on the contrary Is likely to lead to a bet
terment of legislative conditions. In the
hurly-burly of three months session,
crowded with the regular routine Of the ap-
preparations. much is accomplished under
cover to the detriment of the public inter-
ests. Congress has no time for delibera-
ton. 1t Is as though a scramble for re-
suits had set in, often with a lack of re-
sponsibility on the part of individual
members who have been elected to stay
at home" The most conscientious Presi-
dent cannot always prevent this spectacle
by exercising the veto power, for the ques-
tlonable items are more often than other
wise cunningly fastened to appropriation
bills which must be approved in bulk or not
at all. Legislation by riders Is the more
easily accomplished during the hurry of a
short session than IN a long session when
there is no demand for haste and the
temptation and the opportunity are both
lesSened
So it would appear that there Is merit
rather than demerit In the plan to prolons
the short session by changing the iuaugu-
ration date. If there Is difficulty now about
framing a non-partisan amendment ac-
complishing both of the proposed changes
and only non-partisan measure can COM
mand two-thirds vote-let the Inaugural
ton date plan be carried into effect the
legislatures willing. and thus postpone to
another time the solution of the problem
growing out of the present thirteen months
lapse between the election and the conyen-
ing of Congress. Postponement will not
lessen it's difficulties, but If the Inaugural
ton date amendment Is meanwhile adopted
THIS separation may permit clearer view
Oh the case. And incidentally no serious
harm Will be done by granting the over
"heiming demand of the people for more
propitious date for their chief national
ceremonial
