CANNON Is NOW
READY To TALK
Of COMPROMISE

Washington. March 15.-Speaker Cannon
has pulled in his horns on the subject
OF statehood and IS now willing to talk
compromise Word was passed around
last night. pres lmably by authority Of the
speaker, that be is willing - consent
TO the Incorporation in the measure of a
provision permitting the people OF Ari-
zona and New Mexico 10 express them
selves by vote on the proposed Jointure.
This is the proposit ton that was en-
bodied in the Foraker amendment which
was adopted by the senate before 1t struck
from the statehood bill all reference to
Arizona and New Mexico
1t became evident early IN the day that
tho critical stage had been reac1ed on he
statehood question. There was some ugly
talk among house members over the deter
mination OF Speaker Cannon TO enforce
his will against the overwhelming senti-
ment in favor Of the admission OF Okla
homa and Indian Territory into the sister
hood OF states. and the speaker. II Is
understood, was warned that N he per-
sisted in his course he might put the
house organization 70 a test that II could
not stand.
This sort OF talk came from the me n
who worked with Mr.. Cannon to beat the
insurgents few weeks ago. and back OF
Il came an avalanche of telegrams from
nearly every state IN the union, urging
the speaker to beat a retreat.
The speaker has retreated to this ex-
tent: He now favors the reference OF the
bill 10 a committee on conference, the
house conferees to be instructed to vote
for referendum amendment. The
speaker has not reached the frame of
mind where he will consent to the accept
ance Of the bdll as Il came from the senate,
providing only for the admission OF Okla
homa and New Mexico.
The speakers turnabout on statehood
was the only tangible development today
in the statehood situation. The impress
sion prevails quite generally that at this
time the so-called insurgents have The
upper hand. A number OF representatives
who supported the omnibus bill when 1t
came UP in the house in the nrst instance
today declared their purpose to vote for
the adoption OF the senate bin.
The Republican representatives will hold
a conference on statehood today at
o'clock. Speaker Cannon and his lieu
tenants are somewhat concerned over the
outcome
