Warren Nomination Faces Second Senate Rejection Bid
In Washington on March 16 the Republicans plan to block Charles B. Warren's nomination as attorney general with a second Senate rejection, then seek a session long enough to permit another White House name. Leaders say the recess move does not boost Warren's chances and note the fate depends on tomorrow's ballot where a three to six vote margin is expected. Warren's fate and possible acceptance of a recess appointment remain uncertain as Coolidge stays in the capital with him.
