VIGOROUS DEFENSE
OF PARTY CAUCUS
SENATOR NEWLANDS ANSWERS
HITcHcock's CRITICISM OF
DEMOCRATIC METHODS.
(By Associated Press.)-

Washington, Dec. 12.-Vigorous de-
tense Of the Democratic caucus as the
only means carrying out party pledges
was made at the opening of the cur
rency debate in tho Senate. Answer
ing Hitchcock's criticisms, Newlands
said the caucus was the only method
by which the result Of party counsel
could be made effective.
The final assault on the detailed
provisions of the administration cur
rency bill was begun in the Senate
last night, Senator Hitchcock leading
the attack In lull in the food of
currency oratory which has occupied
the Senate day and night for almost
two weeks, Senator Hitchcock began
the preparation of his amendments to
the bill, declaring that he declined to
consider as unalterable the measure
completed by the Democratic caucus.
Senator Hitchcock quoted from Pres
ident Wilson's book "The New Free
DOM" to show that the President was
on record against caucus and commit
tee legislation and was in favor of the
consideration of reform measures, Gin
the full light of publicity"
'T have no purpose to delay the
consideration of this BILL" he said,
"hut I deplore the tendency on both
sides to regard this bill as foreclosed
to amendment by the action by the
Democratic caucus. The President
has proclaimed time and again that
discussion in public was above all
things the most important considera-
ton in legislation"
Senator Gallinger suggested that the
President has approved of the caucus
on the tariff bill, and also approx
ed the caucus on the currency bill.
81 doubt that" said Senator Hitch

the votes cast here, that men who
