J PROUTY ASSISTS IN
PREVENTING RAID ON
v. s. TREASURY.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Special to Times Republican.
Dcs Moines Oct. 20. - Congressman
S. r. Prouty feels mighty good over
the part he aud a small group of oth-
er patriots played in the closing days
of congress in heading off another raid
ON the United States treasury. But
for their vigilance IL bigger hole would
have been scooped out OF the already
much scraped bottom Of the bin than
was attempted by the administration
managers last summer, which Kenyon
and his colleagues killed off.
This was the cotton bill The flrst
proposal was for an appropriation of
$500 900 600 to enable the government
to buy cotton at 10 cents a bale. This
was too raw and the next scheme was
to appropriate S225.000. 900 to be loaned
to growers of cotton and tobacco. This
was finally defeated.
The situation in congress IS just this.
The administration" controls thru
committees. 1t has the craftsmanship
of every committee except one. 1t has
a majority on every committee. 1t
has majority of a quorum.
After the passage of the war tax
bill, said Congressman Prouty. there
was an agreement entered into for a
quorum so that some other minor mat
tiers could he disposed of. Leader I'm
derwood made a compact with us to
the effect that nothing else should
come up If we stayed and made the
quorum. When we got thru there was
just five more than quorum. These
We're mainly the southern members. In
the spring they had been absent and
we held the quorum. for they were
securing their denominations in their
primaries. In the south, of course it
is all over when the nominations are
made. But our republicans and many
of the northern democrats were getting
away to look after the election. for a
nomination does not mean election in
the north.
AT this juncture Mr.. Henry, of
Texas, brought in his cotton relief
measures. l will say that Underwood
was fair and square and he kept his
agreement with us. But they tried to
put the bill thru anyway When the
matter came up they did not have a
quorum of the democrats We started
filibuster and kept the matter open
until we could get back enough of our
people to defeat the legislation which
We did. 1t was about the prettiest fight
ever pulled off in congress. After the
election there will be a sufficient num-
Der of men on hand al all times so the
bill can never be passed If they
could have forced q vote the day it was
brought up the house would have
passed the bill and of course the SEN
ate would have done so and the presi-
dent would have signed it,"
