Resolution Adopted by Up
per House of Illinois Leg
islature Calls for Another
Bribery Investigation.
HELM COMMITTEE
IS NOT EXTENDED
Effort to Have Body Con-
tinue After Adjournment
Fails; Report Says Lori
mer Elected by Bribery.

Springfield, ILL.,, May 1S.-The ILL
nois senate today adopted a resolution
asking that the United States senate
reopen the Lorimer investigation.
This action was taken following rec
concentrations of the republican steer
ing committee of the senate. Efforts
TO extend the life of the Helm commit
tee to May 81 we're defeated when the
presiding officer ruled out of order the
resolution calling for this extension.
Senators Jones and Hurburgh ap-
pealed from the chairs decision but
lost their move by vote of 80 to s. 1t
was the plan Of the Helm committee
to give Senators Pemberton and Brod-
eriok a hearing after sine die ad-
journment OF the legislature and to re-
port It's further finding to the senate
that the senate had no power to extend
the committees life after sine die ad-
journment.
The ruling Of the presiding officer
practically ends the Helm committee.
Helms Two Resolutions.
Senator D. w. Helm, chairman Of the
senate bribery investigation commit
resolutions, one requiring that the
United States reopen the Lorimer
investigation and the other to extend
the life Of the Helm committee until
May 81, for the purpose of continuing
its inquiry into charges of bribery
and corruption made against Senator
Stanley G. Pemberton and John Brod-
erick.
dfoS al c@1l IJo1
lions, Senator Richard j. Barr, OF
Joliet offered an amendment to the
first resolution which stipulates that
the election Of Lorimer would not have
occurred had members of the senate
voted in accordance with the results
of the primary elections in which ex-
Senator Albert ]. Hopkins received the
highest vote Of the people.
The amendment is said to be aimed
at Senator Walter Clyde Jones and
others who failed to stand by Hopkins
in the famous senatorial deadlock of
1909, In which Lorimer was elected.
When the resolution extending the
life OF the Helm committee was Of
fered Lieut.. Gov. John G. Oglesby rul-
ed that it sought to extend the COM
mittee's life beyond the sine die ad-
journment.
Senator Jones Immediately appealed
from the chairs ruling. Several men,
bers thereupon jumped to their feet
and demanded roll call which was
granted by the presiding officer.
Before the roll call Senator Helm
made brief statement concerning
the Helm committees report. He de-
clared that 1t would be unfair to Sen
ator Pemberton and Frederick to Of
fer a resolution calling for their ex-
pulsion until after they had been given
hearing before the committee 1t
was for this reason that Helm asked
that the committees life be extended.
Senator Barr then offered substi-
tute to the resolution extending the
committees life.
The substitute called for the immed-
fate dropping of the Pemberton and
Broderick cases by the senate.
Hopkins Boilers Criticised.
The Barr amendment to the other
resolution condemns the failure of the
senators and representatives who did
not carry out the will of the people

Hopkins Boilers Criticised.

The Barr amendment to the Otner
resolution condemns the failure of the
senators and representatives who did
not carry out the will of the people
as expressed at the polls, in the choice
of United States senator, which &C
ton the senate deems most reprehen.
sible." Jones protested against the
adoption of such amendment He de-
clared that he stood by Hopkins until
1t was apparent that the deadlock
could never be broken unless the mem
bers changed their vote
IL voted for Foss because he receiv-
ed the highest vote in my district and
that is another reason why turned
against Hopkins said Jones.
Senator Daley severely criticised
Jones for his action in the senatorial
deadlock Jones, should be condemn
ed as well as any other member for
his violation of the peoples will,
said Daley. "He was as much a party
to the disastrous Lorimer election as
were those charged with bribery
Senator Dunlap supported Jones in
his opposition to the Barr amendment.
IF you are going to condemn the In
dividual members of this body said
Dunlap, why then don't you put in
that bipartisan organization of the
house which was. chiefly instrumental
in the election Of Lorimer.
The senate by a viva-voca vote
adopted the Barr resolution calling
for the dropping of the Broderick-
Pemberton cases.
Senator Henson in opposing the
adoption of the resolution said:
I'm not going to vote for the reso
luton but / want to protest against the
tactics used by the republican steer,
Ing committee. They are bringing this
resolution before this body for the pur.
pose of building up their campaign
material"
= Senator John C. Mckenzie, a member
of the Helm committee, said he firmly
believed that the election OF Lorimer
was brous5s ehaut by illegal methods
