AMEND DIPLOMATIC BILL
Democrats Seek to Pry Into
State Department Secrets.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, Jan. 3l.-An indication Of
the determination OF the Democratic House
TO pry further into the delicate diplomatic
was contained in the diplomatic and con-
sulaT appropriation bill reported to-day in
the form OF A provision that hereafter the
secret or emergency fund Of the depart
ment shall he subject 10 examination by
the chairrnen of the Foreign Affairs Com
nittee Of the House and the Foreign Re
lstions Committee Of the Senate The bill
prcyides that whenever II shall I've deemed
necessary expenditures from the emergency
fund. covered by Section 29l OF the Re-
vised Statutes shall be subjected 10 the
scrutiny OF these representatives of the
legislative branch Of the government.
Existing law provides that these OK
penditures shall rot be made public except
IN the discretion of the President. The
recommendation Of the Foreign Affairs
Committee, which reported the bill. is evil
IDENTIFY due 20 the pQue OF the lIamlin in
vestieating committee. which long ago re-
ser;ed the idea that the State Department
should keep any diplomatic secrets from
the public.
The diplomatic and consular appropri-
alton bill carries sS,512,541, which is ap-
proximately 100000 less than the esti-
mates. Chairman Sulzer said he found in
stances where cuts could be made "all along
the line" and he advised other appropri-
atins committees "to go and do likewise"
instead OF seeking 10 save by cutting out

WANTS HOMEMADE CHARTERS
Assemblyman Murray Would Have
LEGISLATURE Leave Cities Alone.
rBy Telegraph to The Tribune.


Albany. Jan. 3l.-A homo rule PROPOSE
ton of a novel sort was presented TO the
Legislature to-day by Assemblyman Muir
ray, of New York, who introduced a con-
stitu,ional amendment providing a scheme
for charter conventions for cities. This
idea is based Oh plans being tried success
fully I'm California and oregon. II author
ICES the Legislature 10 make general laws
applicable TO all cities. according 10 their
classes, for charter conventions at regular
intervals. Delegates would be elected 10
these conventions, and the proposed char
ters would be passed on by referendum
before becoming effective. Amendments 10
the charters may be made by referendum,
and could be suggested by the municipal
council or by petition OF voters.
Once the general laws governing this
situation were adopted the care OF munich
pal charters would be left TO the munich
nalities themselves, and the Legislature
would be rid OF the multiplicity of proposed
charters and charter amendments with
which II now has Ia deal. These. while
wholly Of local concern. become the objects
Of open though intrinslcally scandalous
dlckering and log rolling. The fight over
the proposed Tammany charter for New
York City last year, in which were involved
deals on the Congressional reApportionment
bill and other legislation. showed this
scandalous trade at It's height
Mr. Murray thinks his scheme would end
all this and provide measure Of genuine
home rule. such as does not exist In the
state to-day. Authorities on municipal
government in many states have about de-
clded. he says, that the charter CONVENTION
is tic thing.
