MEMBERS OF CONGRESS
ASSAIL THE REFERENDUM
Recall Especially Subject of Attack in the House by
Both Democrats and Republicans.

Those governmental nostrums,, the
initiative. referendum. and recall as
Representative Kahn, of California, de-
scribed them. were discussed by half a
dozen members of the House yesterday
during general debate on the New Mexico
Arizona resolution, proposing TO give the
people of Arizona the privilege of re-
scinding their Endorsement of the judicial
recall proposition in their constitution if
they SO desire.
Among the speakers were Mr.. Kahn,
his colleague, Representative Knowland.
Of the same State; Representative Ham,
ilton, Of Michigan, chairman of the Terri
tories Committee in the last congress;
Representative Willis, of Ohio, a new
member, and several others.
Mr.. Kahn wondered what in the world
would have happened to Washington,
Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt, and other
popular idols of their respective day and
generation had the recall. OF which so
much is heard nowadays, been in effect
in their time.
Representative knowland. of California,
got away from the recall proposition long
enough to declare that the much-feared
japanese INVASION is a myth. By in
ference, he suggested that the figures he
submitted might give Representative
Richmond Pearson Hobson, the yellow
perilist of Alabama, something to think
about
The Washington herald., 1911-05-19

Representative Hamilton, Of Michigan,
bitterly opposed the recall of judges. He
called attention to the fact that up to
recent years the Constitution of the
United States had been held by the people
as an almost sacred thing.
But recently he said, every upstart
for political favor seeks to inflame the
public mind with the idea that this in
strument, or some State constitution,
ought to be overhauled to express his
particular theory. and the Constitution IS
denounced as antiquated and insufficient
for modern needs.
Wendell Phillips once said that for
mally a man had TO serve an apprentice
ship of seven years in order to make a
pair of boots, but that in his time
man might talk seven weeks and become
the governor of a great State. He does
not have to talk seven weeks now.
Seven days is enough.
Nowadays, if a statesman of the spot
light, opera-bouffe. whirling dervish
variety denounces every body, claims all
virtue for himself. and indicates that the
Constitution is a bungling thing and that
he could have made better one himself
at odd times, a large number of people
will recognize that the world has been
waiting a long time for him, and will
invite him to high places to overhaul
the work of ages in thirty minutes"
Mr. Hamilton then proceeded to wade
into the recall proposition and give it
fits.

FINE ARTS COMMISSIONERS
DISCUSS MEMORIAL PLANS
Proposals to Honor Lincoln Carefully Studied and
Formal Report Will Be Made-Lighting of
the Avenue Also Taken Up.

Whether the Lincoln Memorial will
grace Capitol Hill or form the center OF
intersection Of roadways on the Mall. or
whether it will take the form of great
highway lined with statues between
WASHINGTON and Gettysburg will depend
upon the labors Of the Commission Of
Fine Arts, which held a protracted ses-
sion yesterday afternoon in the Office OF
Col. Spencer Cosby.
Careful attention was given to every
plan that has ever been proposed as
perpetuating the memory and in display
ing the national love Of Abraham Lin
coin After a long and careful survey
Of the situation, it was decided that
most exhaustive study of the several
plans proposed, of the possibilities Of
each plan, and of the especial fitness of
each should be made, and the results
submitted, when completed, to the Lin
coin Memorial Commission for final deci-
sion.
How Pennsylvania avenue may be best
lighted was also the subject of much
careful investigation and discussion by
the commission, and several plans were
suggested to accomplish this much-needed
improvement of the thoroughfare Out
of the mass of detail suggested, 1t was
decided to make selection of the most
feasible and practicable and submit the
selection to the Commissioners OF the
District in the form Of a report. This
report will be prepared at once and will
go to the Commissioners to-day or to-
morrow.
The members of the commission realize
the importance of prompt action in the
matters in hand and every effort will
be made to formulate plans and submit
them to the authorities at the earliest
possible moment

Presence OF mind on the part of both
drivers was all that saved a smashup.
Cunningham pulled one way to avoid
McBurney, who was forced to cut d.
rectly across the road. They were too
close together to clear. and the right
front wheel OF the Marion collided with
the right rear wheel of the Mathe-
son, springing the front axle and break
ing its wheel.
Clarence Barnard made a lightning
change Of radiators yesterday morning
on his STANDARDIZATION Immediately
after checking out. He found Tuesday
that his radiator was leaking. II took
him just twenty-nine minutes to make
the change, the motor running all of the
time. Frank Stewart and his REQ suf-
fered a penalization of 81 points for being
late out OF the noon control and two for
securing the tonneau Of his car.
He lost the road in one place yester-
day and that was the main cause of
his being late. Stanley Mortimer and
his Buick are making a record for COM
ing in first at controls. They arrived
in at both the noon and night controls
yesterday first and on previous days led
the procession.
Holds to Their Time.
Machen and his Ford Wed with the
only other car to come through the day
clean. Not satisfied with running on his
own schedule, four miles an hour slower
than the big cars, he makes it a point to
hold to their time. Three points for a
motor stall is all that this. the smallest
car in the run, has against 1t.
Forty-eight points were put against the
Warren-Detroit for putting on tires in
the noon controI. This work can only
be done on the road with the motor
running. 1. c. Barber. the driver. pur-
chased some tires in Hagerstown and
ordered them to be left at the starting
line. When he returned from dinner he
found the accommodating dealer had put
them on. His accommodation cost the
Warren forty-eight points. One point
was also marked up against the car for
putting gasoline on the brakes.

Three Afternoon Lectures.
All three of the afternoon lectures were
illustrated with the stereopticon. One of
the most interesting of the series was
by Raymond Unwin. an English archi-
tect and critic, who has been at the fore
front of the new British movement for
the creation of new industrial towns.
Mr.. Cnwin's pictures illustrated the new
industrial suburbs of London now In
course Of construction on Hepmstead
Heath.
William Laurel Harris lecture on the
Roman tradition in American art" was
illustrated with reproductions of the best
work of the American mural painters
The correlation OF the interests Of
artist. architect. and client furnished
the topic for the concluding lecture of the
convention, by Edwin H. Blashfield, Of
New York.
There were but few references to Wash
ington in any of the lectures, except in
the matter of praise. Mr.. Unwln criti-
cised the general treatment of corners
by American architects. and showed how
the sharp and inharmouious street turn
ings in American cities tended to destroy
symmetry of the city landscape.

CHANGE OF DATE
ADVOCATES BUSY
Gallinger Introduces ResO-
luton in the Senate.

Preparations are being made in the
Senate to push along the project of
changing the date OF the Inauguration of
the President OF the United States from
March to the last Thursday in April. A
resolution proposing a general substitute
for Article XII Of the Constitution was
introduced yesterday by Senator CALM
ger and referred to the Committee on the
Judiciary.
Unlike the Henry resolution. to be in
troducced in the House, it does not pro-
vide different system for electing and
converting Congress than that In force at
present, but merely changes the date of
inauguration and lengthens the terms of
Senators and Members and the Presi-
dent to meet that change when It takes
place.
A means Of covering the hiatus existing
The Washington herald., 1911-05-19

between the time the electoral vote is
counted and the seating of the Presi-
dent is provided in clause of the resolu-
ton which is designed to supply a Presi-
dent in case death should occur in that
period.
The proposed new Inauguration date and
the expiration of terms of members of
Congress is covered in the following
terms:
''On the first day of January, 1913. or,
II this amendment shall not have been
heretofore ratified, then on the subse-
quent ratification thereof, the then exist
ing Congress and terms of Senators and
Representatives therein and terms of Of
flee of the President and Vice President
shall be extended until the last Thurs
day in April following the 4th day of
March, on which they would otherwise
respectively terminate, and every subse-
quent Congress and term of any Sena-
tor, Representative, President, and Vice
President shall begin and end on the last
Thursday in April instead of the 4th day
Of March,
Adds Important Provision.
After rehearsing the present constitu-
tional requirement as to counting the
electoral vote and choosing a President,
the Gallnger resolution adds the follow
ing provision, which gives to Congress the
power to enact any necessary law of sue
cession:
I'm all cases not provided for by Article
II, clause fifth, of the Constitution,
where there is no person entitled to dis
charge the duties of the Office Of the
President, the same shall devolve upon
the Vice President The Congress may
by law provide for the case where there
is no person entitled to hold the Office
of President or Vice President, declar-
ing what officer shall then act as Presi-
dent, and such officer shall act according
ly until the disability shall be removed
or President shall be elected"
