CONGRESSMAN DURLEs0M's
EX-PREs|DENT PLAN

! Washington, Dec. 17.-Among the
prominent democrats who will visit
President-elect Wilson within the
next few days is Representative AL
bert s. Burleson. He will discuss with
Governor Wilson his measure giving
to ex-presidents the privileges of the
house enjoyed by territorial dele
gate.
The measure will provide salary
Of $17 900 annually and prohibit an ex-
president member from serving on
committees or voting.
This bill is founded upon the sug-
gestion OF William J. Bryan to let ex-
presidents take part in the debates OF
congress.
Representative Henry d. Clayton Of
Alabama has announced that he will
ask the house before Christmas to
pass his bill limiting the service Of a
president to one term of six years.
He hopes to have the senate accept
the measure before the session is
over.
