Amendments to Be Killed on the Floor in Senate

Negotiations stalled with no votes taken as Secretary Knox urged the panel to rely on the treaty terms. Democratic Underwood attacked tariff policy while Longworth defended the board, with Payne and other Republicans opposing. Resolutions calling for investigations into Jew discrimination in the armed services were introduced, and the Lorimer election inquiry committee received senate approval to begin work.
