The Norris Resolution.

The Senate for the fourth tine has
gone on record overwhelmingly in
favor Of the Norris resolution to DO
away With lame duck" sessions of Con-
gress Whether the House leaders will
permit the Measure to come to vote
a. the present session remains to be
seen. Unless they have experienced a
change of heart the chances are against
action In the lower house. although
the resolution probably would be
adopted by that body if it were brought
to vote. 1t proposes an amendment 10
the Constitution and requires two
thirds vote of both houses of Congress
before it can b, submitted to the States
for ratification.
Three times the resolution has been
favorably reported to the House after
it passed the Senate. only to languish
On the calendar and die OF sleeping
sickness. The resolution proposes a
constitutional amendment fixing the
beginning of the terms of President
and Vice President at noon on the
fifteenth day of January, and the
terms of Senators and Representatives
at noon on the second Gay Of January
following their election in the preced-
ing November. Its adoption would do
away with the Go-called shor; session
Of Congress. Under existing conditions
q new Congress does not actually con-
vene in regular session until year and
one month after its members have been
elected. Nor does a new President take
Office until four months after his cleo
ton. Under such conditions the change
in administration and legislative func-
tons OF Government desired By the
voters is postponed unreasonably Men
continue to make laws after they have
been turned down at the polls, an
anomalous condition.
But there is another important rea-
son for the adoption of the proposed
constitutional amendment which Is
sometimes overlooked. Under the Con-
stitution as it now stands. IL in the
general election there should be no
choice Of President and Vice President
By reason OF the failure of any candi-
date TO receive majority Of the elec-
toral votes. and the election should be
thrown into the House. the old House
would be called upon TO determine the
election. and not the new one jus.
elected by the people. II might hap
pen that members of the old House.
who had just been rejected at the polls.
wouli be called upon 10 determine the
election of Chief Executive for tl1r
next four years. They might defeat
the purpose Of the people. who had
Just defeated them in the general cleo
ton.
Arguments advanced against the
adoption Of the Morris resolution run
TO desire not 10 tamper with the Con-
stitut,on; TO permit cooling of period
before change o. administration. But
those arguments do not appear TO bear
the same weight or to be as convincing
as the arguments advanced In support
OF the proposed change. The short ses-
sion. with It's fijbuSters and legislative
jams, would become thing Of the past,
II the amendment were adopted.
