bassador to England, and Joseph /.

interior, we're confirmed speedily.
Resolutions Of regret at the death
of members Of both houses then
were adopted and the senate ad-
journed until noon Thursday
The Presidents message was re-
ceived with scattering applause in
the house. Members of both parties,
however, vigorously clapped when
the clerk read the Hoover statement
that the session should be confined
largely to tariff revision and farm
relief.
The farm bloc, which generally
has supported the President, ap-
peared to be surprised that the mes
sage did not go further in the mat
ter of farm relief. Farm senators
sat with solemn faces while the
message was read in the senate and
then issued public comments indi-
eating their mild dissatisfaction.
Brookhart Is DispIeased
The women's gallery Of the senate
was crowded with D. A. r. repre-
sentatives, but the other galleries
we're only sparsely occupied.
The attitude of the farm bloc was
expressed by Senators Smith w.
Brookhart, Republican, Iowa, who
campaigned throughout the west for
the president last fall and Capper,
Republican, Kansas, a Hoover sup
porter and nominal head Of the
bloc.
Brookhart said the message was
inconsistent in certain particulars
and failed to live up to his expecta-
tions. Capper said it was all right

Chairman McNary of the Senate
agriculture committee pointed out
the document did not mention the
debenture plan, which his commit
tee is planning to tack on the Hoo
yer bill unless it receives more dis
couragenent from the department
Of agriculture than was contained
in the Presidents message.
Democrats are Caustic
Generally the Republican leaders
who usually are eager to commend
presidential speeches were reluc-
tant to comment.
The Democrats and Smith sup
porters among the Republicans we're
caustic in their comments.

will report farm bill tomorrow, ex-
pecting to bring it up for consider
alton on the floor Of the senate next

reading OF the special message.
