a bill, if it deemed legislation of the
proposed character needed. The bill
would carry no designated author.
The bill, after it's introduction by the
committee. may or may not be re-
ferred again to committee.
Another rule which may be pro-
posed by Captain Maynard, which
probably would have to be joint sem
ate and house rule, would provide for
amending conference committee re-
ports by joint resolution. Under pres
ent rules, a conference committee's
report on a bill can not be amended
on the floor. 1t must either be accept
ed or rejected.
The present rule, Captain Maynard
says, has been responsible for many
Objectionable laws in the past, as in
terested persons have been able to OBJ
tain amendments through conference
committees which would have been
unable to obtain otherwise.

OHIO LEGISLATURE
MODERNIzES METHODS

COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 21-Glory in
authorship of certain laws may be
curtailed. but at the same time griev'
Gus errors would be reduced to min
imum and legislation speeded up, if
the Ohio house or representatives
adopts rule which Clerk John P
Maynard says he expects to have pre-.
scented soon after the legislature con-
venes January }.
Under the rule advocated by Captain
Maynard, bills would not be introduced
by individual members. They would
be presented as proposals. These pro
posals, more in the form of suggested
Legislation, would be sent to the proper
standing committees, which would
consider all proposals bearing upon
the subject. From the various pro
posals the committee would formulate

EXTENDING THE MENU.

The man who discovers a new vege-
table Is a human benefactor. The
problem Of feeding the world has been
impressed upon US in the last few
years as one fraught with anxieties.
We are less disposed than We were to
take our daily bread for granted, and
as for our daily butter and eggs and
sugar we are becoming used to a
measure of uncertainty concerning
them. Hence we read with more than
passing interest that the Missouri Boz
tanical gardens have produced the
"arracacha" and the "dasheen." The
names are uncouth. They have an Hi
bernian sound to them, perhaps be-
cause these new vegetables are said to
be related to the potato. But the fla
vor of Missouri's contributions to our
menu Is said to be all that an epicure
could wish. From another source
comes announcement that the seeds
and tubers Of the water lily are deli
cious in a stew and have considerable
nutritive value. 1t Is said the Indians
have long employed them as food. We
do not know how easily the "arracha-
cha" and the "dasheen" may be cult
waited, but the water lily needs small
encouragement and, If it lives up to
specifications, 1t ought to be introduced
among the prGlucts available at the
green grocer's. 1t Is probable that we
have overlooked many good things
which might add to the worlds stock
Of provisions and lessen the strain
upon other resources.

II listening in" ON telephone con-
versations can be prevented by a de-
vice invented by Captain Poirson, q
French officer of engineers, then, in
deed, the telephone will become a
much more valuable means Of convey
ing confidential information, whether
business or social, says Brooklyn
Standardization. Also it will end a
certain form of official activity which
came into strong disfavor several
years ago in this city. The device is
said to change the electrical current
as 1t leaves the transmitter so that a
third person, who is accidentally or
mischievously on the same wire, hears
only an unintelligible sound, but the
person for whom the message Is In
tended gets it correctly. How this is
possible remains to be explained, but
If claims made in Paris are warranted
it has been accomplished. Next to bad
service, the thing which takes the JOY
out of private telephone talks is the
fear that possibly some one is hearing
a conversation intended to be strictly
confidential.

Tanks and airplanes have consider
ably disturbed the even tenor of the
"holy war" which the Mad Mullah
started in Abyssinia. The Mad Null
lab has been quiescent so long that
his existence has practically been for
gotten, and his recrudescence is In line
with other violent eruptions, but he is
less to be feared since the war has de-
veloped ways and means Of dealing
with unscientif1c barbaric forces which
will render them comparatively harm
less.

The Dardanelles and the Bosphorus
are now to be general property. The
Turk will lose with them the great
privilege he enjoyed of bowstringing
recalcitrant wives and throwing them
into the latter, for as that waterway
will be internationalized, the bow
string victims cannot be allowed to
clutter up the commerce. For the
poor Turk life will soon be no longer
worth the living.
