URGES INAUGURATION OF
PRESIDENT IN JANUARY
Shafroth Offers Amendment Calling
Congress Two Months Earlier.

Washington. Jan. 29.-Senator Snat-
roth of Colorado is pressing the Senate
judiciary committee for favorable ac.
ton on his resolution TO amend the
constitution so as to make the date OF
The conVening OF Congress the hrSt
Monday i'm January, after the election
instead Of March 4, and 10 have the
term of the president begin the third
Monday in January instead of March ..
In "A statement presented to the COM
mittee. the senator asserted that the
proposed change in the date OF the
date of the opening Of Congress would
prevent such a situation as arose In
the Hayes-Tilden controversy, in 1876
by making it impossible that a house
composed in part of members who had
not been reelected should decide the
election of president Under his plan
the newly elected representatives
would settle such an issue.
Other arguments made by Senator
Shafroth in favor of his Amendment
were that IL would abolish the short
session: members would come fresh
from their campaiens To Congress be-
fore they had time to forget thelr
pledges to .he people; ana leslsiatioh
hv men who had failed Of election
would be eliminated.
