The stage was set for Senate

131a Hour Session.
During a 1872 hour session that
filled galleries to overflowing last
night, the Senate alternated be-
tween long speeches and sudden and
sometimes unexpected action on
amendments to the bill.
After an opposition speech by

who kept spectators in almost con-
stant laughter for an hour, the
presiding officer at the time. Senator
Williams, Republican. of Delaware,
quickly called for a vote en- a pend
