FnAIlKHiG STAL1P GOODJUGGESTIQI! But It Will Not Reduce the Expenses of U. S. Post ' Office Department.
POPULAR ELECTIONS
Rep. Lloyd Thinks People Should Elect Members of Upper Branch.
(American News Service) Y SIDNEY ESPEY. Washington, Dec. 24. The suggestion that the Poatofflce Department laaue a special franking stamp for use of official letters mailed by senators and members is not a bad Idea," said a member of the House Committee on
postofflces and postroads today, "but
It will hardly have the effect of lessening the amount of free malL " It Is not many years that we have had the privilege of franking our official malL As I recall It, tho author ot the law was
Representative James D. Richardson, of Tennessee. He was chairman ot the House Committee on printing at
the time he introduced bis resolution to extend the franking privilege to
senators and members. He pointed
out that mout of such, mail was ot an official character. In that it required
correspondence with the executive departments, and that It tho constituent had written direct to a department his letter would be answered under a frank. He aluo showed that correspondence on matters pertaining to congress and the departments was a
tax on some members, and as nearly all mall going out ot the House and
senate was ot official character, It
should go under frank. He made It
clear, however, that the franking prlv
liege was not to apply to personal
correspondence. The resolution was
adopted by the House and senate by
practically a unanimous vote. It may be," added tho committee member,
"that the personal correspondence
feature ot the law la not strictly ob
served, and the Postmaster-General believes that his special stamp sugges
tion. It used, will be taken as an authority for the issuance of the special
franking stamps for all official mat
ter sent out by congress. I fall to
see how It would correct any abuse,
but It would add some thousands of
dollars expense in printing stamps
Come years ago each department of
the government had its particular
stamp. The White House was not an exception. As I recall it the White House stamps were styled "executive
stamp." and were of a series of six. Thew were in great demand by stamp collectors. Hut the department stamps
were abolished by congress in the in
terest of economy, and to faclllate
handling of official mall in the post'
offices of the country. I doubt If the House at this session will make any

change In the franking privilege, as suggested by the Postmaster-General." "Just after the holiday recess I will make another effort to obtain a vote on my opinion, promising an amendment to the constitution providing tor the election ot senators ot the United Statesc," said Representative Lloyd, of Missouri, chairman of the Democratic congressional committee today. "This resolution has been favorably reported to the House and la my judgment, It represents the wishes of the people. If the House refuses to permit a vote to be taken at this session, you may depend on it that the next House will pass It by a large majority. A number of states have adopted the primary system, whereby candidates for United States senator are voted for directly, members ot the legislature chosen at the same election voting for the candidate receiving the majority of the vote ot the people. I feel confident that the passage of the House of my joint resolution would have a wholesome effect on those states that have not yet adopted the primary system of electing senators. I doubt if anyone would question how the people of certain states would vote for some senators who are candidates to succeed themselves."
. The last amendment to the rules adopted by the House the day before final adjournment last June has been fruitful in adding to the calendars ot the House. It was known as the Clark amendment to the rules, the
purpose of which is to place In the
hands ot the voting majority the power to discharge a committee from consideration of any bill or resolution that had been pending in a committee long enough to have been considered and reported to the House. The complaint has always been that many bills and resolutions of national importance were smothered in committee and that
it was impossible to get a bill out if
the chairman was against it This condition is one of the principal cause
ot the Insurgents' fight on the rules
ot the House. Under the Clark amendment thirty-eight motions to discharge committees are on the calendar, and It they could be taken up in their
regular order, the committees dis
charged, and the bills brought before the House for consideration, there would be no time remaining at this
session to consider any other legisla
tion. Seven of the measures deal with the tariff. They were Introduced in
the House last June. A number of them provide for placing food products including meats, on the free list, and also a reduction on the tariff on the woolen schedule. Members who have entered motions to discharge committees from consideration of certain bills say they will get together within a few weeks for the purpose of agreeing on a program, and making a
test of the efficacy of this amendment.
Representative Sereno E. Payne, of
New York, secretary of the Ways and
Means Committee, does not conceal
his contempt for the proposed permanent tariff commission. The other day, during a hearing ot the bill to create this tariff commission, Chair
man Payne remarked that he took no
stock In the statement that a tariff
commission would be able to take
the tariff out of politics, or there could
be such a thing as a non-partisan com
mission to frame tariff a bill when
the constitution expressly provides
that bills raising revenue must originate in the House of Representatives.
This opinion is generally Ehared by
the Democrats. The permanent tariff
commission scheme is regarded as an
attempt to create additional patron age for the benefit of lame ducks.
