WOODS DENOUNCES
SECRET CAUCUSES
Iowa Congressman Declares
Democrats Are Hiding Do.
ings From Constituents.

Progressive Republicans, Progressive
are up in arms over the secret caucus
methods which the Democratic leaders
| in House and Senate are using. Wide
spread condemnation of these methods
is being voiced, without reference to
views on the merits of the tariff bill.
Congressman Woods of Iowa, one OF
the leading Progressive Republicans of
the House, today. IN an interview. made
a scathing attack on the secret caucus
system. He declared the House leaders
were going to greater lengths than Can
nonism Mr.. Woods said he spoke, not
as partisan, but as citizen interested
in good government without regard to
party.
Mr. Woods said:
THE methods used by the Democratic
leaders to jam a tariff bill through
Congress, as / view them. are more in
defensible than the legislative methods
that obtained in the days when Cannon
ism was at its worst. No matter what
one may think of the tariff measure,
1t is impossible for any person who be-
lieves in real representative govern
ment to defend the way in which IL Is
being forced to passage
Framed in secret sessions of the
Ways and Means Democrats; consid-
cred in secret conferences between Mr..
Underwood and the President: modi-
fled in further secret sessions of the
Ways and Means Democrats 10 suit
the wishes of the President: II is now
being fastened upon the House Demo-
Gratis in series of secret caucuses
dominated by the will of a coterie of
House leaders and by the desires of the
President, who holds the club of pa
tronage over every Democrat at either
end of the Capitol.
Gag rule will be used to force il
through the House without the chang
ing of a e or the dotting of an f. as il
comes from the secret caucus chamber.
More than this, IL the caucus gag can
be safely invoked in the Senate ii will
be driven through that body by the
same methods used in the House,
fact already shown by the considera-
ton of the bill in secret session in
tween the Finance Committee Demo-
Gratis and the President. wherein the
President enjoined the Senators present
to silence
However good some features of this
bill may be. others are admittedly bad
but because of the secret caucus meth
DDS employed, the bad features cannot
properly be dealt with. How any
progressive man. of whatever party,
can tolerate such procedure as to a
great question of legislation is past I'M
country will tolerate it when it knows
the facts
THE secret caucus has taken the
place of Congress in enacting legisla-
ton and the Democratic members are
hiding from their constituents the
things they are saying and doing in
the secrecy OF the caucus sessions"

Causes interviewer.
The two social questions which have
this winter particularly challenged the
attention Of the city have been votes
for women and what we are going to
do about immortality.
We'll, both these questions are closely
related to this program of ours of re-
stricting the hours of labor and rais-
ing wages by legislation of the so-called
parasite industries. Working women need
the vote to voice their own protest
industrial system.
LAS to the question of morality, you
may institute all the reforms there are
and they will none of them have a
jchance to operate so long as we ignore
the economics of the situation. Just
SO long as young ill-nourished girls are
toiling longer hours than their strength
can endure for paw which is not enough
to supply them with the decencies of
life, it is unfair to expect them to keep
out Of trouble

Boston, Mass. Dec. Sidney ".
WinslOw, president of the United Shoe
Machinery company, was the first wit
ness here for the defence in the dissO-
luton proceedings instituted by the
government. The witness explained the
intricate processes b. which shoes are
lasted and stitched.
As explained by Charles T. Choate,
counsel for the defence, the doctrine
Of the supreme court in the "mimeO-
graph case" which he cited, is nothing
more than the common law right of a
manufacturer to protect his property
and get as good a return for it in the
market as he honestly may.
Discussing the sOcalled tying
clauses" which are included in leases
Of the company's machines counsel
contended that the royalty of from .
10 cents pair on shoes made on their
machines would not provide a suitable
return unless the machinery was
properly used. 1t was 70 insure its
proper use that the tying clauses were
inserted in the leases TO manufactur-

The Indictment Is said to be the inst

more bills in one roll Of the dollar

tourist when he pays his bill, for he
always pulls a roll of 81 bills. There
