Representative Henry to Urge

fend Idea With Vigor.
SIX-YEAR TERM TO COME UP
Senate Probably Will Pass Amend
ment to Constitution Early in
the Coming Session.

Representative Henry Of Texas, chair
man of the rules committee Of the House.
announced today that he intends to push
the proposition for changing the date OF
presidential inaugurations from March 4
to the last Thursday in April. This propo-
sition has been put into concrete form,
and was well known during the last ses-
sion as House joint resolution 204. The
last time 1T appeared on the floor OF the
House Representative Henry defended it
with vigor, and its defeat temporarily was
but a part Of the politics Of the House
at that moment.
Mr.. Henry, who will have much to do
with shaping legislation in the coming
short session, and probably in the coming
extra session, told a Star reporter today
that the proposition for changing the in
augural date is going to be introduced
and defended by him by every means in
his power at an early day; and he spoke
as il he had good reasons to believe that
Congress would eventually adopt 1t.
Along with this scheme goes the Sem
ate proposition for lengthening the term
of the presidential office The resolution
calls for an amendment to the Constitu-
ton. as substitute for article II thereof.
Much Of the adverse talk against the
change, as far as the House is concerned.
comes from men who have individual
ideas on the subject Of the Inauguration.

before notary public and run all the
