Text on back reads, "Senator Rush D. Holt, of W. Va., youngest Senator who fought for moths to gain his seat on the floor, today celebrated his 34th birthday. He is shown looking over a map and pointing out Alcide, New Brunswick, Canada where residents said they heard an explosion at about the time Thomas H. Smith, ocean flier, was due to fly overhead.
