Henry Delaware Flood, Democrat, of Appomattox, was educated at Washington and Lew university and University a member of the Phi Beta of Virginia; Kappa fraternity and other fraternities; received the degree of LL.

Mr. Weeks then, reviewed the further legislative program of the agricultural bloc, characterising as "unwise" the pure wool bill. Declaring that the proposed law to regulate cold storage would "make the price of many articles food higher and describing the federal highway bill as being designed to onstruct roads purely local In character" for the benefit of "one or at best, few .individuals." the demand of the bloc for a representative of agriculture on the federal reserve board, Mr. Weeks said, was as worthy as would be a similar demand from "manufacturers, labor, .commerce, or any single great Industry.
