EXPLAIN CAPITOL'S ATTITUDE

SENATOR HOLLIS TO SPEAK IN UNION TONIGHT ON GENERAL POLITICS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Senator Henry French Hollis '92 will speak in the Living Room of the Union this evening at 8 o'clock. His address, "From One Senator's View Point," will reveal something of the attitude of Washington towards general affairs, which is rather different from that of the rest of the country. Following his graduation in 1892, Senator Hollis studied law for a time at the Harvard Law School, but finished his legal education under private instruction. Upon his admission to the Bar of New Hampshire in 1893, he entered state politics, affiliating himself with the Democratic party. As New Hampshire is a strongly Republican state, his success has been remarkable. He was elected to the United States Senate on the Democratic ticket in 1913, and is now one of the most influential of the younger senators, having served on several important committees.
