DIRECT VOTING.
FOR PRESIDENT.
Opposes Progressiyes' Plan
for AboIishlng Electoral COL
lege, and Other Changes
STANDS BY CONSTITUTION
Deprecates Norris Resolution
to Move Forward Time Of
New Congress Sessions
BY Unfvsssal oerStes.

President Harding permitted it
to be known yesterday that he
will fight the Progressive groups
plan Of changing the method Of
electing the President and Vice
President and moving forward the
time for . newly-elected Congress
to begin its sessions.
WOULD ABOLISH ELECTIONS.
These changes were proposed In
a resolution reported to the Senate
yesterday by Senator Norris. who
presided over the Progressive con.
ference last week when. the leg.
islative program was adopted.
The resolution provides that the
new Congress shall meet within
so days after election. or on the
first Monday in January. and that
the terms of the President and
Vice President shall begin at noon
on the third Monday In January
instead of March 4. 1t also does
away with the electoral college and
provides for direct vote for Presi-
dent and Vice President.
The same proposal is made in .
resolution by Senator Ashurst.
which the Judiciary Committee con-
sidered at its meeting yesterday
morning. william Lowell Putnam,
chairman of a committee Of the
American Bar Association. ad.
dressed the committee In support
OF the suggested changes.
FAvORS WAITING PERIOD.
The President believes the Con-
stitution should not be "tinkered
with" and that the trainers Of the
Constitution acted wisely in pro-
viding an interval "for sober
thought" between the time Repre-
sentatives are elected and the time
they assemble TO carry. out their
duties. This interval. the Presi.
dent believes. enables the newly.
elected members to come into office
with a kno wledge Of the country's
needs.
1t Ia further stated to be the
Presidents belief that such q
change 10 unnecessary for the
reason that the Executive al
ready has the power to summon
Congress In Extra session when
ever an emergency demands leeis-
lative action prior to the time
fixed by the Constitution for the
Congress to assemble.
NORRIS EXPLAINS.
In his report accompanying
the resolution, Senator Norris
emphasized that regular sessions
Of the newly-chosen Congress do
not begin until q year and three
months after its members have
been elected. He said that when
the Constitution was adopted there
was reason for postponing the as
sembling Of Congress because
there waa neither rail nor tsle-
graphic communication and II
took a long time for the results
OF an election to become known.
The report adds:
The only direct opportunity
the voters have to exprsss their
wishes in regard to national leg
islation IL the expression Of their
will through the election Of
their representatives. In a gov
ernment by the people. the
wishes Of the majority should
be crystallized into legislation
as soon as possible after those
wishes have been made known.
To do otherwise 10 not only un.
fair to the citizenship At large
but IL is unfair to their servants
whom they have elected to carry
out their will.

Tomorrow is Wilson Day. The
former president himself plans
no observance OF the sixty-sixth

is reflected in the attention which
is paid TO this anniversary in the

informally by groups OF ardent
admirers. The orgy OF misrep-

ing of Woodrow Wilson. led and
encouraged by false and selfish
prophets, has long since passed
its zenith. In calmcr view, with
passions cooled, his fellow-men
seek the truth.

WANT WHAT YOU NEED

DlllLoSoPHERS tell us we can
have anything we want. provided
We want 1t enough
With certain qualifications this Is
true. Il explains why many men get
shings ont of life that their friends
never expected 10 get. They wanted
them, and they got them.
Getting things in that way for most
people involves considerable sacrifice
For example. IL a dry goods clcri;

II is for this reason that when you

That win involve thought. for none
" rs know what We need until we
levote considerable time TO reflection
and study.
There are men who want new wives,
when they have perfectly good wives
H..
therefore, ought not To want them.
There are other men who want
wealth, when they don't need wealth.
Still other men want steam yachts
when row boats would do them more
good. and private swimming pools
When they would ger more fun and

They may get these things, but

The wanting habit can grow into

careful t. want what you need.
II is well 10 remember in this con
nection that there are some very inn
portant needs that you ought TO want
first or all.
One OF them is a good reputation.
Another is good health. A third is
a home.
Want these badly enough to get
them. and confine your wants after
that TO things that are reasonably
certain to bring happiness.
Then want as hard IA you like, and
your wanting will not hurt YOU.
Want what You need and you will
