SENATE NOTES
TENS of Interest From Upper
House of Legislature.

The report of the committee on
committees in the senate this morning
showed few changes from the 1917
chairman of the oil and gas commit
tee in place of Wark; W. F. Schoch,
Of the roads and bridges committee,
and the places on committees held by
Lieutenant Governor Huffman and the
late Senator Barr were filled as nearly
as possible thruout.
A new rule, known as rule No. 80.
was adopted upon recommendation of
the rules committee providing that no
new subject matter not set out in the
original bill be included in a commit
tee report on the bill. 1t was eXt
planned that in the last session the
absence of this rule permitted COM
nIittees to entirely change bills after
they were introduced and to wholly
defeat their original purpose.
A new rule also has been adopted
giving the state printer authority to
correct misspelled words and to elm
mate words that are duplicated in
bills.

clerk in the legislature for the last
twenty years, was reelected today
without opposition and Lieut.. Robert
Hasty, former Washburn college stu
dent, who has been an instructor in
army training camps. was chosen for

Washington, June S.-Leaders of
both sides are anxious for the inves.
tigation to start, however, and before
the end of the week ii may be we'll
under way. At tOmorrow's meeting
the full committee may take up the
question of some of those to be called
and may lay down some general plan
CT procedure. That subject will, it is
believed at least be discussed.
One Of the first difficulties to CON-
plicate the inquiry doubtless will be
the question of senatorial immunity
as it applies to Senators Lodge and
Borah in connection with their state
ments of the existence CT treaty
copies in New York, This subject is
expected to reveal sharp difference
of opinion among committee members.
Chairman Lodge has said that he can
slot without breach of confidence tell
any committee more than he already
has told the Senate, and Senator
Borah is understood to hold a similar
view. They are expected to refuse
fatty TO answer informants, basing
their refusal ON the immunity granted
senators and representatives under the
constitutional provision that "for any
speech or debate in either House
they shall not be questioned in any
other place"
