term probably will be*only for '
a day .but the ceremony crowned with c
success the efforts of the 87 year clu <
woman to '"blaze the path for Amor- *<

it was indicated that she would be I
content to step a?ide tomorrow in fa- c
vor of Walter F. George, who was '<
elected November 7 as her successor (
to fill the unexpired term of the lite t
Senator Watson to which vacancy i
Mrs. Felton was- appointed last Sep- c
tember. i J
The seating of Mrs. Felton attract- 'i
ed a crowd to the' senate. She was 1
showered with congratulations.
When the was directed to proceed 1
to the rostrum to tike the oath of of- <
lice, her face broke into a smile. On i

gia, and lifting her gown daintily, ;
she walked down the center aisle and 1

Senator Harris nudged her arm. <
however, and she then r:!:.ed 0'lU- <

I agreement cf the senate leaders to ]
! interpose no objection in the face of :
ipossible technic:! precedents as to j
j her status after the election on Nov- ]
j ember 7 of her successor.
j The principal delay was due to an
| address cf Senator Walsh, democrat, i
Montana, in support* of her claim. !
! This address went int.-) the precedents
involved and -it first .<?ave the impres- 1
; sion that the Montana senator was 1
: opposing Mrs. Felt en's claim. But 3
'later Mr. Walsh swung: into strong 1
j support of her pos'tion. declaring
! i.hat her title was clear anci that 1
| granting it should not .be considered a
favor or a chivalrous act. ,
At no time did Mrs. Felt on exhibit
| any nervousness, .sitting with hands j
foldsd in her lap and with "eyes" on I
the Montana senator. She arrivjii a ;
: half hear before the senate convened ?
' ind took the r.oa: of the late Senator
l
Watson after g.'vnig hev wraps to a t
senate page and seeing thai tT>ey ;
were hung in the Democratic cloak ;

The address of Senator Walsh was .
; broken by the joint session in the :
' house chair,'; er for the President's
message and Mrs. Felton attended. ;
iShe then returned to the senate i
I "where Senator Wairh concluded his j
'address and she wa:' sworn ir. After
'receiving the oath she returned to ,
her seat on the floor and watched the
