American recognition Of the
South American republic of Ell
Salvador was announced by Secre-
tary Of State Hull today.
Recognition of the Martinez
government of Ell Salvador marks
the establishment of friendly re-
lations with all the nations in
South and Central America.
American recognition of Ell Sal
vador has been withheld since
the 1881 revolution in that coun-
try. Under a so-called gentle
mans agreement" with the Cen
tral American Republics, this
country agreed not to recognize
any unconstitutional government
in any one of those republics un-
less a majority of the latter them
selves did so first. Costa Rica,
Guatemala, Nicaragua and Hon.

democratic Progressives, who are
none too fond of Mr.. Farley.
Today, for example, Senator
Costigan CD of Colorado. who is
a member of the Committee on
Election Expenditures, served
notice on Senator Jimmy"
Byrnes CD of South Carolina,
chairman of the committee and
frequently a White House spokeS.
man, that he would have no part
in any effort to investigate Sena-
tor Cuttings election, or in any
effort to unseat him in favor of
his Democratic opponent.
No Fraud Charged
Said Senator Costigan:
"The report of the investigator
sent to New Mexico some time
ago by Chairman ByrneS does
not impress me as warranting
an investigation. 1 state this
conclusion with reasonable con-
fidence after considerable exper-
fence in inquiring into dishonest
election practices and after care
fully examining and reviewing
detailed statements presented to
the committee. The case pre-
Sented to this committee by Sem
atOr Cuttings opponents is one
of remote and insufficient in
situations It is not even a chal-
lenging II cord.
"NO charge of participation
in election frauds has been
levied at Senator Cutting and,
unless a different case is devel.
Oped hereafter, it is clear that
the Senates attention should
not be diverted from pressing
problems merely to crafty those

President Roosevelt may find
himself acutely embarrassed if the
Democratic organization, directed
by Postmaster General James A.
Farley, persists in its efforts to
unseat Senator Bronson S. Cut
ting (R0 of New Mexico, and put
Representative Dennis Chavez Cd
in his place.
The Senate ProgreSSives, on both
the Republican and Democratic
sides Of the aisle, are up in arms
and getting "madder" by the min
ute.
It is automatic that politics
makes strange bedfellowS and oc'
caSionally produces queer results,
but seldom have the vagaries of
politics evolved a more curious
situation than exists today where
Senator Cutting is concerned.
Old Friend of President
Mr.. Cutting is a member of
an old, wealthy, and aristocratic
New York family. SO is the Presi-
dent. They have known each
other from boyhood.
Cutting was graduated from
Harvard. So was the President.
Mr.. Cutting went to New Mexico
for his health, and eventually
came to Washington as a Sena-
tor. Mr. Roosevelt stayed in New
York and eventually came to
Washington as President.
In 1882, Mr.. Cutting was one
of the four Republican Senators
who bolted Mr.. Hoover and sup.
ported Mr.. Roosevelt. In Phoenix,
during the campaign, Mr.. Roose-
welt went out of his way to praise
the independence and courage OF
his "old friend" who appeared
there on the platform with him
Declined Cabinet Post
Mr.. Roosevelt offered Senator
Cutting a place in his Cabinet
the Secretaryship of the Interior.
After pondering the matter for a
week, Senator Cutting declined.
He preferred to remain in the
Senate.
In the hectic days of the Sew,
enty-third Congress, Senator Cut
ting consistently supported New
Deal" legislation sent up by the
White House. Only on one i'm
portant issue did he break away
from the Administration. That
was on the issue of restoring
veterans benefits taken away in
the earlier economy act. spon'
Sored by Mr.. Roosevelt. On that
issue, Senator Cutting led the
fight against the White House
and won.
Came the campaign of 1884,
with Senator. Cutting up for re-
election. Senator Cuttings
friends anticipated that the Dem
ocratS would not put up can
didate against him, in view of
his support of Mr.. Roosevelt in
'32, and his subsequent support
of New Deal policies. But they
,reckoned without James A. Far
ley. Mr.. Farley insisted that if
the Democratic organization we're
to survive in New Mexico it would
have to put up candidate.
Representative Chavez was the
man.
Chavez Protests Vote
In last months election, Sena-
tor Cutting squeaked through by
q handful of votes. Representa-.
tive Chavez has filed notice of
a contest, and is depending upon
the huge Democratic majority
to "go down the line" for him
and unseat his Republican op
'ponent.
That action has antagonized

the Norris-La Toilette type, who
have been consistently support
ing Mr.. Roosevelt's policies. II
