ashurst
resolution until tomorrow and no ef-
for was made to debate it.
Senator James E. Watson of In
diana said today. "The appointment
of Frank l.. Smith Is very Vnfor-
tunate. One thing to be prevented
is an extra session of the Congress,
and consideration of the case at this
time would force an extra session"
While Senator Ashurst's resolu-
ton to bar Smith was being con-
sidered. Senator Watson asked:
Does the Senator think his
resolution in order before Smith
makes, known his decision on the ap-
pointment?"
Ashurst responded he thought it
would be "fairer to Smith" to take
action Immediately.

This problem has been the bone of
contention in the four-day meeting

Governor, was cut from $4,000 to
$4,000 by the legislative finance
committee, but the schedule OF
salaries being considered by the
budget committee raised his yearly
stipend to $4,000.
