ROOT OPPOSES DIRECT
ELECTION OF SENATORS

Washington, Feb. 11.-Opposing ali
suggestions looking to change in
the manner of electing United States
senators, Mr.. Root, of New York ad
dressed the Senate on the resolution
providing for election by direct vote
OF the people.
Opposes Change.
MT Root said he would not have
senators elected by direct vote. nor,
II they were to be so elected. would
nave control of such elections trans.
1erred from Congress to the various
State legislatures. For Congress to
abandon jurisdiction over senatorial
elections would be equivalent. he said
to the Government surrendering it's
power to maintain itself.
Declaring that the principal reason
given for the change to be the corrup-
ton OF State legislators, he said that
a more fundamental change should be
made than is proposed. He would go
to the root of the trouble by so puri.
Tying politics as to obtain better ma
terial in the legislatures.
Ii the people would look properly to
the selection OF legislative candidates
he was sure there would be compara-
lively little complaint concerning the
election of Senators by legislative &C
ton, and he was sure in that event
the agitation for direct election would
gradually disappear.
Beveridge Replies.
Senator Beverage made reply in de-
tail to Mr.. Roots arguments. No ad-
vance, the Indiana Senator said, had
ever been undertaken that was not op-
posed by those who saw great danger
in the change proposed. Much of this
opposition came, he continued, from
men of sound type of mind, but he
believed it to be due to fear. and he
declared that no man could have been
found who could so we'll gather to-
gether these forebodings as could the
New York Senator.

CONDITIONS
IN CHINA SET FORTH

Washington, Feb. 11.-Unless re-
lieved, two million people in China
will die of starvation. This is ca
lamity predicted by American Consul
General Wilder, at Shanghai. in a
cablegram received today by the
American National Red Cross Society.
The consul general appeals for quick
assistance for the suffering people,
and says that a half million dollars
is needed Immediately. There will be
no crops until the end of May, and
Chinese relief is inadequate, he adds.
Scenes Horrifying.
Mr.. Wilder says the scenes in the
famine district are horrifying.
Children are being given away by
the afflicted people, dead lie by the
roadside, and the misery of the suffer
ers is being increased by severe cold
and snow.
The famine area stretches over a
territory of 300 by $50 miles. The
Shanghai relief committee, which has
been formed to aid the starving in
habitants, is trustworthy, the consul
general adds.
Red Cross Busy.
The Red Cross cabled today to China
$4,000 contributed by John D. Rookie
Teller. Red Cross committees through.
out the United States are collecting
supplies to be sent to the stricken
people on an army transport from
Seattle.

POPULAR ELECTION

Grand Rapids, Mich, Feb. 13.-The
election of United States senators by
direct vote of the people is favored
by former President Theodore Roose-

should be SO amended as to provide
for popular election.
In Lincoln day speech here Col.

amendment.

of progressives are agreed is that

judgment, be so amended as to pro.

Asserting that the present method
of electing senators was relic of old
times and should be remedied, the col
onel also declared himself in favor of
abolishing the electoral college in the
election of presidents.
But while he believed in the cleo
ton of senators by direct vote, he
did not favor any policy which would
take away from the federal govern
ment ''any particle of the control
which it now has regarding the cleo

Col. Roosevelt in his address also
urged the adoption of the proposed
reciprocity treaty with Canada.
Col. Roosevelt's subject was elm
