bate -Progressives OPP
pose Change of Rules
Demo cratic Aid
Sought By Republicans

Washington. Sept. 29.-Backed by
assurances of non-interference from
President Harding. Republican SEN
ators today renewed with fresh vig0r
their campaign for a new senate clo-
ture rule to prevent filibustering and
obstructive debate.
The principal immediate task be-
fore the group of Republicans. advo-
eating the change in the time -honored
senate procedure. was said to be the
conversian of prominent leaders. in
Guiding Senator Glass, floor leader.
The plan is meeting with favor
among the rank and file of Republic
ans, it's sponsors said, so much so that
they believe they may count on the
whole Republican membership.
Senators Johnson of California: La
Toilette of Wisconsin. and Borah OF
Idaho, however, were said to be op.
posed to the change. Their opposition
was said to be based on the ground
that restriction of debate by major
ity vote would deny small minority
the power to delay or defeat what
they regarded as vicious measures.
They were said to have emphasized
that the new rule would have prevent
ed the long debate and Campaign OF
education" on the Versailles treaty
and almost blocked the successful
flibuster of the 'wilful twelve" against
former President Wilson's armed ship
bill. Proponents of the new rule, it
was said, replied that with the possi-
BILE exception of the armed ship meas
ure no important legislation in de
cade had been actually beaten by OBJ
struction.
president Harding's assent to the
new cloture plan was said to be based
on the fact that it was new meas
ure. designed to expedite business,
which the senate itself had right
to deciLe upon.
