listener from the outside,- It seemed
that the time wasted In talk wns suffi
cient for the translating and printing
of the bills. Mr. Ilussel, who signed
hlx name to the repotts under tho
words "1 do not concur," said nt ono
stage during Mb talk on what the
government should do bbout loans, that
he did not believe In borrowing any
money nt all.
