0NE-TERM RESOLUTION
HALTED IN COMMITTEE
Alleged Letter From the President
+ -. Said to Have Deferred
Action.

1t has become known that the sudden
halt which ended the consideration OF
a one-presidential-te resolution by
the judiciary committee of the House
was the immediate result of a ten-page
letter written by President Wilson an6
received by Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer of Pennsylvania. In the letter
the President holds the people should
be entitled to choose a chief executive
for two or even more terms. The fact
that there Is such a letter in existence
has been confirmed at more than one
source of information today, and for
the past week several republican con-
gressmen have been busily building up
a little more campaign material on the
strength of it.
A resolution amending the Constitu-
ton of the United States SO as to pro-
vide for one term only for each Presi-
dent was pending in the judiciary CON-
mittee of the House. This resolution
was In furtherance of the plank in the
democratic platform which read:
Platform Plank Quoted.
"Term of President: We favor single
presidential term, and to that end urge
the adoption of an amendment to the
Constitution making the President of
the United States ineligible for re-elec-
tion and we pledge the candidate of
this convention to this principle"
1t is understood that the Presidents 8
views on the one-term proposition are
not in accordance with the platform
pledge and that the letter to Mr..
Palmer. which was shown privately to
democrats on the judiciary commit
tee, contained Mr.. Wilson's views. to-
gether with extracts from the writings
of publicists and political economists
which also were at variance from the
Baltimore platform
Existence Of Letter Suspected.
1t is said that the President expressed
the belief to Mr.. Palmer that the office
of the President of the United States
was by the Constitution placed in the
gift of the people: that the right of the
gift of this office should not be re-
stricted, and that the people, If they
chose President once, should be en-
titled to choose him for second term
II they desired or for other terms.
Republican members of the judiciary
committee say they have suspected the ex-
istence of that letter and of other SINH
lar letters which have been shown to
the majority of the committee only, and
nave not been received as official cor
respondence: No republican has seen the
ietter. and all efforts to have the text
made public have been fruitless.
