FOR DIRECT ELECTION OF
US. SENATORS BY'PEOPlE,

Washington, Nov 1S.-The Senate
steering committee, today. took up the
question of emergency legislation to
provide machinery for the direct cleo
ton of senator's. 1t is probable that
some measure will be reached to en-
able states to apply to the election of
senators the laws that now govern the
choice of representatives in Congress.
With the appointment of Frank p.
Glass as senator from Alabama, the
Senate is confronted by double phase
of the election muddle. Blair Lee, re-
Gently elected in Maryland, was chos-
en- at an election authorized by an
act of the Legislature passed before
the direct election amendment to the
Constitution was adopted.
A settlement of the Alabama case in
favor of Mr.. Glass, according to many
senators, would be unfavorable to the
claims of Senator Elect Lee of Mary
land.

ment of public election" said Sem
atof Vardaman, member of the
Senate committee of privileges and
