length even with friends, for his hand
trembles and he can write legibly but

speak he r. liable to a laryngeal

death by strangulation.
These statements, related by DR..
Walter F. Chappell, Mr.. Rockefeller's g
physician, are of intense interest. Not

believe that the curbing of the hereto
fore autocratic power of the president
pro TEN. OF the senate, the speaker OF
the house and the favored chairmen of
standing committees, will smooth the
way for the early and rapid passage of
progressive legislation.
The committee on committees, to
which has been delegated the import
ant appointing prerogatiyes heretofore
exercised by the presiding officers Of
the two chambers, constitutes, in the
estimation of Independent members.
the most striking innovation in legis-
lative procedure in this state for many
years.
George E. Alter, of Allegheny, the
speaker of the house. who won in a
field Of six candidates after a spirited
contest, said that the newly authorized
committee on committees would be
compelled to work strenuously be-
tween now and the reconvening Of the
legislature ON Monday evening, Jan.
20.
Representative Samuel B. Scott, OF
Philadelphia, chairman Of the commit
tee, declared that the most scrupulous
care would be taken to give organiza-
ton Republicans. Independent Repub-
licans, Democrats, Keystoners and the
Washington party members of the
house proportional representation.
There are forty-one house commit.
tees, thirty-seven made up of twenty.
five each; three of thirty-five each, and
one, the appropriation committee, OF
forty members. The names of all who
will serve on these committees, in
cluding the chairmen, will be announc-
ed on the reconvening of the house.
Radical changes in the rules. which
have made it easy for the speaker
heretofore to influence the actions of
the standing committees, will be sug-
gested. If the newly created committee
is as effective as expected, the burying
of bills in standing committees, COM
planned of in past years, will be re-
duced to q minimum.
Speaker Alter and many other men,
bers of the lower chamber, after hear
Ing the governors message, expressed
themselves As pleased with It's "pro-
gressive" tendencies
T. Henry Walnut, one of the Phila'
delphia members, said that from all
he could learn from talks with fellow
legislators of every political alliance,
this session will bring Pennsylvania
ten years forward
Without protest, upon resolution
presented by Senator Sproul. the old
officers of the senate were reelected.
These are: Chief clerk, Herman M.
Kephart, Connellsville; secretary, w.
Harry Baker, Harrisburg; librarian,
Herman P. Miller, Harrisburg, and ser
geant-at.arms, William H. Williams,

Senator Huffman tried to get through
a resolution to investigate the need for
SO many senate employees. This was
declared out of order as not germane
and belonging to the work of the
