Washington. D. C., November 20. l92s-Senator Frederic C. Walcott, Co use the words of Senator Pat Har- risen, democrat of Mississippi was one of the twenty "double-erosging 0ung Turks who "threw over the republican leader" and voted against a senate adjournment after the repub iican leader had entered into a gem tleman's agreement with the demo- crats whereby the republicans were pledged to support the resolution cal ing for the adjournment.
 Senator Hiram Bingham voted for the resolution providing the senate adjourn on November 23 introduced by Senator Simmons, democratic tariff leader.
 Senator Jones of Washington, act Ing republican leader and Senator Simmons had entered into an agree ment whereby Jones pledged the republicans to support an adjourn ment resolution if such a resolution were presented by Simmons. Sim mons introduced the resolution and wenty republican regulars promptly voted against the resolution, among whom was Senator Walcott. The ad- icurnment move was defeated by a 34 to 5i vote.
 Senator Harrison. who has been one of the leading democratic lights tn the tariff controversy, promptly attacked the regular republicans vot- ing against the resolution as being ''dcuble-crossing Young Turks.
 The action of those republicans ep, posing the adjournment resolution was born of Hack of courage, liar. rison declared. adding that they were afraid tc 20 back home for a weel and face their constituents"
 In addition to Malcott. three other New England republicans disregard ed their leaders pledge and voted against the resolution-Senators Gil lett of Massachusetts, and Heberi and Metealf of Rhode Island.
 In addition to Bingham, other New England senators who stood by Sen ator Jones. acting leader, were Dal and Greene of Vermont. Reyes am Moses of New Hampshire, Hale o Maine. and Walsh of Massachusetts | democrat.
 There is a strong sentiment her ! critieising the twenty republicans win ] bolted from Senator Jones' pledge a violating all senatorial ethics am courtesy. IL is held that the demo crats who voted against the resol ution violated no confidence as the, old Senator Simmons before the rol call that they could not vote for an, adjournment

to the regulars working for adjourn ment and demanded speedier action on tariff legislation.
 Senator Walcott. serving his first session as United States Senator, signed the round robin and voted with the "Young Guard against ad- journment, going directly contrary tc the action of Senator Bingham, Connecticut, senior senator and mem Der of the finance committee.
 Criticism for Waleo,t
 The action of walcott in joining with the youngsters of the Senate marked a distinct difference in opin- ion with the Senior Connecticut Sen ator in regard to tariff legislation. And while Senator Bingham may per met his seif-eonfdenee to lead him aside at times on the wrong path 1t would appear that Senator Walcott is guilty of erring on this occasion.
 For days a vicious, slashing, bit ing democratic tie-progressive coalition has been hammering republican reg ulars into submission, overriding al ! lars. and killing increase after in crease accorded to Connecticut in. dustries by the Senate finance com. mitte and the committee on ways and means of the House.
 Worried and worn out, the regu lars have thrown up their hands in defeat. As the situation new exists the coalition is in power in the Sen ate and can re-write rates as it' | fancy directs.
 Connecticut A Loser Connecticut has lost virtually every proposed increase that has been considered in the Senate. Tim, after time the coalition, by sheer force of numbers. has killed increas cd protection suggested for indus tries operating in Connecticut.
 And now. with the move for ad journment defeated. the coalition, 1T it's ugly mood of defiance will con tinue to wipe out Connecticut in creases until the Nutmeg State vii find scant pleasure in the rewritten tariff revision measure.
 The republicans, worn to an ede by the persistent attacks of the ccal ition and by a strenous summer il Washington, are ready to allow th coalition to do as it pleases. Ina fact has been clearly demonstrate on mcFe than one occasion, one last week when Senator Reed. re ferring to the clock and watch sche ] dule. told the Senate he wished | pronounce brief obituary for thl next industry to be slaughtered and second time when Senate Shoot, arguing for protection fo tinsel wire. made in this country onl, in Connecticut, deliberately threl his arms above his head. sat down I his seat. and admitted the coalition was determined to and had the vote to reduce the protection for tinss wire manufacturers.

Senator Waleott Speaks

Senator Waleott feels that the only hope for a decent tariff bill lies in the action of Congress some time this winter after the Shoot Hawley meas ure has been passed by the senate and sent to conference between the two houses.
 "The arguments for greater pro lection for both the watch and the clock industries were clearly and forcefully presented to the senate but the vote of the opposition over whelmed us" Senator Walcott said in referring to the action of the Sen ate in refusing additional protection for watch and clock manufacturers.
 "It is an uphill fight against great odds because of the coalition between couthern democrats and agricultur- aiists cf the northwest who seem to be determined that the industries of the northeastern part of the United States shall not get adequate pro lection.
 We must rely upon the confer ence report and the backing of the house of representatives which for tunatciy favors fair protection to in- dustry and the maintenance of our present wage level. and must work and hope for decent tariff bill some time this winter. tar aa
