Farther down the line are men better
qualihed, in the opinion of most Of the
House. for the place. Mr.. Alexander
was slated for the dump.
But he viii not be dumped He Will
be appointed Chairman, according To
present calculations: not because he is
any more acceptable, but because TO
put him aside would be equivalent to
inviting him to become an iDSUrgant.
Mr.. Alexander wants the place and his
eaTneStneSS about il has conveyed 20
the Speakers lieuten2utS tt" Likelihood
of serious disaster tn them b he doesn't
get it.
In the opinion OF many pose students
OF the House situation, everything de
ponds on President raft If ne should
decide to support speaker Cannon, in
consideration Of concessions Regarding
his Legislative program, il is thought
the fight would soon fade away II
he keeps hands strictly off. the OppOSi-
ton thinks il can make a good fight
with a good chance 90 win. IF the Pres
ioent, finally. shall come out for the i'm
SurSent movement, and let his position
be known, then the Insurgents and Dem
OCrats think they have a good chance
TO win.
Breach Is Serious.
The breach between the Democrats
and the Speaker is a most serious thing
at this time The minority leader has
under Cannon been given the privilege
OF naming the Democratic members of
ali committees; and it was expected that
Champ Clark would accept this privilege
and be content not TO carry too far the
fight against the officer 50 liberal with
power and patronage. But Mr.. Clark 5
leadership OF the fight against the calen-
dar Wednesday rule, pies his refusal TO
introduce the resolution of thanks is
looked upon as equivalent TO a. declara-
ton Of war; Of real war, not the opera
bouffe article.
on both sides there will be the most
animated activity during the recess.
Propositions and counter propositions
are being made and considered among
various groups of Democrats and iusur-
gents. The latter are pointing out that
Representative Townsend OF Michigan
missed the chance of a lifetime 10 be
Speaker when he got cold feet in his
insurgency. Last session he was the
leader of the revolt He led it well and
ably. He was str yIrgly urged by many
Republicans to become a candidate FOR
Speaker. He was told that in a deaa-
lock he would have a fine chance 10 win.
Instead Of listening, Mr.. Townsend
came back TO Washington and presently
acquired the habit Of occupying the
chair. No man from the body of the
House has been SO much called TO pre-
side the past session IS he. He has had
numerous testimonials of recognition
and distinction from the Speaker. and
he has lined up with the Speaker S
forces. RumOr says he will likely be
chairman OF interstate commerce If the
Cannon forces control.
