It is more than interesting to note that among the outstanding Demo crats who did not endorse the Hoo ver plan for a moratorium on war ; debts and reparations were Repre sentative John N. Garner, of Texas, land Senator Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas. As everybody knows, Mr. Garner is the Democratic leader of the house and if the Democrats or ganize that body next session will be its Speaker. Mr. Robinson is the of ficial floor leader of the Democratic Senators. Senator Robinson has asserted that since the negotiations for a moratorium on international debts have been successful, President t Hoover should take another step and "back-pedal on his insistence for a tariff bill," which, the Sena tor contended, is largely responsible i for the domestic business depression. Then, again, there's the angle of a special session of Congress. There are reasons why it seems that Pres ident Hoover would be well advised to call a special session at once to act upon the postponement of war debts, although there is no reason to believe that he will do so. Enthusi asm over his plan for the relief of Germany and the restoration of prosperity is now at its height. No doubt that Congress would just now almost unanimously approve of his proposal, but by the next December* the time of the regular session, this enthusiasm may cool off. By that time a more exaggerated partisan view of what has taken place will probably exist.—Lenoir News Topic.
