WOULD STOP THEIR PAY
EARLY NEXT DECEMBER
Senator Cummins Plans to Leave
Members Of Monetary Commits
sion Jobless.

To number tho days Of the national
monetary commission. Senator Cummins
started action yesterday. He presented
a bill directing that the commission shall
submit it's final report the first Monday
Of next December. and repeating the pro-
visions Of law creating the commission.
effective the day after it's final report
is submitted.
Ten Of the eighteen members OF the
commission are no longer members of
Congress. and nine of those ten are
drawing the $500 year salary they
would draw as members of Congress. The
law creating the commission provides
that If any member ceases to be a
member of Congress before the COM
mission completes its work. he shall con-
tinue to draw the salary he would get
as a member Of Congress.
The former members of Congress on
the commission are former Senators
Aldrich, Burrows, Hale. Knox. Teller.
Money. Flint and Taliaferro and former
Representative Bonynge and Mclaughlin.
Mr.. Knox draws no extra salary as MEM
Der Of the commission, because he draws
salary as Secretary Of State.
Talk of abolishing the commission has
been going the rounds at the Capitol
since the close of the last session. On
the day that Congress adjourned. Sena-
tors Flint and Taliaferro and Representa-
tive Mclaughlin. whose service expired
that very day, were appointed members
of the commission, and thus continued on
Uncle Sans payroll.
