many Republican votes, some OF
which were cast by men who thus
protested making the suffrage meas
ure a football Of politics.
The only unanimous consent day OF
the session will probably be known
as the day when Mann proposed but
Miller disposed by overturning a
carefully cooked pot of beans.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1917-06-08
How Miller Spilled the Beans

Readers of the Congressional Rec
ord need the Interpretation which
newspaper comment affords. For ex-
ample, the Record Of Wednesday last
conveys the information that the only
bill on the unanimous consent calen-
dar, one providing a monument to
President Buchanan, came regularly
before the House, was debated for
while, the Republican opponent Of the
measure being Miller of Minnesota
who charged the Democrats with bad
faith in bringing up for consideration
anv but war measures at this session.
It further appears that Miller's pro-
test was SO well taken that it con-
WINGED the majority leader, Claude
Kitchin, who thereupon moved an ad-
journment of the House, which was
effected after roll call in which most
of the Republicans, including Miller,
voted no. That is about all that the
Record discloses.
The real facts of the case are
these: The National Suffrage Asso-
citation, in the line Of its policy not
to interfere unduly with war meas
ures at this session, desiring only to
perfect the machinery for definite ac-
ton later, had secured from House
leaders, backed by the President, the
promise of a woman suffrage COM
mittee, to be provided for on a report
of the Rules Committee. The Wom-
ans party supported this proposition
in perfunctory fashion, but in the
meanwhile arranged with Minority
Leader Mann, whose business it is, in
the rare chances of partisan politics
at this session, to put the majority
in a hole, to discharge the Judiciary
Committee from consideration Of one
of the bills calling for the national
amendment. The plans were care
fully laid and secrecy was necessary
10 success. With a solid Republican
vote and the support of numerous
Democratic suffragists, the thing
could have been done, the bill put on
the calendar, and then pressed to a
vote, the consideration Of embarrass-
ing the majority party being, of
course, paramount to the success of
the amendment itself.
But the best laid plans Of mice and
women aft gang aglee. The Buchsn-
an monument proposition had to
come up first. Miller Of Minnesota
was put forth to charge the Demo
Gratis with a violation of their con-
tract to consider only war measures
at this session. That would prepare
the way for calling up the woman
suffrage resolution, the doors being
thus thrown wide open But Miller
overplayed his hand. He grew 50 elo-
quent over the iniquity Of considering
anything but the war bills that he
gave Kitehin the chance he had been
looking for. Agreeing heartily with
the Miller proposition, Kitchin moved
the adjournment of the House on the
Buchanan measure, and the House
adjourned, with the help Of g good

NO MORE "INCOMUNICADO" LAW IN
MEXICO.

One of the good things which the consti-
nationalist government promises Mexico is
the abolition Of the ancient "incomunicado"
law, by which any person charged with
crime was thrown into prison and not per-
mitted for the space of seventy-two hours
to see anyone but his jailors-not even a
lawyer. After the termination of that per-
iod. the prisoner was taken before a Judge,
still without legal advice or assistance, and,
if in his wisdom the judge decided that the
culprit had not borne solitary confinement
long enough, he might he ordered back for
another two days in his lonely cell. This
law has long been pointed out as a bio up
on the legal machinery Of Mexico. The new
regime of the constitutionalists in wiping
out the incomunicado law will give to the
lerson accused of crime in that country
III same chance accorded those accused
Of crime in other countries TO obtain legal
aid nj once and have n fair trial before n
inv of his peers.
