Senator Norris, Independent, of

Heart Attack

Representative Samuel Davis Nc
Reynolds of Tennessee, chairman of
the House Foreign Affairs Commit
tee since 1882, died at 6:15 am.
today at his residence, 1851 Arcadia
place NV. He was 81 years old.
DR.. George w. Calver, Capitol
physician, said death was caused
by heart attack.
Ill since last fall, Representative
McReynolds had been unable to
attend any sessions of the present
Congress. He had spent months in
Naval Hospital and only recently
was permitted to return to his
Washington home.
Mr.. McReynolds, a close personal
friend of Secretary of State Hull,
was active in promoting admins
tration legislation bearing on for
eign affairs. His absence from the
floor at this session was regarded
as a major factor in preventing en-
actment of new neutrality legisla-
ton in the form desired by the ad-
ministration.
A veteran of 16 years in the
House, affable and popular, Mr.. Nc
Reynolds welded a large influence
through personal touch with House
members. He guided the original
neutrality legislation through tor
tuous course in the House, and
subsequent measures which modified
and extended it.

BULLETIN.

After a conference with Presi.
dent Roosevelt, Secretary of
State Hull announced today that
in the interest of peace and
security" the administration
would continue to urge adoption
of its neutrality program. The
statement. issued about two
hours after the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee voted to
postpone neutrality action, indi-
Gated to many that the Presi-
dent had no intention of per-
mitting the committee action to
stand in the way of new legisla-
ton before adjournment if he
can swing a majority of the
Senate to his view.
The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee by vote of IL to II to-
day determined to postpone action
on neutrality legislation until "the
next session of Congress.
Among the dozen committee men,
bers voting for postponement were
Senators Gillette, Democrat, OF
Iowa. and George, Democrat, OF
Georgia, whose positions previously
had been regarded as doubtful
Both were administration targets in
last summers purge"
The committee action was re-
garded as final and definite by
Chairman Pittman, who said he saw
no prospect whatever of action by
Congress on changes in the Neutral
ity Act at this time.
The vote came as a crushing dis
appointment to administration hopes
for forcing action at this session in
the hope of obtaining repeal of the
arms embargo provision of the pres
ent law.
Barkley May Seek Action.
However, there were reports that
Majority Leader Barkley would seek
to take the issue to the floor despite
the committee action. He could do
this if he could get Senate approval
of a motion to discharge the COM
mittee from consideration of the
legislation.
Senator Barkley declined to say
Immediately what he would do. He
commented only that "the vote
speaks for ITSELF
Senator Pittman said he did not
expect such motion to be made
and Senator Minton of Indiana. the
Democratic whip, said any decision
about forcing the measure out of
committee probably would be made
by President Roosevelt.
There was a possibility that repeal
or amendment of the Neutrality
Act might be sought by means of a
rider to some other legislative pro-
posal on the Senate floor.
Hull and Roosevelt Confer.
Shortly after the committee voted
Secretary of State Hull conferred
with President Roosevelt. He made
this comment on the postponement
decision.
Il want to analyze and confer be-
fore make any statement. This is
far more important question than
many people realize"
Talk of early adjournment and the
likelihood of a special session imme-
diately sprang up. 1t grew out OF
the possibility that world events
might develop in such a manner as
to make neutrality action advisable
before next session.
Senator Pittman pointed out that
the motion adopted by the commit
tee did not set a specific time for
taking up neutrality legislation, but
merely postponed consideration until
the next session.
Obviously, he said, that meant neu-
trality legislation could and would
be taken up by the committee if a
special session of Congress were
called.
