called on to meet force with force we
simply sacrifice men and money in a
shameful way. We literally send men
out to acquire their education In
armies under the fire Of an enemy, an
enormity Of which has only to be stat

For relief the secretary proposes a

FIGHT FOR VOICE
IN THE SENATE
Root Begins Battle to Allow
Cabinet Officers Seats
For English System.

Washington, D. c., March 21.-Re-
sardless Of politics, an effort ts.to be
made at the next session of congress
to enact legislation that will give
heads of executive departments the
right to attend sessions Of each house
with opportunity to take part insflis-
(which they have had dua-Aaties. This
was recommended by President Taft
in his last annual message, and 1t is
understood that President Wilson ap-
proves of the suggestion.
"I am strongly in favor of this
plan" said Senator Root. "Our sys-
tenn of government with respect to this
particular matter is weak. In this re-
spect the English system is better"
"W'ould BE Less Friction"-Root.
'If cabinet heads occupied seats on
the floor Of the senate. and could par
ticipate in debate and answer ques-
respective departments. there would
be less friction between the legisls-
itive and executive departments. and
the public business would, I believe.
be transacted with more expedition
and with greater good to the coun.
| try"
Heated Debate Expected.
BY bringing these reports before
the senate it seems to be the purpose
Of Senator Root and his colleagues to
agitate the innovation and, II possible.
put it into effect. 1t will have many
warm champions. Also it probably
will have opponents. who will fight
to the end plan that breaks down
the customs of more than 100 years.
If agreed to. the participation Of heads
Of departments would be confined to
discussion. The right to vote is not
contemplated in the proposed change.
