Against Cloture
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
READY FOR PRINTING
BY United Press.

By United Press.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 29.--The pro-
logue OF the sixty-fourth Congress,
which convenes next Monday, opened
today. Machinery Of organization was
placed in motion. The Senate Demo-
Gratis caucus convened with prospects
of an all-week session over a cloture
measure.
Democrats Of the House ways and
means committee met to begin franz
ing committee assignments, including
reorganization OF several important
committees. The special budget COM
mittee also reconvened today in a
last effort TO reach an agreement on
a budget plan.
President Wilson was back planning
to complete his opening message and
send ii to the public printer before
night. It will be read in person to a
Joint session Of Congress December g..
Despite preyioussrumors of shake
up In the Senate's organization, indi-
cations we're today that the Democrat
ic caucus would re-elect old officers.
including Senator Kern as party lead
er; Clarke. OF Arkansas, chairman
pro tempore, and Senator Lewis, whip.
Senator Kern called the caucus to
order today. A fight against re-elec-
tlon of Senator Clarke had threat
ened. because of his "insurrection"
last session against the administra-
tion ship purchase bill
,ttrbt,s. c..
ate debate and prevention Of fili-
busters were presented to the caucus
by Senator Kern and Senator Owen.
They propose an amendment to give
the Senate power 20 close debate at
any time. Considerable opposition 10
the cloture plan by veteran and con-
lservative Democrats was evident To-
/ day. Senator Oyerman was regarded
as the leader of this opposition.
Exemption of caucus measures from
the cloture, or gag. rule was a condi
ton proposed today by the anti-clot
lure Democrats. Prominent SENATOR
said they expected the Democratic
caucus TO consume most OF the week.
Numerous vacancies on the nava
and military committees presented the
chief problem today to'the house ways
and means Democrats. Whether for
liner little navy" men on the nava
committee will be reseated was one
problem. Increase OF Republican and
decrease OF Democratic representation
in the House also insured radical re-
vision of all House committees. Rep
lresentative Kitchin presided over the
meeting today. His formal election
as chairman. carrying with it the
party leadership. is scheduled with
other committee assignments.

RHEIMS Statue HEAD

PARIS. Nov. 29-The papers de-
vote a good deal of space to a report
that Alfred /. DUPONT. of Wilmington,
Delaware. has bought the head Of a
statue from Rheims Cathedral.
The Secretary Of State for Fine
Arts said today I'VE have opened

may have occurred, but we remember
that a few years ago a dishonest
dealer sold to a German client heads
that he alleged to have been from
Notre Dame which proved to be fakes.
There exists In the Trocadero
Museum a mold Of the celebrated
head of an angel forming part OF the
cortege of ST. Nicaise on the western
facade Of Rheims, which is called
The Smile of Rheims. II this is
the head mentioned in the newspapers
il is probable that the buyer has been
tricked, as it is easily copied.

vine Smile has been destroyed by a

SOME PERTINENT FACTS.

SOME PERTINENT FACTS.
ENGLISH ALIENS IN NEW YORK.
While the allied press Of New York
is all for England, it is not unproit-
able to get a line IN what the English
sojourners in our midst are doing to
help pay taxes and support the govern
ment of the United States. OF the
total number OF aliens in New York
City, the Englishborn constitute 32h
per cent of the population. OF the
totsi number Of aliens of more than
seven years residence in the United
States they constitute "a per cent
Ceaving only is per cent of all other
aliens not citizens of the country. OF
the total number of Englishmen cate
chised by the officials Of New York
City for jury duty from January j,
1912, to June Is, 1914, 9615 per cent
were aliens, approximately 40 per cent
OF whom had been in the country
more than Is years. These figures are
from official sources. They speak
volumes.
