CHANGING DATE OF PRESI-

it had been put to a vote the chances

again bring this subject before the
House, The Committee on Judiciary
now has an opportunity to perfect its
resolution
We are not in sympathy with the
statement that much of the opposi-
son 10 the Henry resolution was
prompted by a desire on the part Of
another committee OF the House to re-
port a similar resolution. Chairman
Gaines, of the Committee on the Elec-
tion of President, Vice. President, and
Members of the House. Is as interested
in changing the date of Inauguration

it as imperfect. and he pointed out the
imperfect ions a. he saw them. Mr.
Gaines has gwen much study to this
subject He Is too big a man 10 op-
pose a resolution because his commit

II would seem that much Of the op-
position to the Henry resolution can

ker. Of the Committee on Judiciary.
