Thereupon the Russian delegate said the Soviet government would not accept any such agreement that was not signed by Japan. 1 ROBINSON SENATOR ARTHUR who was renominated by the Republicans, will be opposed at the polls next fall by Sherman Mlnton, the selection of the Democratic state convention, Mr. Mlnton, a World war veteran.

Finally the committee reported the nomination favorably, - the only two opposing votes belna- those of "Cotton Ed" Smith of South Carolina and Henry D. Hatfield of West Virginia. The action of the committee assured Tugwell's confirmation by the senate, but the debate on the floor was unexpectedly long and the attacks on Tugwell were outspoken.

This was revealed In his special message to congress which told of the plans and recommendatlo n s he would submit to the next congress. He asked for no present legislation, but gave notice of the social experiments he proposes President to begin next win Roosevelt ter. The message discussed the three factors of housing, land and re source planning and old age and unemployment insurance. Expressing satisfaction over in relieving industry, agriculture, and unemployment, the President, asserting his right to chart social reforms, declared, "It is childish to speak of recovery first and reconstruction afterward." Taking up the housing problem, he said millions of dollars had already been provided to Improve living conditions, and voiced the hope that with passage of his housing program private capital would be stimulated to widen the scope of home building. Discussing planned control of the land, he declared that hundreds of thousands of families now live "where there Is no reasonable prospect of a living In the years to the delegates of the WHILE workers' union were gathering in Pittsburgh to vote on the threatened strike, President Roosevelt and his advisers brought forward a plan for an emergency law designed to avert the walkout. It was admittedly a temporary expedient to give the President an effective agency for the consideration of industrial disputes arising during the life of the NRA.
