Dramatic Sessions
Preceded Final
RoIIcalI

Washington, April 6-(UP)-Final
congressional action on the res
olution declaring war on Germany
came shortly after 3 A. M. on Good
Friday, April go years ago.
Through a dramatic night ses-
sion the House Of Representatives
had sat under leadership pressure
to put the resolution through be-
fore adjourning. Two days before
the senate had approved the reso-
luton after debate In which charg-
es Of near treachery" were hurled
at the handful Of opponents.
Many Of the statements flung
about during the dramatic house
and senate in the light Of history
show up the slight knowledge some
had of what war with Germany
meant. Sen. Claude Swanson of
Virginia - now secretary Of navy
spoke hoping that the United
States could send up to $4,000 men
abroad. Millions went.
Shortly before II p. M. on April
4 the senate approved the war
resolution. The vote was 81 to 8.
Vardaman Led Opposition
During that day of bitter debate
the opposition was led off by Sen.
James X. Vardaman Of Mississippi.
II only wish could believe that
the thing the senate is about to do
will rebound to the interest Of the
American people, but for the life
of me I cannot bring myself to be-
Ieve it will contribute to the well

STATES HATCHERY
MAY SET RECORD
Winter Founder Produce
ton at NOank Greater
Than Ever

Hartford, April 6-Winter founder
production at the state marine fish
hatchery at Noank may set an all
time record this spring, the State
Board Of Fisheries and Game es-
timated today.
Without resorting to the use of
adding machines, the Baord figures
that 100000 900 founder or flatfish
fry will be Matched and then plant
ed in coastal waters by June.
Founder production Is calculated
by measuring the quantity of eggs
obtained from spawn-bearing fish.
An ounce of spawn will average
$4,000 eggs, according to Captain
Frank N. Banning, in charge Of mar
Inc fisheries.
Up to the end Of March, CONNER
cial METERS had supplied the hatch
cry with 2,217 founders for initial
brood stock. A total Of twice that
number Is expected to be available
during the next few weeks while the
founder run is on.
In 1884, when the hatchery record
Of 345, 765,00 founders was estab-
lished, brood stock made available
during the season numbered SOFT,
with prospects indicating a larger
number ofspawners being provided
this year, a new record production
of 400,000,000 fry is anticipated.
Founder netting is Connecticut's
most important commercial fishery
and both founder and lobster fry
propagation at the state hatchery
Is financed through special approp-
riationS by the General Assembly.

that will not end with this war
but win live and bring their evil
influences upon many generations

Norris assertion that he felt
I'VE are about to put the dollar

aroused war supporters.
Sen. James A. Reed Of Missouri
said: III that be not treason It
takes on a character and guise
that Is so near to treason that the
enemies Of America viii gain from
it rich consolation"
"Grases Edge Of Treason"
Sen. John Sharp williams Of
Mississippi then added, IF 1t be
not treason 1t grazes the edge Of
treason"
Similar scenes occurred In the
house two days later.
An anti resolution speech by
Cooper Of Wise, drew the retort
from Rep. Pat Harrison, d., Miss,
now senator that the speech
would have been most appropriate
II delivered In the Reichstag."
Rep. Fred Britten, r., ILL.,, sought
to amend the restitution in the
house to prevent American soldiers
being sent abroad except by au-.
thorization Of Congress.
II do not believe that the great
masses Of our people are in favor
Of a declaration Of war;" he said.
Applause From Galleries
Retp. Carter Glass, D., Va, asked
B1Atten how he knew the people
do not want war" Applause, came
from the galleries at the question
and the presiding officer warned
the spectators.
Shortly after 3 A. M. the house
rollcall was completed. The vote
was announced by Speaker Champ
Clark as 373 to so.

Men Show Superiority
The result of the return bowling
match between the Davis Post Lee
gionnaires and the auxiliary, was a
foregone conclusion. The ladies
were not satisfied with the finish OF
the previous match, when the Lee
gionnaires showed the ladies the
way home on the Waterville alleys,
by taking two out of three strings
and yesterday afternoon q match
was rolled with the same answer to
the question. The Legionnaires
spotted the ladies 100 pins string
and then decisively showed them
that when 1t comes to bowling the
auxiliary just can't quite reach the
mark.
For the ladies Mrs. Catherine VIII
liams bowled high single Of 103 and
Mrs. Elmore Plat, high three
string total Of 281.
For the Legionnaires, old depend
able, Russell Hughes took high
string single Of 113 and high three
string total Of 305. Elmore Plat
almost reached the high single
score, but his 100 was A pins short.
The results Of this match therefore
enabled the Legionnaires to retain
possession of the loving cup do
mated by the auxiliary at the last
match.

BEHIND
THE SCENES
WASHINGTON
Many Feel Supreme Courts
Loss Of Power And Prestige
Is Inevitable and Near.
by KODNkv BUTCHER
Democrat Washington Core
spOndent

Washington, April g. witnesses
appearing before the Senate Judi
ciary committee In opposition to the
Presidents judiciary plan have
warned the country against accept
ing reform which might open the
way either to the German type Of
non-parliamentary Fascist govern
mentor the English system Of par
liamentary government.
Some Of the clearest thinkers on
the other side agree with them as to
the latter possibility, without adj
hitting that adoption Of the RooSe-
welt proposal would in any way
bring the country nearer dictator
ship.
Successfully within the next de-
cade, according to certain New Deal
strategists, we are likely to see:
Adoption Of the Roosevelt plan
in the near future-followed by
decline in the prestige and power
Of the court as an institution.
Ten or 15-year terms for Su-
preme Court justices, instead Of
life tenure as at present.
A constitutional m n d m ent
such as has been proposed by
Senator Burton *. Wheeler of
Montana, permitting Congress to
override Supreme Court negatives
Of its legislation.
Eventual removal Of the courts
power to declare laws uncOnsti-
tutional.
theoretically, that would leave
Congress supreme in the field Of
government aside from the execu-
tive branch and its veto power. 1t
would result in a parliamentary
from Of government more similar to
the English than the present Sys-
tenn. No English court can declare
an act of Parliament invalid.
Such predictions are made more
or less interesting and plausible by
the fact that you can find leaders
on both sides who agree that the
principle of the Wheeler amendment
will eventually get into the Consti-
tuition. Most conservatives oppose
that principle, although some may
pretend to favor 1t as means of
diverting support from the Presi-
dents plan. Some liberals fear It,,
believing congressional discretion is
not a sufficient safeguard against
abrogations of civil and religious
liberties.

Didn't Mean Wheeler

Recently this writer mentioned
the case of an unnamed senator who
was understood to be ready to de-
liver his own vote and that of his
colleague from the same state for
the Presidents plan If he were CIV
en- certain circuit court judgeship
for himself.
Some of Senator Wheeler's po-
litical enemies in Montana are said
to have whispered the story that
the senator described was Wheeler.
That rumor is untrue and absurd.
II Wheeler has any personal
ambitions in the court fight-say
concerning the presidency Of the
United Satisfactorily no one
can say they have motivated his
course. For one thing, Wheeler's
record as q fighting liberal stands
out over long period of eyars.
And, for another, Wheeler prob
ably isn't improving any 1910
chances by assuming leadership
in the battle against the ROOse-
welt plan.
Some critics of Wheeler have
whispered that he harbored jeal-
ousy and dislike Of Roosevelt. But
the Montana senator denied that
vigorously when he appeared be-
fore the Judiciary committee to at
tack the plan. He pointed out that
he was the first senator to come out
for Roosevelt's first nomination and
had preserved ian exceedingly
friendly relationship" with him.
