(Written for the United Press.)
WASHINGTON, Oct After the
end of the next session Of Congress,
if predictions of Senator Owens, of
Oklahoma are accurate, there VIII
be no more tiresome unending de-
bates in the United States Senate. It
will be possible, if the plan Of the
Oklahoma senator is carried out, to
make a motion at any time in the
consideration Of any bill 10 bring de-
bate to close within two days, half
the time remaining after the motion
is carried to be assigned to each side
Of the argument.
For obvious reasons no fight is be-
ing made at this session to put
through any such radical rule. A
number of the older senator's are
desperately opposed TO any change,
and would filibuster it against it.
Under the present rules, If enough
of them got together and continued
to talk, Il would be impossible for a
vote ever to be reached, so that plen-
ty Of time would be lost to put
through this time-saving rule. But
time is Just what there is scarcity
of at this session of Congress, which
has already dragged along to almost
record breaking time length, and
threatens to continue uu until De-
cember when the next regular session
begins.
A striking example Of what one
senator is able TO do in the way OF
obstructing legislation was shown at
this session in the action OF Senator
Burton. Of Ohio. in opposing passage
Of the rivers and harbors pork bar
rel' bill. Under the present rules a
senator may discuss a bill for a year
continuously, if he is physically able
to do so, nor is he confined TO the
subject under discussion.
They still tell the story of how
"PitchfOrk Ben" Tillman on one Oc-
casion. while flibustering against
some measure to when he particu-
larly objected, quoted word in a
peculiar sense. His use of the word
was questioned, wheTeupon he had
a dictionary brought in, ana, to prove
that the definition of the words and
definitions in that dictionary was to
be accepted, read page after page Of
words and definitions TO prove that
the dictionary he quoted was an au-
thority which could be accepted.
The principal defense of the pre-
sent system is that no filibuster could
succeed which did not have a tre-
