Prolonged Senate Session Ends Without Key Bills
In Washington D C a special session adjourned after a turbulent day as lawmakers failed to pass a deficiency bill for first year pay and government expenditures including the bonus and reclamation funds. The House kept working until 7:07 p.m. to allow the Speaker to sign last minute bills amid stalled action and accusations of clock-stopping to violate a session-ending resolution. Western senators resisted the package and the day closed with no final action on the appropriation measures.

Lodge Dropped by Own State as Next Power
Cleveland June 7 Through action of the Massachusetts delegation en route to the convention Senator Henry Cabot Lodge will be removed from the power he long wielded at Republican conventions. The Massachusetts delegation will elect Governor Cox and chair and Congressman Frederick H. Gillett speaker of the house as its representative on the resolutions committee. If this is done Lodge will be submerged as a factor in party deliberations and likely throned in the administration’s Senate leadership will fade. The piece notes Massachusetts figures and Coolidge allies, with Warren rewarded as ambassador to Mexico and Gillett named to draft the party platform.
