o'Gorman Attacks President.

During the debate yesterday after
noon Senator OGorman of New York
made a bitter attack upon the admin
istration's course in regard to the SEN
ate and the ship bill He declared it
was doubtful if the state of New York
would remain in the democratic column
and that it certainly would not If the
people should find that their repre-
sentative in the Senate could be bound
hand and foot by a caucus.
THE proceedings of this Senate in
the last week have been a burlesque
on constitutional government" said
Capitol to pass this ship purchase bill
before the appropriation bills.
The situation in which the demo-
cratic party now finds itself may we'll
excite the anxiety of those who love
the party. The likelihood of New York
state remaining in the democratic COL
umn is doubtful. If you would remove
the last lingering hope of New York re-
manning democratic let it known that
in caucus of senators thirty-two or
thirty-fiye democrats can bind the rep
resentative from New York state hand
and foot"
Concluding. Senator O'Gorman de-
clared there would be as much warrant
for the President sending for the Chief
Justice of the United States to come to
the White House to discuss a pending
case as to send for a senator to take
his orders.
Senator Root of New York resented
attacks upon the obstructive tactics OF
the republicans. Members of the mi
nority are engaged in preserving fun
damental principles of representative
government" he declared. "a senator
recently said to me: 1 could not af-

BR0WN[OW IS DUBIOUS
ON PUBLIC OWNERSHIP
District Commissioner Gives His
Conclusions From Study Of
the Subject Abroad.
Tells of Glasgow's Experience in
First Public Utterance Since
Assuming Office.

Municipal ownership may be made a
success in this country, but only when
there is community spirit back of it.
In Washington there is very great need
for the development of this kind of
sentiment. These are some of the con-
clusions drawn by District Commits
sloner Louis Brownlow as a result of
an exhaustive study of public service
questions in this country and abroad.
In his first public utterance on the
subject of municipal ownership since
he became a District Official Mr..
Brownlow. in an address last night be-
fore the Home Club of the Interior De-
partment. frankly admitted that he had
received abroad expert testimony to the
erect that municipal ownership would
not flourish in America. The manager
OF the Glasgow, Scotland, street rail-
way system. probably the best NUM-
clpally owned and operated plant Of its
said
But the Commissioner pointed out
mat the criticism of the Glasgow ex-
pert was based on the fact that in that
city municipal ownership has sprung
up under an autocratic form of govern
ment. whereas 1t was questioned
the democratic institutions Of America
Officials Serve City Without Pay.
In Glasgow the municipal officials are
rich and serve the city without pay
Their ruling ambition is to bring about
reforms that will develop the city and
benefit the people. It was through the
eforts Of these autocratic heads OF
Glasgow that the street RAILWAYS Of
the Scotland city became municinallv
owned thirty-fve years ago.
Commissioner BrownloW EXPRESSED
the opinion that once the people Of this
country get the proper idea of their
relation to government municipal own
ership will succeed under a democracy
IN the United States far better than il
has under an autocracy in Glasgow.
But. he warned, this condition can
never be achieved until the people Of
Anerlca adopt a different attitude to-
ward their governments, national and
municipal. They must look upon gov
ernment as something that is a part of
them; as an institution from which
they are to receive benefits.
Glasgow's One-Cent Fare.
The Commissioner told of the de-
velopment of the Glasgow plant until,
at the beginning of last year, it had a
debt of only $4,000, with fares reduced
to the basis of 1 cent per zone mile
1t is expected that eventually a fiat
rate of cent for the whole system will
be established. A rule of the city is
that wherever the earnings Of the road
in any one year are more than $4,000
fares must be reduced.
One of the results of reduced street
car fares in Glasgow, continued Mr..
Brownlow, was the driving out Of busi-
ness of large number of lunchrooms
in the downtown section of the city.
Cheap rates enabled nearly every busi-
ness man to go home for lunch. And
the report of the health officer showed
a reduced mortality rate. which is at
tributed to the health-giving properties
of home cooked food.
Commissioner Brownlow concluded by
suggesting that we already have been
