Unanimous Consent" Ended in the
Senate.

Unless the recalcitrant senators, of
whom there are only two or three left,
should filibuster against the submission
to roll-call of the proposal which both
have now adopted for modifying the
unanimous consent theory-and the
chances of any such filibuster are too
remote for consideration--one ancient
law of the United States has come to an
end. Unanimous consent" is dead. The
modifying rule is not radical. 1t will
be seldom invoked It is much like the
of financial stringency. of which some
body said the knowledge of its existence
would suffice to accomplish the purpose of
its enactment.
The new rule provides that the de-
bate may be closed in the Senate on
written motion signed by sixteen mem
bers, submitted the following day TO
rollcall, and then supported by a two
thirds majority--or by siXty-four sena-
tors. Rarely does one party have so
large fraction as this, and so the rule
win not ordinarily put a new weapon
in the hands of King Caucus. 1t would.
for example, take more than decree
of the Democratic caucus in the present
administration to send measure
against which the Republican minority
might be making q last ditch fight, to
such rollcall for the purpose Of clos.
ing debate.
We believe this change in the main
desirable, although not overlooking the
important contribution which the ''unan-
imous consent" idea had made to defence
Of minority rights. 4 type of pork bar
rel bills, which have been talked To
death in the past, will doubtless become
law now, since more than two-thirds of
the members will have stake in the dis
.ribution.
There is no guarantee, however, that |
1 minority is more sane minded or vir- |
,uous than the majority. Unanimous |
'onsent has operated not only to en-
hrone a riligant minority, but often as
/ weapon. in legislative hlackmail. The I
senator could rise in early
March to say that if the item for his
'wn city was not accepted by the confer
es on the part of the other house, he
hould proceed to talk the bill to death.
Ind his associates have usually yielded.
billions of dollars have in this way gone
nut of the treasury into projects of
as the necessary price for
voiding a filibuster.
The Wilson administration has proved
period of great dynamic changes in
ur own history as well as in that of
he greater world And not least of
he events of this dramatic period is
he abrupt ending of an ancient institu
ion. 1t will be different Senate with
Mt unanimous consent" Even though
