' Washington, March 14th, 1^24.??-* —
-'Agfeeiii&ut was reached in the United
J States Senate to make the motion of
£ Senator Shipstead, of M innesota, to're-’
consider the vote of 37 0 35, by which
Walter‘L. Cohen, of Louisiana, nomi
nee of Prefcident Cooledge, for comptrol
ler of Customs at New Orleans, was re
jected, special Senate rejection on ac
count of “’’personal ob jections’* ! of
southern senators. The dissatisfaction,
both of the colored people at large and
earnest Republic ms, was assuaged
when President Coolidge and Chairman.
John T. Adams, of the National com
mittee, promptly demonstrated that
tuey are firm and hard behind C >hen.
/5 ,lt». isrihought thHt the reconsideration,
, juouou of Senatoi Shipstead is the re
sult of calm reflection of many who feel
that Cohen is right for the position, and
th re,,is a feeling of confide ce that e
yeitiually will receive the senai >rial
confirmation which lias so 10.. g been
denied him.
