legislative body needs a more speedy

New Rules Needed.
Mandatory Committee Reports.
There ought to be a rule requiring
all standing committees on certain
days of the week, to report on all bills
in their hands three days or longer
If a committee has not finished its
work it may report progress and ask
further time. The present provision
for reports should be retained. The
days for mandatory reports should be
different for different committees.
The object of this rule is to prevent
clogging the calendar at the close OF
the session, and "pigeon hole" delays
to defeat bills.
Disclosing Private Interest.
A rule requiring every member tc
report the kind of corporations anc

shares, and state the Offices and direc.

SUGGESTIONS

TOR,
To the Independent:

With the advent of the Initiative
and Referendum plan Of legislation,
which in reality makes the legislator
and the voter partners in legislation,
the right of the voter to understand
As we'll as to suggest plans of proceed
ure ought to be consistent, mutual and
agreeable on the part of both. With
this view in mind l am going to sug-
gest some very needful amendments to
the rules of both houses Of the legis-

amendments, some of which are radi-
cal to useage, bear in mind that am

rules of the House of Lords and Com

Authority of Assembly Rules.
Some of the important questions
that come into the minds of students
Of assembly procedure-(P Parliament
airy, Congressional, legislative are
sometimes used to describe these
rules, but they are more appropriate
for specific applications)- ARE these:
1. From whence cometh the author
ity? 2. Where is the limit to the
authority? 3. Why not enact the
rules into statutory law? To the
first ~, In state legislature the au-
thority is derived from the constitu-
tions of both the state and the U. s.
Congress may legislate on matters on
ly specifically delegated by. the consti-
tuition, while the legislature may legis-
late on matters not prohibited by the
constitution. In this the assembly
rules find authority like unto both. To
the second, (2): The legislative body
is limited in its rules to the constitu-
tions and statutes. They are subject
to short notice changes, yet they can.
not go behind the expost facto injunc.
ton. To the third, 49,: The legisla.
ture has no authority to try anyone
for violating the statutes. For this
reason experience teaches that legis
lative body should go slow in delegat
ing their rules to the courts construc

Farmer. Adopt w.sehf.l waiting.

Many farmers OF this section have
very recently adopted Woodrow Will
sons policy OF watchful waiting.
They have been watching the soil be-
ing washed from their rolling lands
into the bitches; they have been
watching the rapid growth OF grass
and forage crops. the grain fields
and vegetation OF. various kinds and.
last but not least, the quick and stu
pendous growth OF the various spec
les OF weeds addicted to this particu-
lar climate and soil.
On the other hand they have been
waiting and longing for just such
rains as have visited US almost daily
for the past ten days and now they
are waiting for the fair days that are
sure to come sooner or later when
they will be granted the opportunity
Of going into their fields and coping
with the weed situation instead Of
pulyerizinE and narrowing. dragging
and rolling their crop lands in order
to hold the moisture.
Farming Is like every other bust-
ness-there Is nothing to do but
work. study and plan and do and
meet conditions and changes n they
come from time to time. In doing
this. why not adopt the policy Of
watchful waiting In spirit Shat
tends toward optimism? Tomorrow
will be n brand new day-and the
sun may shine.
