With a Jubilant coalition of re publicans and democrats in com mand, the chamber refused, by a vote of 193 to 166, lo take the 11,950,000,000 measure up for debate.

Before the crowded chamber. his voice rising higher and higher, he said that to obtain recovery it is .necessary that "labor be em ployed and capital active, on the farm, in the mine and ia the counting house." Two Virginians Representa tives Woodrum and Robertson both assailed the measure. Wood- rum said it proposed a "revolu tionary departure" from the gov ernment's traditional method ef appropriating money. British Economist Held Bill Source Robertson declared that he be lieved the proposition came from a British economist, John Maynard Keynes, who was "unable to cell his own country on the theory of spending for recovery" and so came to America and "sold" Mar- riner S. Eccles, chairman of the federal reserve board. The vote that followed re- emphasized the split in democratic ranks and the smooth operation of the republican house machine bent on blocking the program. Not a single republican voted to have the bill considered. Joined with the 146 republicans who voted against consideration were 47 democrats. The 163 demo crats for taking up the bill were supported by three minor party members two Wisconsin pro gressives and the only American- laborite.
