think this is cheap attempt at in- ternational mischief making"
 Representative Brooks Hays of Arkansas said he also wanted to apologize to Lord Halifax. After all, Hays said, he travelled through Ar kansas, too.
 Rep. Jed (about- ut-to-become a. judge) Johnson of Oklahoma said he, too, was sorry about the Halifax episode.
 We hope that Lord and Lady Halifax cs'l forgive if they cannot forget.' he said.
 The acting Republican leader, Earl C. Kitchener, demanded a min- ute and used it to chide Monroney for saying what he said about Schwabe. Kitchener said there was a gentleman's agreement to take up nothing controversial while the other boys were on vacation. Now look.
 This made Monroney flush. He jumped up again and asked for an- other minute. The acting speaker, Rep. Jere Cooper of Tennessee, said nothing doing. The rules didn't al- low 1t. Monroney whispered to Rep. John H. Folger of North Caroli'1a, who asked for a minute. He got his minute. Then he yielded it to Monroney, who looked triumphant. He said he would have told Schwabe he was going to den- nounce him, except that Schwabe was in Oklahoma taking rest. He said furthermore that he defied Kitchener to find one word in his speech that ueeded to be expunged
 The House adjourned then, 29 minutes after the prayer with num- erous lawmakers looking unhappy. I hate to cut into your well-earned vacation, fellers, but I think you better hurry back here and take up the coyote situation.
