He lost on two, once when the chair counted a quorum, and again after a march of the membership down the aisle, and the tellers reported one or two more than the necessary 216. On the - second march, however, Mr. Voigt stood by. the tellers, pad and pen cil .In hand. Thsre was no "repeating" and the effort of leaders to prevent a long roll all failed.
