VICE PRESIDENT
 DAWESO OCCUPIES
 ROLE CRUSADER
GULF WlDENs BETWEEN THE VICE PRESIDENT AND THE
 SENATE MEMBERS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 8. (P)
 -In his role of crusader for reform of the rules of the Senate, Vice-Pre- sident Charles G. Dawes will occupy at this session of Congress a position unique in the history of his high of flee.
 Most presidents of the past have been content to merely pre- side over the Senate without under taking to influence the affairs of that august body, but MT. Dawes with characteristic vigor threw down the gauntlet in his inaugural address last March 4, and since has taken his fight to the country.
 Since he has neither voice nor vote in Senate affairs-except in the event of tie lballot-there is no small amount of speculation as to how he will proceed further with his campaign. His idea has been that if the people could get the facts about the rule permitting a one man filibuster they would bring suf- fcient pressure to bear to have that rule changed.
 As the Congress assemblies there is no indication, however, that there has been any material change in the Senate sentiment on this point ad leaders on both sides say frank ly there is little likelihood that any effort at modification make headway during the new session.
 Opponents of any change in the rules, Republicans as we'll as Demo- crats, have not forgotten the lecture which the Vice President read to the Senate in the presence of the Pres ident, the Supreme Court, the House and the Diplomatic Corps and the abrupt manner in which he swept aside the time-honored custom of swearing in new Senators in small groups.
 Administration leaders during the brief special session of the Senate last March were able to hold off any open and vitrolic attacks on MT. Dawes from the floor such as some Senators had planned, but they ex- pect some efforts at the "haZing" of the Vice President during the next few months.
 The gulf which was opened be- tween the Vice President and some Senators on March 4 has been widen ed by the campaign he has conduct ed during the summer in the States of some senators who come up for reelection next year. ar
 These Senators naturally have not taken kindly to this campaign and they can be counted upon to oppose the Vice President in his rules fight with all of the vigor and influence at their command
 Mr. Dawes has some support in the Senate itself for modification of the rule under which a single Senator at the close of session can block legislation or even at any time in the session long delay final vote by means of a filibuster.
 Senator Curtis of Kansas, the Re- publican floor leader, and Senator Underwood of Alabama, a former Democratic leader, favor change in therules, but they concede that there is an overwhelming sentiment in the Senate against any change that will put a check on the right | of Senators to speak as long and as o.'er as they may desire On any sub- jcct.

ESTIMATE TOO LOW
Philadelphia Coroner Says His Fig urc of 1000 Liquor Deaths Did Not Show True Conditions.

Philadelphia, March 1S.-Coroncr Patton said today he was inclined to believe his estimate of 4,000 deaths q year in Philadelphia from poisoned lquor, as quoted by Governor Pinchot in his address before the state legis- lature yesterday in support of the united dry" bill, was too low. Since making his estimate several weeks ago of twelve deaths day from this cause the coroner said he had found 1t was 'too modest"
 Tt is a difficult matter" said Coroner Patton, to obtain accurate statistics, because in cases where I am morally certain that poisoned liquor caused death. I hesitate to give a verdict of alcoholism out of deference to the families. have investigated many cases where q man died In an accident after a week of debauchery. Who will say that alcohol did not kill him :? There are many more cases reported as deaths from variety of causes which are traceable to alcohol. It is impossible to estimate the number who die under physicians care after perhaps a long illness which was caused by poisoned liquor."
