joying new dormitory comforts as
a result.
In authorizing a SITS, 900 loan to
Arkansas Agricultural and Mechan-
ical college to finance construction
of two dormitories, the corpora
ton took a step which is expected
to bring a flood of requests from
other colleges.
Applications from two other col

ricultural college wants to borrow
S450,000 and the University of Col

mitories. Officials said these ap-
plications are in their final stages

project and hence eligible for a
loan because the students pay rent

McFADDEN'S SPANNING

Nm opinion registered by 361 per-
n sons is quite likely to be more de
sirable and nearer correct than a con-
trary opinion on the same subject reg
istered by eight persons.
This is about what the vote on i'm
peaehment of Presidest Hoover in the
house Of representatives yesterday
amounts to-
Representative McFadden, who drew
the scorn of all right thinking per-
sons last spring by charging that
the President had sold out his
country to a group of German bank
ers, was the author Of the resolution
which startled the house and the coun-
try yesterday
For his unwarranted attack last
spring McFadden was repudiated by
members of his own Republican party,
while Democrats, from their side of the
house, booed him Justify when he moved
over into their section seeking refuge
from the indignant protests of Republ-
cans.
Yesterdays procedure was practical
ly duplicate of that. Representative
Pou, Democrat was quick to offer a
motion that McFadden's resolution be
tabled and it was on this motion that
the house showed its confidence in the
integrity of the President by voting 361
to 8 in favor of tabling. McFadden was
the lone Republican representative to
vote against tabling. He was Joined by
seven Democrats.
The vote was taken amid cheers for
those upholding the President while boos
and Kisses greeted the eight votes regis
tered against him.
1t is not possible for the Presidents
best friends and staunchest supporters
to deny that he has made mistakes. He
is only human and therefore liable to
error. But not even Hiram Johnson can
rightly accuse him of any act that ViO-
lates the sacred oath of office he has
taken and respected through the past
four years.
With less than four months remain
ing in Mr.. Hoovers term, McFadden's
resolution was not only contemplate and
unwarranted, but it was illogical and
silly. If he thought to embarrass the
President his arrow fell far short of the
mark for the embarrassment has come
home TO roost on his own doorstep. AS
one of his colleagues said, the vote on
tabling the resolution was "the worst
spanking a grown man can get.
Representative McFadden is credited
In some quarters with being sincere and
above board in his antagonism to the
President. He might stretch point and
try also to be sincere and above board
toward his country.
