 Supplanting of the shipping bill came as a surprise, both to the re- publican and democratic sides.

INAUGURATION DATE CHANGED
 BY M MEASURE
Session of Old Congress After Election of New One Would Be Abolished If House and Legislatures Fa-
 vor the Bill

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 13. The Norris amendment to the federal constitution eliminating the present session of an old Con- gress after election of a new Con- gress, and changing the date of in- auguration of the President from March to the third Monday in January, was approved today by the Senate.
 The resolution embodying the amendment was adopted after brief debate and by a vote of 63 to 6. It now goes to the House with approval there before ad- journment of Congress regarded as problematical.
 The senators voting against the resolution were Broussard, demo- crat, Louisiana; King, democrat, Utah; France, republican, Mary land; Nelson, republican, Minne- sota; Overman, democrat, North Carolina, and Reed, democrat, Mis- souri.
 Such an amendment was proposed by the new progressive bloc immedi- stely after 1t was organized, and probably is the first proposed change in the constitution to be approved by the Senate after coming out of any committeee other than the Judiciary committee. It was reported from the agriculture committee, of which Sen at0r Norris is chairy1aor tuta for Senate resolution intro- duced soon after the beginning of the present session by Senator Caraway democrat, Arkansas, providing that members of Congress defeated in an election should not vote on other than routine business during the session of the old Congress following elections.
 The Caraway rsolution had been re- ferred to the agriculture committee at the request of its author, who said that if it went to the judiciary com mittee 1t would go on into the sleep that knows no awakening." The ag- riculture committee has among it's members a number of members of farm and progressive blocs and it in- corporatd in it's draft of the amend ment a provision changing the present indirect methods of e1ecting Presi- dents and Vice Presidents. This ac- tion. however, was eliminated today before the final vote on motion of Senator Norris.
 President Opposes It
 Opposition to the section had been expressed both by democrats and re- publicans and President Harding some weeks ago let it be known that he did not look with favor upon it.
 The resolution as adopted Is as fol- lows:
 "KesClved, by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress as- sembled ttwo-thirds of each house concurring therein). that the follow ing amendment to the constitution be, and hereby Is, proposed to the states to become valid as part of the con- stitution when ratified by the legis- 1atures Of the several states as pro- vided by the constitution:
 That the terms of President and Vice President of the United States elected after adoption of this amend ment shall commence at noon on the third Monday in January following their election.
 tThat the Congress shall assemble at least once in each year. and each meeting shall be on the first Monday in January unless they shall by law appoint a different day"

Kept >worshipers Awake.

To the tithing man in New England
fell the task of keeping worshlpers
awake during church services. He
had a long staff with a knob on one
end to tap the sleeping men, while on
the other end was fox tall to dangle
In the face Of sleeping women.
One Allen Bridges is spoken Of In
one Of the early journals. He was
very proud Of having been appointed
to wake the sleepers. and was de-
termined to show his authority. He
fastened a thorn to one end Of his
waking weapon.
"On ye last Lords Day he did spy
Mr.. TomlIns sleeping" the Journal
reads. "He gave him grievous prick
In the hand. Whereupon Mr.. Tomlins
did spring up much above ye floor and
with terrific force strike hys hand
against ye wall.
"And to ye great wonder Of all.
