SENATE AND DAWES WILL CLASH SOON (Continued from Pa One.) jhouored custom of swearing in new senators In small groups, t Administration leaders during .the brief special session of the sen ate last March wero able to hold off any open und vltrolic attacks on Mr. Dawes from the floor such las some sf-nator. had planned, but l hey expect some efforts at the '"hazing" of the vicevpresldent dur ing the next few monihs. j (Julf l Widened The gulf which was opened be Jtween the vice president and some j senators on March 4 has been wld 'ened by the cumpuign he has con cluded during the summer in tho Istates of some fccnutors who come 'up for reelection next year. These senators naturally nave not taken kindly to this campaign and they cun be counted upon to oppose the vice president in his rules fight with all of the vigor and influence at their command. Mr. Dawes has some support In the senate itself for a modification of the rule under which a single senator at the . close of a session can block legilotion or even at I any time In the session long delay u final vote by means of a filibust er. j Senator Curtii of Kansas, the ' Hepubllcnn floor leader, and Hen 'utor Underwood of Alabama, a former-Democrat leader, favor a change In the rules, hut they con cede that there is un overwhelming sentiment In the senate agatmd any change that will put a check on the right of senators to speak as long und us often a they may de dre on uny subject.

If you do, it is good value. No sane merchant o manufacturer would continue to spend good money advertising poor merchandise.
