SENATOR CUMMINs has opened a
long expected attack on the some
what dilatory national monetary
commission, that refuge of ''lame
ducks" as it has been called. The
Iowa senator introduced a bill re-
curing this commission to present
its final report at the beginning of
the next session, in December, and
this bill provides for the repeal OF
the law creating the commission
and removing it from the payroll
as soon as its report is submitted.
The commission, it will be remem
beTed, consists of eighteen mem,
bers. Seven of them no longer
draw their salaries as senators and
two of them were former members
of the louise of representatives.
l his is why it is called the elaine
duck" refuge. To some of them,
like Senators Aldrich and Hale, the
salary which they draw as mem bers
of the monetary commission is
matter of no great Importance, hut
the others who draw the same salary
as member of congress are Bur
rows, Teller, Money, Flint and
Tal;aferro. This commission was
organized in 1908, Senator Gum.
Minis says that he believes it is
time definite financial plan should
he submitted to congress, that he is
not opposed to any of the members
of the committee, but that he
thought sufficient time had elapsed
for positive results.
