to nominate Smith for the presidency.
''If it doeS," he shouted, 'the re-
publicans can defeat him with any
body by from 15,OOO,OOO to 2O,OO0,000
votes The American people, know
ing what the Roman Catholic political
machine is doing, are not going to
put him in the White House just
now. Any leader in the south who
supports AL Smith will never come
back to this capitol"
Charging that the Catholics of all
countries would contribute funds to
Smiths support, Heflin asserted that
they already were spending money in
the south and ARE sending writer's
down there from New York to traduce
my state"
In opening his reply, Robinson said,
and other members OF the special
committee which investigated the
Hearst documents agreed with MIN,
that there was no suspicion that the
Roman Catholic church had anything
to do with the documents. Then
the Arkansan expressed "amazement"
that Senator Heflin had called at
tention that Mrs William Randolph
Hearst was a Catholic as if that had
any connection with the publication
OF the documents.
Heflin was on his feet Immediately,
demanding the discharge of Robinson
from the committee, but when the
democratic leader asked unanimous
consent for an Immediate vote on
the proposition the Alabaman OBJ
jected.
AS the Arkansas senator then de-
nounced Heflin's attack. on the
Catholic church and Gov. Smith, the
Alabaman challenged his leadership
Of the party in the senate.
'The senator from Arkansas can
not remain leader of the democrats
and fight the Roman Catholics battle
every time it is raised in this body
without some expression from con-
stitutional democrat" HELM said.
Whenever the senator from Ala
bama can determine who shall be
the leader OF the demOcrl tic party
in the senate OF the United States"
Robinson retorted, that party can
get somebody else than myself to

Senator Robinson declared that it
was with peculiarly bad taste, with
out justification in the conscience OF
"a single one OF his colleagues the
senator from Alabama has lugged
into this debate the name OF pro-
spective presidential candidates
s"The senator from Alabama has
asserted over and over that the gov
ernor of New York, MI. Smith, will

his reason the assertion that Gov

Agent Simon declared that the year
had brought much better results than
he had anticipated and he said that
it was his belief that was. due in a
measure to the fact that3s Chevrolet,
made as it is by the General Motors
corporation, is SO staple in the motor
world that people regard it as one OF
the outstanding bargains in the field
He said that adherence to- the policy
of satisfactory service guarantee loc-
ally had, without doubt, proved worth
while and he plans to continue that
policy He says that with the latest
models in the Chevrolet which are
Bigger and Better he firmly expects
to make a record this year that will
be equalled by none when it comes to
selling one Of the lighter cars. He
calls attention to the fact that he has
a stock of parts that will meet any
emergency, that his sales force is well
organized and. that he is, able to make
immediate delivery of cars from the
floor and that he has new shipment
due to arrive this week.
Furnishing an appropriate ending to
good year, Simon entertained his
sales force at dinner last evening.

Burial Of Thomas Hardy

Although the ashes of Thomas
Hardy's body will rest in the ''Poet's
Corner" of Westminster Abbey, his
heart will rest in Stinsford church
yard, near the graves OF his father
and mother and first wife.
Because he expressed the wish that
he should be buried at Stinsford
where he wrote Under the Greenwood
Tree and several of his poems, Mrs
Hardy has decided that his heart
should lie literally, as figuratively it
always has been, within sight of his
old home.
In the Abbey, Hardy will lie near
the tomb of Charles Dickens and OF
such illustrious men as Samuel john
son, Sheridan, Tennyson and Brown
ing.
Mr.. Cockerell, who is the dead poets
literary executor, said that it was toe
early to say whether Hardy left any
unpublished manuscripts, but there are
probably few poems. It was said

Gust declared the seven state COM

tention, he said, it is legally impoS-
sible to carry out the compact, be-
cause, according to law, it is i'm
possible to carry out any contract

Governor George H. Germ, OF Utah,
told the committee that ratification
of the compact by the seven states
is regarded as important, and that
congress would be guilty OF sectional
discrimination ii it passes legislation
which will take money from other
states for the development OF Cali

leader.
Eyes, and if you do, they will tar

| In his reply to Robinson later,
Heflin Jared any democratic senator
who would rebuke him 20 STAND up.
None did, but shortly afterwards,
Reed, OF Missouri, arose and walked
from the chamber.
(! Again Heflin called upon every
democratic senator who approved OF
the attack made on him to stand up.
Again his colleagues remained seated
and the Alabaman declared that this
showed disapproyal OF Eobinson's
leadership. A roar OF laughter swept
the chamber and galleries alike.
Heflin spoke this time Tor half an
hour. He announced that he would
introduce a constitutional amend
ment calling for the deportation OF
all citizens who could not with hand
on heart" swear single allegiance to
the constitution and the RAG.
Declaring that he never had been
classcd as an AL Smith supporter,
Senator Robinson told tie senate that
he did not belong to That class who
believed that Smith should be ex-
cluded from the list of candidates
because he is Catholic.
'I believe that cne who is a
Catholic has just as much right to
apply for the favor OF his party
associates as one who is a Methodist
or a Baptist" he continued, "aild /
believe that when you deny that
right, you deny a fundamental prin-
ciple Of this government"
With eloquent tongue and forcefu
gesture, the democratic leader re-
called that in the grim DAYS OF the
war when Americans went out to
die for their country there was no
question whether they were Catholics
or Protestarlts.
| "Above the smoke of conflict" he
said, "there lowered one figure, ven-
Grated by men, women and children

the figure OF a ardinal-Cardinal
Mercier. God bless his memory, No
man made greater sacrifices endured
more prolonged hardships, faced
death with more unyielding courage
than this Catholic cardinal"
I Turning again on Heflin, the Ark
ansaS senator declared that the Ala
bamans statement that he would be
tarred and feathered if he made his
speech in Alabama was illustrative
of how good man can go wrong,
and how far wrong he can go, and
what fool he can make OF himself
after he has gone wrong"
In his final address to the senate
Heflin said he repudiated Robinson's
speech and added that he was hurt
and astounded" by the lecture" OF
the leader of his party.
'I had right to tell what I
thought was behind these documents" !"
he explained, I arose to tell what
/ thought OF these Roman Catholics
in every walk OF life The senator
from Arkansas has gone out of his
way as a senator as a democrat, and
as the democratic leader to defend
the Catholic church which has been
attacking me.
