WILL MEET IN SECRET
Democrats Not to Have Public at eau.
Gus; Session TO Be Behind Closed
Doors

Washington, April president
Wilson's suggestion that Democratic
caucuses of the future should be
opened to the public was ignored at q
meeting of his party colleagues OF the
house OF representatives. The house
Democrats, called together to select
the ways and means and other COM
mittees, wrangled for three hours
over the ACCESSIBILITY Of adopting the
open caucus idea and at the end OF
the debate rejected it by vote of 1877
to 84 -s.
The presidents prediction for the
open caucus was not brought to the
way. 1t was thought best to consider
the proposition without spoken refer
ence TO the expressed wishes of the
president ~"
So absorbed did the Democrats be-
come in the discussion of the plan OF
an open caucus that they completely
lost sight OF the fact that they had as
sembled to transact certain routine
business. But the radicals, who favor
the open caucus, insisted on bringing
the question up. This let loose an
avalanche of words esn
Will Hold Another Caucus.
When the caucus resumes its SEES
sion it is expected that the ways and
means committee will be appointed
so that the house may get down to
business on the Underwood tariff bill
without delay.
The open caucus plan was opposed
by Leader Underwood, Representative
Hefiing of Alabama and others. 1t
was approx I'd by Representative Scar
lin of Virginia and Shackelford ofiMis-
souri,. 'iati.s
The subject of the argument in the
affirmative was that as congress was
transacting the peoples business
there should be no secrecy about it.
The contention was made that there
always was the possibility of mischief
in the preparation of legislation be-
hind closed doors and that publicity
should apply to the deliberations OF
congress as we'll as to the affairs OF
corporations.
The argument in opposition was
that with the press and public present
members would feel the restraint and
the result would be to prevent the in
terchange of ideas SO essential to eff
cient work in legislative body.
President Wilson did not attend tbs
caucus, but one of his principal lieu.
