most enjoyable ever had. After .

joyed a delicious supper. After
ward they took another ride and
then returned to the park and
played a number of interesting
games.

report back to conference, saying his
amendment was "to the best interests
of the Government and the taxpay-
ers."
He contended the vote was more
important than any vote this Con-
gress has taken" and, speaking with
emphasis. said it involved my politi-
cal religion"
II am standing for a principle Of
government that will tend to purify
government and put it on a higher
plane" he said. 1T has been charged
my real objective Is to give jobs to
Republicans. I want to deny that
with all the vigor I possess. I object
to being put In the category with pie
counter politicians"
Norris quoted Frank Couzens, mayor
of Detroit and son of Senator Couzens,
Republican, of Michigan, as saying
what is needed is more business and
less politics in government"
Il wish I could burn those words
into the mind Of every voter" he said.
The Nebraskan said "the voice of
Roosevelt was crying for the amend
ment, but his voice was calling on
Democratic ears deaf to his appeals"
you and your party" he told the
Democrats, "are going to rue the day
you took such action. You are going

to find your President, when he runs
for reelection, is going to meet the
objection that his party has taken ad-
vantage of the poor to build a political
machine. 1t may be decisive, II it Is
close election"
Republicans Are Chided.
Neely chided Republicans, who had
criticized Norris in the past for voting
solidly behind him on the amendment
to bar politics. He said Senator Hast
ings, Republican, Of Delaware and
the others had forgotten what dan
gerous radical" Norris was.
The West Virginian ironically re-
ferred to Hastings, Fess, Republican,
Of Ohio and Reed, Republican, of
Pennsylvania as "non-partisan Re-
publicans'' and defended the patron
age system.
The bill, which was sent to the
White House by the Senate's action,
places the Government guarantee back
of the principal as well as the interest
of the $2.000,00O.o00 of home loan
bonds authorized in the last Congress
to relieve hard-pressed home owners.
1t also would nberalize the terms Of
the law to permit advances for re-
habilitation and enlargement Of homes
as well as repairs and maintenance for
them.

By the Associated Press.
The bill guaranteeing the principal
as well as the interest on home loan
bonds was before President Roosevelt
today without the amendment which
the President had indorsed to outlaw
politics in selecting Home Owners
Loan Corporation employees.
The Senate took final action on the
measure yesterday afternoon after an
effort by Senator Norris, Republican,
of Nebraska, to save the amendment,
lost by vote of 40 to 80. All Re-
publicans voted with him, but the
Democrats with five exceptions SOL
idly opposed him despite his warning
that their action comes mighty near
condemning Roosevelt"
The five Democrats who voted with
Norris were Logan, Kentucky; Nc
Carran, Nevada; Pope, Idaho; Thomas,
Utah, and Thompson, Nebraska.
The veteran Nebraska Senator stood
in the center of the Senate chamber
and called the Democrats 'job hunt
erS" instead of Statesmen" and pre-
dicted their decision might result in
the defeat of the President for re-
election.
Senator Nicely, Democrat, of West
Virginia, replying to Norris, said he
"overlooks the fact that by the great
est majority in the history of the
Republic, the people have issued a
mandate that Government affairs
should be administered by the party
now in power"
He said he would "acquit" Norris
of ANY political hypocrisy or skull
duggery," but asserted the Republicans
had voted your politics 100 per cent"
in adopting the amendment.
with the exception of about six Of
you," he said, addressing the Repub-
Hcans, you have been laughing up
your sleeves ever since you adopted
this amendment"
Norris said Neely's remarks were
~unjustifable" and "unbecoming."
Who is supporting Roosevelt now?"
he taunted the Democrats. You
ought to be statesmen instead of job
hunters. But these chickens are 60
ing to come home to roost."
Senator Bukley, Democrat, Of Ohio,
in calling up the conference report,
said the Senators had yielded to the
House on the Norris amendment be-
cause the vote in the Senate was very
close, while the ballot in the House
against it had been at the ratio of
two to one.
Norris asked the Senate to send the
