The Session Dies.

The first session of the Seventy fourth
Congress closed most Unexpectedly with
the death of an appropriation bill. This
was not because the Congress shrank
from appropriating sl2oOO,ooo more
the amount carried In the now defunct
third deficiency bill. Far from it. This
Congress has a record of greater appro-
priations than any other. The appro-
priation bill died because Senator Huey
P. Long of Louisiana took the floor and
filibuStered the measure to death. No
opportunity was given to vote before
the hour of midnight last night, when
an adjournment became automatic.
Adjournment, if not the passage of the
deficiency bill, was made possible last
night because President Roosevelt made
a compromise" with the Senate cotton
ment loans on cotton from nine to ten
cents pound and to pay the cotton
farmers the difference between the price
for which they sell their cotton and
twelve cents pound. In the considera-
ton of the deficiency bill coalition of
cotton and wheat Senators on Saturday
had written amendments calling for
Government loans of twelve cents
pound on cotton and ninety cents a
bushel on wheat. The new order,
granting the ten-cent loan on cotton,
was issued late yesterday for two pur-
