Follette delegations fight into every newspaper headline in the Mun by yesterday. With the of Ommittee room crowded with newspaper men and visitors. Gross sat silent when senator Smoot of Utah politely kicked out the Public and the press. Apparently Gross preferred to make his fight for Public discussion of the platform inside the locked doors of the committee room Nenee Only echoes of it could reach the outside.
