WASHINGTON, June ga coup
giving him control of both houses of
congress and power to dictate legis-
lation in the remaining days of the
session has been undertaken here by
Speaker John N. Garner, while
other Democratic candidates for the
presidency have their attention CEN
tered in Chicago.
BY refusing to name conferees to
reconsider the economy bill, as the
senate requested, Speaker Garner
has obtained the whip hand in the
struggle over reducing federal per-
sonnet and pay rolls.
He has at the same time assumed
control of house conferees on relief
legislation, and personally is attend
ing all sessions on this subject,
though he is not himself a conferee.
Garner spent nearly all day Mon
day in senate committee rooms and
on the senate floor.
Toward the close of the day his
presence there was commented on
by Senator Porter H. Dale Rep,
VT, who called attention to
threats" made to the senate re-
garding the fate of economy legiS-
lation

from it's desire for certain changes
in the economy bill, or will accept
Gamers verdict that it shall be
passed as original conferees report
ed it. The debate promises to be
heated.
Last Friday when the conference
report was called up for approval
in the senate, such storm of OBJ
lection broke that the senate with
out a record vote agreed to ask for
a new conference.
The bill was returned to the house
with request that new conferees be
appointed.
Garner held the bill on his desk
without submitting this action to the
house, and let it be known that he
would name no one but the original
conferees, two of whom are in Chi
cago and will not return until the
end of the week.
Without warning, Senator Yves
ley L. Jones Rep., Wash0 then
moved in the senate that return of
the papers be requested.
Refusing to explain the import OF
his motion and objecting to at
tempts of others to speak on it,
Jones forced vote and won, 20 to
Is. Garner sat in the senate cham
Der while this was going on.
Later Jones said he will ask the
senate to reconsider it's rejection
of the conference report today,
while senators bitterly opposed to
provisions of the economy bill
served notice they will debate it at
length. They are under severe
handicap because of the absence of
twenty-five or more Democratic
senators.

bill agreed this morning to appor-

climb aboard the Roosevelt band
wagon within the next twenty-four
hours.
These reports alleged that John
F. Curry, Tammany leader, had
come to the conclusion that while he
was not enthusiastic about Roose-
Velt, there was no other course open
except to support him.
1t was represented that while he
personally favored Ritchie or Baker
he had felt that he could not sup
port an outside candidate when
New York had two in the field. His
hostility to Smith is deep and he
was elevated to the leadership of
Tammany over Smiths opposition.
The candidacy of Melvin A. Tray
lor of Illinois emerged into the open
today with the announcement that
he is to be placed in nomination
by Michael Igoe, retiring Demo-
cratic national committeeman for
Illinois, and regarded as friendly to
Roosevelt.
Reports were current that dis
cussions were afoot to swing Illi-
noiS in behind Roosevelt after a few
ballots, with the prospect that Tray
lor might be made the vice-presi-
Dental candidate. Traylor, how
ever, has denied emphatically that
he is interested in the vice-presi-
dency.
The Shouse fight serves as the
vehicle for what amounts to an
attack on the personal integrity
of Roosevelt who, it is alleged, con-
sented to a deal whereby Shouse
was to be given the permanent
Craftsmanship if Roosevelt wag
allowed to name his own man for
convention keynoter.
Now Smith and his allies openly
are charging Roosevelt with double
crossing Shouse. They have issued
a flood of statements here for the
last week reiterating the charge.
The roll-call on this fight Is re-
garded as the first convention test
Of Roosevelt strength. However,
Roosevelt expected to lose some
delegates on this test who are count
ed upon to vote for him on the
nominating ballot.
