Among discrepancies cited by

cratic candidate was first re-
ported to have lost by 90 votes

Maitland's total, cutting the mar
gin to "a votes in the three pre-

of 1908 and 1908. McCurdy had
q total Of 903 for, Treasurer

have received 1913 votes for

D. Warfield 1880 for the same
post, a margin of a votes which
was changed in the official can
vass.

dates ran as sticker candidates

Senator Byrnes (D-SC) said
he saw no reason why naval
vessels should not escort freight
ers into the Red Sea if the need
for such action arose. but other
foreign relations committeeman
questioned whether the Navy
would attempt to protect ship
ping so far from home and
claimed there was no necessity
for such action at present.
In preparing for the commit
tees action on the Tobey con-
voy resolution, Senator Byrnes
said he intended to vote either
to table it or to lay it aside in
definitely. and administration
leaders disclosed they had OBJ
tanned proxies from Senators
Harrison .(D-Miss) and Wagner
(D-NY) for votes against con-
sideration of the proposal at
this time. Harrison and Wagner

The convoy question bobbed
up in the Senate yesterday when
Tobey said he feared that :'be-
hind the scenes" moves were
being made to use the Navy on
escort duty.
Barley promptly declared
that he did not think it "quite
fair" for Tobey and others to
express almost daily the fear
that before the Senate could
act "in q negative way on some
resolution" the President would
order something to be done
that may precipitate us into
war"
Tobey sought from Barley a
pledge to use his influence to
have the foreign relations COM
mittee report out the resolution.
Thereupon the Democratic lead
er challenged Tobey to ask the
Senate to discharge the commit
tee from considering it.
How much chance has a
SNOWFALL in hell?" Tobey re-
sponded holly.
II will say" Barkley replied,
"if the Senator compares the
Senate to hell and himself to q

The new product is applicable to
wood as we'll as concrete, can be
used on exterior as well as interiors,
and be applied over previously
painted surfaces as the other could
not.
Applied with a brush, like paint,
the coating comes in black, white,
tile red, stone gray, green, blue,
brown and concrete gray. The colors
are lightproof, waterproof and chem
ical resisting. In fact. one of the
chief advantages claimed for the
material is its resistance to alkali
and moisture, dread enemies of
paint on basement walls and floors.
Surfaces have to be dry at the time
1t is applied, but once it is on prop
erly, there is supposed to be nothing
to fear fro.2l moisture.
OF course, if the floor or wall has
cracks they should be repaired be-
fore the coating is brushed on. If
there is dampness due to water
pressure, no coating will give sure
fire protection, but dampness due to
capillary attraction, say the makers
of this coating, will not affect the
material.
The paint dries hard enough to
walk on in few hours, when drying
conditions are good, and will be oil
and grease-proof in "a hours After
48 hours the coating is said to be
resistant to gasoline and most
chemicals.
Sold in gallon and quart cans, the
rubber-baSe floor coating, just as
good for concrete or cement walls
in Easements, costs S495 a gallon
and s140 a quart; green, blue and
white slightly more. 1t comes ready
mixed and covers from 300 to 400
square feet to the gallon, depending
on porosity Of the surface.
Removable Windows.
Windows which come out of the
