PLAN SAID TO Be FAVORED.

Washington. March l1-It is proposed
a device enabling representatives to vote
and have their votes recorded and count
ed and displayed by electricity. IL would
insure accuracy and save time.
Every time a roll call Is taken in the
House IT costs the people of the United
States approximately $1,000 during a short
session Of Congress
The gross expense OF maintaining the
House of Representatives is about s5.-
100000 per annum Counting 100 days in
a short session, the expense amounts TO
$4,000 day OF not more than five hours
length or 5000 an hour. The time con-
sumed i'm a roll call is about Is minutes.
Al the present time there are 357 mem
bers OF the House. Cnder the new APP
portionment there will be SS9 members
The method of roll call now in vogue Is
for the reading clerk 10 call the name of
each member. At the conclusion of the
call another call is made. and the names
of those not responding the first time
are called
During this proceeding there is con-
fusion, so that the reading clerk is usual
ly compelled to call each name twice.
and time is lost in ascertaining whether
the member has responded
The proposition of an electrically trans
mitted roll call originated in the mind OF
Representative Peter J. Otey OF Virginia.
He was informally encouraged to investi-
gate the project, it being understood
that favorable report would be follow
ed by formal acceptance on the part OF
the House.
