Argentine Deputy Wants to

novel method OF forcing attendance
in the Chamber OF Deputies of the Re-
public OF Argentina has been suggested
by member who Is out OF patience
with those who draw their salaries from
the public purse but fail to fulfil their
constitutional obligation of regular at
tendance.
The suggestion Is In the form Of bill
providing for payment per day to Depu-
ties instead OF a lump sum every month.
Failure to answer the roll call is equiva-
lent TO absence. and the measure pro-
vides that no Deputy shall receive his
pay for days when he 10 absent from

The Argentine Deputy was inspired to
Introduce this bill as AZ result OF the
constant failure to obtain quorum

He assumed the reins OF government and

that he would go the way of his prede-

In spite OF the difficulties engendered

present Congress, 1t was feared, and no
would make an attempt through pressure
brought to bear on Congress to prevent
his being declared elected. Accordingly
DR.. Leguia was persuaded by his friends
to permit his being installed provisional
President before Congress should have
declared tho result OF the elections in
order that the will Of the people, who
unquestonably were in favor OF his can

DR.. Leguis's first administration lasted
from 1905 to 1912. During these -four
years he carried on the excellent ad.
ministrative policies inaugurated by the
previous incumbent. DR.. Jose Pardo
His rule was marked throughout by a
breadth Of vision and 4 friendliness to.
ward foreign capital, which was pro.
vocative Of very great benefits TO the
Industrial and commercial life Of the
country. Unfortunately. however this
wise policy was opposed by a certain
element, Jealous OF any foreign partici-
patton in the Industrial development. In
addition. DR.. Leguia's favorable attitude
toward the movement for religious lib.
srty aroused the opposition OF the cler-
ical element. Accordingly, toward the
END OF his regime. when II seemed pos
siole that the administration candidate
might win out in the 1919 election. these
two factions combined and engineered
an uprising which forced DR.. Leguia to
60 into exile.
Fire Eaters Started Trouble.
The successful candidate in this cleo
ton. Guillermo Billinghurst, q prominent
business man of Lima, although opposed
to foreign capital. introduced many ad-
vantageous administrative economies
and did much for the financial rehabili-
tation OF the country. His foreign pol
icy, however. caused much opposition.
As result OF his attempt to bring
about reconciliation with Chile he an
tagonized the Fire Eaters" who still
cherished the hallucinauon that some
time Peru might regain the lost prov
inces OF Tacna and africa. To this op-
position was ADDED clique OF corrupt
politicians whose desires for personal
enrichment had been thwarted by Bill
