tor Borah. powerful supporter Of
President Hoover in the 1928 cam
paign. announced in the senate Mon
day that he will not support the pres
ident for reelection on the platform
adopted at the Chicago convention.
After a speech denouncing the plat
form adopted by the convention,
Borah was asked point blank by Sen
ator Lewis (Dem.. IllD If he would
support the reelection of Hoover.
II will not" Borah replied.
That was all. but 1t was enough
to send a thrill through the senate
chamber, crowded with senators who
remembered the powerful influence
the Idaho orator had in the 1928
campaign.
Borah previously had announced he
would not be bound by the platform
and served notice that the prohibi-
ton issue would be carried to the
people.
Senator Lewis recalled that Borah
did much to make possible the cleo
ton of the present president" by con-
tending that his opponent. former
Governor Smith, stood for nullifica-
ton.
He was able to convince the states
of North Carolina, Tennessee and
others, that the president was for
the 18th amendment and that We
who were opposing 1t were nullifiers
of the constitution Lewis said.
Borah said the Republican prohibi-
ton plank was adopted for political
expediency' and that the convention
was overwhelmingly for repeal of the
18th amendment.
Borah said he would confine his re-
marks to the prohibition plank be-
cause the platform as a whole was
inadequate" and fell dead at the
feet of the American peonle,

its remaining big legislative problems,

down a final curtain next Saturday

gress has been engaged in since last
December to aid the government and
the people In period Of great stress.
just two remained to be acted on fl
nally. These were the slashing of
federal expenditures and providing
some clear-cut federal relief for the
unemployed.
The national economy bill, after be-
ing torn up and rewritten time and
again. was returned to the house for
settlement of a final difficulty. A
vote was sought on whether to stick
by the proposition Of reducing gov
eminent salaries by a flat percentage
or to yield to the furlougn plan asked
by President Hoover and adopted by
the senate. Many leaders believed
the house would yield. thus sending
the bill and its approximately $780,
100000 of savings to place beside th2
billion dollar tax law, which 1t must
help to balance next years budget.
The senate tackled a still harder
problem in the relief question. Tbs
bill under debate was the Wagner
