Just at this writing tlie adjusted compensation hill and the tax reduction bill are struggling for precedence. Then are senators and representatives who any that the honus ran he granted end tax reduction secured along with It, but there are others who any that tlie thing "can't be did."

The senator inuile the error of Intimating that America ought to keep out of Kuroie In every way and whut he said sounded as If he wus asking the people of South Dakutu If they wanted their money to go to feed people over on the other side of the water.
