Champ Clark of Missouri, the leader of the
Democrats, loves his joke and II takes an occa-
sion that is worth while before he rouses him
self to anger. When Champ Clark does get
mad he gets mad" is the expressive way In
which a Democratic colleague of the minority
leader put the matter recently. There was an
exhibition of how mad Champ Clark get at
the time when he was trying hold his Demo
cratic colleagues In a solid line In favor OF a
change In the rules governing house procedure.
This at the time when some OF the In
surgents. in connection with the Democrats

Calendar Wednesday. II at a time long pri-
to the fight which ended In the removal of
the speaker from the committee on rules
The Democratic leader found that he could
not control all HIS party colleagues. and he had
suspicion that some of them knew that they
were to get committee preferment at the hands
of the speaker provided they deserted the Dem
ocrauc leader In the time of need. One New
York Democratic member, with others
from different parts of the country. deserted

publican majority does not think proper. Mr..
Mann keeps an eye on amendments to the at,pro-
priation bills, and all kinds of things they
come before the house. 1t is he who objects to
the consideration of many small bills when
unanimous consent unquestionably would secure
passage for them. This makes him In a sense

want TO get something through. and can only get
action under unanimous consent.
