B0RAH SECURES EARLY
ACTION ON RESOLUTION
Matter Of Direct Election OF Senators
Made Unfinished Business by
the Senate.

WASHINGTON. May S.-Aftcr dispos-
ing OF technical parliamentary obstacles:
Senator Borah OF Idaho today succeeded
In having The senate agree TO consider
the house joint resolution 10 amend the
constitution 10 provide for the election
Of senators by direct vote OF the people.
The effect is TO make the resolution the
unfinished business and give il prefer
cnce.
The order was made on a rollcal. but
out Of seycnty-one votes only Senators
Brandegee. Burnham. GallinGer. Hey
burn and Penrose voted in the negative.
Mr.. Hepburn opposed MIR. Borah's motion
for the unanimous consent to take up
the measure on the ground that under
the senate rules the request was out of
order during the first two hours of the
sitting which is set apart for morning
business v The senate had met at
o'clock and il became necessary at 2;i5
y. m to recess until 4 o'clock.
When the senate reconvened MFR.
Borab moved consideration. There was
no discussion and the vote was almost
unanimous for the motion. This was due
TO willingness for early consideration of
the resolution and did not indicate that
the vote on its merits would be so pro-
nounced In its favor.
Mr.. Borah said he had no intention OF
inconvcniencing senators who desire TO
speak on the resolution.

NEW MEASURE IN DETAIL
Government Refuses to Accept
Proposals as Solution of the
Difficulty.

LONDON. May S.-Lord Lansdowne.
leader of the opposition in the house Of
lords. introduced today his bill for the
reform of the upper house. There was a
great audience in which were many dip
lomatS.
that an amendment to the constitution
of the house OF lords should proceed sim
utaDeously with reform In the, rela,,
tions OF the two houses. They desired
to demonstrate to the country that they
could provide an efficient second cham
Der which could be trusted 10 use its
powers fairly as between the great polit-
ical parties and faithfully to serve the
democracy and At the same time be
strong enough 10 resist the gusts OF pas
sion and prejudice with which all demo-
cracies were familiar.
They proposed a house TO consist of
$50 lords of parliament
No peer should hold his seat moro than
twelve years. but they would be eligible
for reelection, The peers themselves
would elect 100 members OF the peerage
possessing the statutory qualifications,
such as being present or former vice
roys, governors prlvy councillors. mem
bcrs OF the house OF commons, diplomats.
naval and military officials, heads Of
civil service departments, lord mayors.
proyosts etc.
A second contingent would consist of
100 members TO be elected from outside
the house Of lords by an electoral col
iege composed OF members of the lower
prised in the electoral districts into
which the country would be divided
The third section OF tho house. num-
bering 100 would be appointed by the
crown on the recommendation OF the cab
inet Princes OF tho royal blood would
retain their seats, also would two
archbshops. while FIVE bishops would be
elected. Including the lord chancellor
and the eX-lord chancellor there would
he sixteen lords. The bill provides that
peers who are not lords OF parliament
shall be elected by the house OF com
mons.
Under the measure introduced by Lord
Lansdowne, the power OF the crown 10
appoint. hereditary peers Is limited 10
five each year
Viscount Morley, who Immediately fol-
lowed Lansdownc. threw cold water On
the plan. He admitted that the author
OF the bill had taken Il bold and frank
course. but said the government ctuld
not accept the proposals as a solution Of
tho difficulty.
The bill passed is first reading.
Lansdownes bill goes further IN the
direction OF reform than the Liberals had
anticipated, but Will still give the Con-
servativcs majority In the upper house
