They bitterly attacked william

ton in a recent speech that no

Joining in the assault were Sen-
ators Wheeler tDl of MOntana.

of Idaho.
Referring to the contention Of

Taft declared the unprecedented
measure gives President Roosevelt
power to carry on an undeclared
war" and added:

conduct such q war without be-
ginning to shoot"
To escape that pitfall, Wheeler
urged:

to put the program into high speed

Majority Leader Barley reaf-
firmed his previous forecast that

claims that the opposition forces
