 Lack of sensational developments in Nicaragua failed yesterday to quiet the low of cTiticism In con- gress of the administrators policy concerning the little republic. It came mainly from the senate. the house apparently being satisfied with the attack by Representative Hud- dleston. democrat. Alabama, and the defense of the administration by Representative Begg. republican. Ohio. Huddleston declared the Mic araguan peace treaty effected by Henry L. Stimson was illegal and that presence of marines in that country constituted imperialism. but Begg insisted the American govern ment was obligated to keep the marines on the job until peace was restored and . newsgovernment set up.
 Senator Wheeler's resolution for a blanket inquiry into the situation touched off the senate's discussion, In the course of it., Senator Hefin, democrat, Alabama. demanded with drawal of the marines and charged that an "unholy" alliance between Wall street and the Roman Catho- lie, hierarchy" in Nicaragua was keeping the troops there.
 Senator Bingham. republican. Connecticut. assumed the role of ad- ministration defender. arguing that this government merely was keep ing its agreement with the warning factions of Nicaragua. He drew re- newed criticism from Senator Nor ris, republican. Nebraska, who said he wondered if marines might not eventually be supervising elections in Panama, Ireland and other coun- tries where contending factions have come into conflict.

 family plans to make January l 5 a double holiday. On that day Bertha. daughter of Joseph, one of Mir. Bier's 12 sons. will be married at the Broadway Central hotel. and MT. Bier's presence there will be a fea- ture of the event.
