What Would Have Hap pened to Four Presidents If They Had Been Sub ject to Recall-Youthful Ohioan Was Prepared.

Washington, D. C., May 1-"Wash- mgton. Lincoln, Jefferson. Madison and Roosevelt would have been victims of the recall had it been included in the constitution when they were in the presidential chair" said Representa- tive Kahn of California in the house today in speaking against the initia- tive. referendum and recall in the Arizona constitution.
 When Washington sent the Jay treaty to the senate to be ratified" MT. Kahn said, there was such an outburst of disapproval on all sides that within twenty-four hours there after the necessary recall petitions would have been signed by thousands of electors in excess of the required percentage
 Lincoln would have been put to the task of defending his title as chief executive of the republic in the dark days of 1862 if the recall had been one of the cardinal principles of the federal constitution.
 Does any one doubt that enough signatures could have been procured in the south for the recall of President Roosevelt immediately after he had invited Booker T Washington to lunch with him at the White House?

 The statehood resolution will be oe- fore the house until Tuesday. Chalr- man Flood of the territories commit fee secured an agreement tonight to have all debate closed on the measure on that day
