If these same youths had clean, wholesome reccreation centres in which to spend their evenings, instead of hanging around street corners, pool rooms and other objectionable places, there is reason to believe some of these young men at least would be deterred from criminal careers."

The -up did appear until few hours before vote was not, taken yesterday afternoon. Senator Borah, Idaho Republican, then began working quietly upon some of the so-called independent group upon his side of the Chamber. He talked especially three Republicans, Frazier, Ladd and Brookhart, who only the day previous were voted out of the Republican Party, and to Senator McMasters, the new Republican from Dakota, and when the vote came all of these were lined up against Warren. On the Democratic side, Republicans had counted upon Underwood of Alabama, Glass of Virginia and Gerry of Rhode Island. But these three were absent from the chamber when the vote came.

When the first vote was completed the count stood at 40-40. Senator Reed, Pennsylvania, Republican, changed his vote from the affirmative to the negative so that later he move to reconsider. Parlin.mentary rules provide the no motion for reconsideration may he made unless by someone voting with the prevailing side. Dawes was sent for.
