...After being Speaker in the Legislature and State Senator he went to Congress, to the U. S. Senate in 1927. His voting record suggests eccentricity yet shows a pattern: against war, racial injustice, Prohibition, Bonus, tariffs & embargoes, depreciated currency. War debts. He voted against the Wagner Act, the Guffey Coal Act, the Utilities bill, AAA, TVA, NRA, Cotton Control; for SEC, Neutrality, Pump Priming, fathered the Miller-Tydings Act for price control of trademarked goods.

...Mystic, Conn., the 14th annual exhibition of the Mystic Art Association opened this week at Association galleries on the banks of the Mystic River. Cut more closely to the traditional pattern of summer shows than any other, with tea served on Thursday and young villagers holding square dances in the gallery, the Mystic exhibition was nevertheless far from stuffy, included an excellent oil by Kenneth Bates, a cocktail-hour scene At Five (see cut) by Robert Philipp, whose Dust to Dust won first honorable mention at last year's Carnegie International...
