SENATE WILL
HEAR MAN Who
never SPEAKS
Michigan Member to Make
First Address in
Five Years.
BY ROBERT TALLEY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-This is
a story about the Senator who never
speaks and the reason why.
After five years as member of a
legislative body which boasts that
its debate is absolutely unlimited,
Senator Woodbridge N. Ferris,
(Dem0 is getting ready to deliver
his first real speech on the Senate
floor.
His record for silence probably
is unequaled in the history of the
chamber, where there is one con-
tinuous round of speeches and which
remembers the cord-breaking IT.
hour filibuster address by the late
Senator La Toilette.
Other Senators probably will gasp
with establishment in the next few
days when the gray-haired, 75-year-
old veteran from Big Rapids, Mich,
arises and delivers a one hour
speech in support Of a federal de-
partment of education which he has
just prepared. Only twice before in
five years has he arisen, these times
to read short articles in favor of
prohibition and the World Court.
Chatauqua Lecturer
In view Of the fact that Senator
Ferris has been a Chatauqua lee
turer of long experience and that
he won his seat in 1923 with fierce
campaign against Newberryism,

Washington has long been puzzled
over his silence in the Senate.
IJa evyNIoiond n tOdav

He explained it today.
II learned my lesson soon after I
came here five years ago." Senator
Ferris said. II had been public
speaker all my life, but it didn't
take me long to see the futility of
this loud speechmaking in the Sen
ate; the needless debate for days
over a question that has already
been decided before the vote is
taken, the constant iteration and re-
iteration of the same set of facts.
Work in Committees
eff the big corporations attempted
to conduct their business in the way
the Senate conducts the Govern
ment's business they would be bank
rupt in almost no time.
ST soon found that the real work
here is done in the committees7it
is there that legislation is sifted and
analyzed and decisions made-and
for that reason I have devoted most
of my attention to the committees OF
which I am a member. They are
Foreign Relations, Education, Post
office and Library.
THE Senate may boast about its
freedom Of debate, but that's largely
what's the matter with it today"

Then the speaker put this ques-

and confused by the castigation laid
upon them through justice outraged,
properly restrain one in a political
camapign from speaking with the
candor which truth itself demands?"
