FINAL DEBATE ON
STATEHOOD BILL
Senator Foraker First to Take the
Floor-Beveridge VIII Con-
clude Discussion.

The general roundup of the debat t.,
On the joint Statehood bill began in the
Senate today Immediately after the rou-
tine business, when Mr.. Foraker (Ohfo)
took the floor to discuss the amendment
which he Will offer later, providing
among other things that the selection
Of delegates TO constitutional conver-
tion shall be left TO the electors OF. each
of the two Territories Of Arizona and
New Mexico out of which it is pur-
posed 70 form one State.
Ar. Beyeridee Gnd.). chairman Of the
Committee on Territories, which has the
Ipeasure in charge. viii close The gen
eral debate before today's adjournment
When Mr.. Foraker took the floor ne
declared his entire sympathy with the
Idea OF joining Oklahoma and Indian
Territory IN one State, as their ultimate
union had always been contemplated.
But he said he would oppose the union
OF Arizona and New Mexico because the
people of these Territories opposed such
union.

For VesfibuLed Cars
Times Efforts in This Direction and the pu-

saon in City Today.

All Washington is talking about The
Times editorial advocating vestisuled
cars for the protection of motormen.
On all sides the unselfish work Of T.
o. Pulizzi, Miss Puizzi, and Mss Brecht
in circulating the petition asking that
the matter be urged before Con gress, re-
ceives unstinted praise.
The Commissioners of the District are
unanimously in favor of the passage by
Congress of a law compelling street
railway companies operating in the Dis
trict to place vestibules on al cars for
use in severe weather, as advocated by
The Times editorial and the signers o.
the Pulizz: petition.
Several bills providing for vestfbules
have been introduced in Congress from
time to time, but none at the present
session.
The clause in the Commissioners bill
dealing with control by the Commission
ers of the street railways provides,
however, that no car shall be run in the
city until it has been approved by the
Commissioners This, the Commission

deal with the vestibule question. and
they would uHhesitatingly order Vesti-
bules on all ears operating in Washing
