Senator Pittman Now
 AtOdds With Dawes

New York, May 23.-tAP)-kcy pittman, Senator from Nevada, to- day took issue with President Dawes in the matter of cloture for the senate.
 In a letter to the New York Times the senator says extended debates lin the senate have advised the country with regard to vital legisla- ton and molded public opinion. The senate was founded for the protection of minori'ics, he adds, and to cstab- fish a cloturc such as exists in the house would nuliify the very pur- pose of the senate,
 Disclaiming any purpose to critl- i cize the house he writes;
 "Thn country has witnessed the re- suit of such q rule in the house" 1 Saying that every beginner in na- tional legislature, life is a crusader, Senator Pittman writes that for three years he fought for the same I things that Nr. Dawes now adVo- catcs, but the experience Of years Of legislative practice has convinced him that he was in error
 "It Is possible that our country suffers from too much legislation,'
 he adds.

 "I never bet, and l advise you not to bet" she is quoted as saying. If people knew as much about horses ss ] do. they would never risk their money on them. A horse may win the derby today and be hopeless to- morrow.
 Horses are the most unreliable ,reaturcs on earth. The trainers ucvcr put money on them, There is both chance and mischance in the hret race ever run, and- nobody can predict the result.
 You can wish us luck with Cross Bow, but don't put your money on 1t or any other horse"
