Earlier Meet of
Congress Backed
j •"_
Senate Endorses Norris
Amendment for Opening and
Inauguration in January.
Washington, March 19.—A step to
ward adding another amendment to
the ocnatitution was taken yesterday
when the senate. 63 to 7, adopted a
joint resolution to have presidents
inaugurated the third Monday in Jan
uary and new congresses go into of
fice the first Monday in January,
after election.
The resolution, which was offered
by Senator Norris, republican. Ne
braska, now goes to the house where,
as in the senate, a two-thirds vote is
necessary for adoption. If approved
by the house It will then go to the
states for ratification.
Explaining provisions of the pro
posed amendment Senator Noarts
In a statement said:
‘‘The congress elected in November
w ill go into office- on the first Mon
day in January following, and a ses
sion of congress will then begin. This
means that as soon as congress 3s
elected it will commence Its official
duties without delay instead of wait
ing 13 months before Its members are
actually sworn Into office as under
present conditions. This Yneans the
abolishment of the so-called ‘‘lame
duck” congress. The old congress
will have no session after the elec
tion. Not only will the people be
able to li^ivo their will expressed In
the election translated Into law with
out delay, but an old congress which
may have been repudiated Rt, the
election will have no further func
tion to perform.
Will Prevent "Joker” Laws.
"It abolishes the existing short ses
sion. Under present constltutienal
provisions a congress assembles in
December after election and run* un
til March 4 when it expires by limita
tion. It Is In thia so-called ‘short
session’ that all kinds of jokers creep
into the laws. The calendars of both
houses are clogged and everybody
knows that It Is a physical Impossi
bility to dispose of much Important
legislation pending. It is in the short
session that bad laws are put on the
statute books and desirable legislation
is lost in the rush. It is in the short
session that filibusters are effective
and a few determined men can block
desirable legislation simply by taking
up time.
Covers an Emergency.
Under the present constitution if
the people fall to elect a president
and the election is thrown into the
house it is the old congress that elects
the president and not the new. This
amendment will reverse conditions
and in such a case the president will
be elected by the congress fresh from
the people. Under present conditions
a congress that may have been re
pudiated elects a president who holds
office for four years.
“Under the existing constitution
If the iieople fail to elect a president
at election and it Is thrown into the
house and senate and if the house
and senate should under such condi
tions fail to elect a president there Is
no provision of the constitution which
provides who shall be president and
til eye Is no authority given to con
gress to provide by law wfio shall be
the acting president. Thia amend
ment confers upon congress the
power to provide by law- who shall
act as president in such an emer
gency.”’ _
Political Upset
in Sioux City
Sioux City. March 19. —Frank
Green and W. Stewart Gilman were
nominated by the voters of Sioux City
Monday to be candidates for mayor In
the final election March 31.
All members of the present city
council were nominated to run for re
election and the following were
chosen to oppose them: Paul Cald
well, Charles E. Wilcox. Charles
O'Shoness;/ and Milton Perry Smith.
The principal feature of the elec
tion was the "upset" of the political
dope by the nomination of Gilman
* over John A. Johnson, who was
touted ns an almost sure winner.
The total number of votes cast for
mayor .was 17,812, which was 1.432
less than the 19,244 ballots cast In
the municipal primary of 1922.
China Refuses Demands.
Pekin, March 19.—The negotiations
for recognition by China of the Rus
sian soviet government appear defi
nitely to have failed. The cabinet
president refused to approve the ten
tative agreement for recognition.

Since Birth, Now Talks, Hears
Deaf and dumb for 60 years, Mrs.
Nancy Splgle of Omaha, now talks
and hears. Mrs. Splgle who lives with
her daughter, Mrs. D. S. Finkensteln.
3309 Webster street, has been spend
ing several weeks with another daugh
ter, Mrs. H. H. Donsker of Kansas
City. It was in Kansas City where
Mrs. Spiglo talked to her daughters
and heard them answer for the first
time in her life. Long distance tele
phone messages were immediately
sent to two sons, one in South Bend,
Neb., and one it. Lincoln and to Mrs.
Finkensteln.
"My sister was so excited she could
hardly tell me about the miraculous
thing that had happened to our moth
er,” said Mrs. Finkenstein. "Sha told
me that mother had talked to my
brothers over the telephone. “We
expect to have a large reception In
Omaha when mother returns to cele
brate.
Mrs. Spigle, the daughter in Kansas
City told her sister, believes that she
is no longer deaf and dumb due to
the teachings of a healer whose lec
tures she had been attending. Mrs.
Spigle will go to Wichita, Kan., where
the healer will lecture, before return
ing to Omaha. A brother and sister
of Mrs. Spigle also were born deaf

Society Scofflaws
Target for Attack
Society women who think it en
honor to serve liquor at fashionable
dinners and who participate in •'wild”
parties, were bitterly assailed by Dr.
Mary Harris Arrriour last night in an
address at the W7 C. T. U. state con
vention in First Methodist church.
Thla class has no consideration for
tho welfare of the United States and
ia giving America a dark name, she
declared.
“The Georgia Cyclone,” as Mrs.
Armour Is known, gave the history
of the rum evil. "When election
time comes, vote right, then and
there, for the man or party that you
think will do the best work for the
cause for which you stand and fight,"
she declared. Crying after election
will do you no good. You must think
before you mark your ballot.
VThe men who evade the ISth
arinndnient are. marring the American
flag. The american flag for years
has stood for fair play and a square
deal to everyone, and at the present
critical stage it should bs respected*1
"The law of the United States is
true and clean. People of all nation
alities are equal. All these ignorant
people who disregard or evade the
constitution are turning traitor to
the stars and stripes.”
