reconsider the vote on the suffrage
resolution. though, under the Consti
tuition of the United States. it takes
a two-thirds vote to put through
resolution proposing to amend the
Constitution. The rules of the SEN
ate are clear that any motion to re-
consider a vote shall be decided by
majority of the Senate.
Senator Underwood Comments.
Senator Underwood of Alabama,
while he did not question the ruling
of the chair, declared he thought it
unfortunate that this should be the
rule Of the Senate. He said that the
suffrage resolution had been defeat
ed in the Senate. and that now it was
proposed to bring this troublesome
question. which had interfered seri-
war measures, again before the Sem
ate. Senator Underwood predicted
that not a single senator would
change his vote on the resolution
when it is brought up again.
Senator Jones insisted that the rule
was wise since it permitted majority
of the Senate to control its procedure
Senator Wadsworth of New York
criticised the rule and said that he
was sure it must have been adopted
without the Senate'S having in mind
that it might be made to apply in a
case where it required a two-thirds
vote to put a measure through the
Senate.
In making his ruling, Vice President
Marshall said that a motion to re-
consider was merely subsidiary mo-
ton, and that it was plain, under the
rules of the Senate, a majority would
decide it.

COL. ROOSEVELT'S
/ ERROR DEPLORED
Friends Shocked at Charge
of "Favoritism'' in Students
: Training Corps Plan.
MATTER IS MADE PLAIN
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

lJOpyIlXQt, 1915 Dy tnp new 1Ork Evening
Post Company)
Col. Roosevelt has many friends in
Washington. particularly in the Army,
and whenever he goes off on the
wrong tangent they feel it keenly
and wish he hadn't. They know he is
anxious to help win the war and
wouldn't do anything Intentionally to
hurt the morale of the American
Army, SO they assume somebody must
have filled him with misinformation
concerning the true status of promo
tions for enlisted men.
For, as a major general phrased it,
such a criticism as Col. Roosevelt
wrote in the Kansas City Star two
days ago, coming as it did from a
former President of the United States,
is one of the worst blows that has
been struck at the morale of our Army.
Anything that stirs up a spirit of
discomfort due to alleged unfairness
aud discrimination hurts inside the
tie system set into operation through
ths Students Army Training Corps
was both unfair and discriminatory
against the men who are now in
france.
Article and Orders Contrasted.
Some excerpts from Col Roosevelt's
article and some excerpts from exist
ing general orders of the War De-
partment, of which Mr.. Roosevelt
could not have been aware, will illus
trate how easy it is to do injury to
our morale without careful considera-
ton of the facts. Said Col. Roosevelt
IN his article:
1t is announced that the young men
of eighteen or nineteen, included in
the draft. will be sent free to college
by the government, and will there be
given the chance to earn commissions
and escape service in the ranks.
Either this represents sheer deception
or it will mean gross favoritism We
now have plenty of young men who
lave been serving in the ranks for
nearly eighteen months. Scores of
thousands Of these left school when
they went. All these boys, whether
:ney have or have not been to college
are entitled to the first chance for
commissions on equal terms with one
another, except that preference should
be given those who have been engaged

Fighting in Forest.

The spirit of the men in this battle
is demonstrated by that shown by
those in the Argonne forest. This is
the last place in the battle area to dry
out, and is always gloomy in the depth
Of the wood. Fighting has gone on
there with the same stubbornness
which characterized the first days eff
fort. Machine gunners were left be-
hind by the Germans to defend the
main body and there has been some
great rough-and-tumble fighting in the
forest.
Much booty has fallen into the
hands Of the Americans, including an
electric power station at Varennes
1t is estimated that it must have cost
5000 to equip this plant with water
power. The Germans left so hur-
riedly that they did not damage the
machinery and the Americans are
using it. Americans are also utiliz-
ing miles of telephone wire and some
central exchange material which has
been left in position by the retiring
enemy.

Display Keen Spirit.

Although last night was frosty and
the American soldiers were chilled,
tired and wet. they displayed keen
spirit all along the line. In every
trench they were as full Of energy
and determination as on the first day
o. the battle.
Engineer battalions have done good
work on the roads. Commissary trains
are moving forward steadily and ra-
lions are reaching the men in the
most advanced positions.
Anticipating sharp fall weather, the
staff ordered sleeveless leather coats
issued to the greater part of the men
at the front. These coats are lined
with felt and are worn over the uni
forms. They keep out the wind and
turn the rain. They have proved to be
one of the most popular articles of
wear with the men.
