AMENDING THE CONSTITUTION.

Representative Ponad,. Of Wisconsin,
introduced a resolution last Spring for
an amendment to the Constitution of the
United States, limiting the Presiden-
I tial term to six Years, and making the
incumbent of the Presidential Chair
ineligible to ssconl consecutive term.
The resolution also proposes to extend
the terms ct Congressmen from two to
three years. 1t is stated that Mr..
Pound will call up and press for passage
this resolution at the present session OF
Congress. In support of it he. asserts
that the President is endeaxoring for
at least two years OF his term to inn
prove his chances of denomination, or
if be is not a candidate for reelection
to furthering the Interests of his party,
and that the usefulness of members Of
Congress is destroyed by the, limited
time they ara electsl to serve. In proof
of this he refers to the pagss of the Con-
gressional Record, which are tiled with
speeches, designed to influence nomi-
mating. conventions rather than TO adj
vance the interests of the cedntry As
the resolutiod will have to, be approved
bY two thirds OF the members of both
Houses of Congress and ratified by the
Legislatures of three-fourths of the
States. before it can be embodied in the
Constitution, it is not likely to become
part of the fundamental law Of the
land, for some years to CONS; if at all.
Its adoption would end for even the
third term business, as President
wenld notvbe eligible for a. second term
until six years after the close of his
FIRST term, and some twenty foar years
womb have to elapse from the time of
Presidents first election before he
would. be eligible unde, the proposed
amendment FOR third term. At this
rate a person. OF the constitutional age
to be elected. PRESIDENT would be in his
dotage before. he could become thiDd
term PRESIDENT.
