HAS NO CHANCE IN THE SENATE Judiciary Committee Votes Adversely on Nominee for Cabinet Job. RULES ARE BARRIER Coolidge Summons Borah to Make Final Plea, but Is Told Confirmation Is Impossible. iAasotUted Pnaa Leaned Wli.) WASHINGTON. Mar. 13. An adverse report on the nomination of Charlea B. Warren to be at torney general waa ordered today by the senate judiciary committee. All of the democrats and sena tors Borah of Idaho and Non-la of Nebraska, republicans, voted today against a favorable report. The vote of Senator Borah was ' cast by proxy, the Idaho senator being: at the White House, where he had been summoned by Presi dent Coolidge. Despite the president's decision to call some of the republican op ponents of confirmation Into con ference and make a personal ap peal to them, many of the party regulars saw little hope of favor able action on the nomination, which once has been rejected. Senator Borah told Mr. Coolidge frankly he saw no chance of con firmation. The committee vote today fol lows: For a favorable report: Cnm- mln,, Iowa; Ernst, Kentucky: Spencer, Missouri; Means, Colo rado; Han-eld, Oklahoma, Deneen, Illinois, and Olllett, Massachusetts all republicans. Against a favor able report: Borah, Idaho: Norrls, Nebraska, republicans; Overman, North Carolina: Reed, Missouri; Ashurst. Arizona; -Walsh Mon tana; Caraway, Arkansas: King, Vtah, and Neely. West Virginia, democrats. Senator Overman previously had voted for confirmation both In the committee and in the senate. The constitutional right of the president to resubmit the nomina tion was questioned by Senators Reed and Walsh, and most of the committee session, lasting an hour and a half, was devoted to argu ment on that point. The question was not brought to vote as the senators wanted addi tional time to consider it. Chairman Cummins took the po sition that the president was fully within his rights. - Senator Walsh offered thi reso lution: "Resolved, that In the opinion of this committee: "(1) The President of the United States' Is without constitutional right or authority to submit to the senate a nomination for public of fice theretofore at the same ses sion rejected by the senate. "(2) The rules of the senate as fundamental principles of parlia mentary law forbid the considera tion by the senate of a nomination so resubmitted. "(3) It is incompatible with the dignity of the senate to entertain a nomination so sunmiitea, wiih .n ..Iverae renort from the I committee, opponent will - --;-t. -ill hold parliamentary whip hand during the fight on the floor. Senator Walsh will present the report. Further examination of authori ties today led many senators to the belief that the president could (Continued on page 2.)

He could find plenty of eggs In the country but It was necessary to take the "nog" with him In the ear. Unfortunately the automo bile enroute bumped into another and a state traffic officer arrest ed the party. He found the li quor. The driver pleaded guilty before a justice of the peace to violation of the act, but Insisted that he wasn't drunk, and yester day the same plea was made to the governor by the man's-wife. The magistrate was marnnnlmnii. and inflicted only part of the pen- j requirea Dy law, namely the 8100 fine. He neither sent the man to prison nor confiscated the car.

Ore., March 1 Zoologists at the Oregon Agricul tural College laboratories have rallied to the support of the Los Angeles museum curator who claimed that the snake is the orig inal radio fan. The snake's forked tongue was the original aerial, this authority declares, used long before Mar coni was ever beard of. In detect ing suspicious noises. Perhaps he kept tab on things In the Garden of Eden with bis tongue. When the rattlesnake sleeps his tongue Is Idle, but when awake, his forked tongue is tuning in on everything. His tongue takes the place of his ears. Snakes have no ears In the common sense of the word. Many Insects have similar de vices for hearing. The grasshop per, local scientists point out, carries his ears on tho first scge ment of his abdomen. Other in sects wear them on their Ieg. The auditory principle is the same In each case sensitive nerves in forming the brain, which classi fies the sound, just as in the case of human being. EX-KAISER'3 WIFE ILL BERLIN, March 13.
