Q series Of changes from the House

were:

rate company reserve system Of un-

RUSH HOLT CLAIMS
SENATORIAL SEAT.
West Virginian Appears to
Take Oath After 30th
Birthday Yesterday.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.


Rush D. Holt, who has been wait
ing at the Senate door, figuratively
speaking, for the last five and a half
months to qualify as Senator from
West Virginia, presented himself to-
day to take the oath of Office. He at
tanned yesterday the constitutional age
for Senate service-3o years.
Senator Nicely of West Virginia
called up the Holt case soon after the
Senate met today. Senator George,
chairman of the Privileges and Elec-
tons Committee, offered the resolu-
ton to seat Holt. Senator Hastings of
Delaware presented as a substitute a
resolution declaring the election of
Holt void. The first vote will come on
the substitute. Senator George opened
the debate, giving in detail the argu-
ments contained in the majority re-
port, proposing to seat Holt
1t is expected Holt will be seated.
The majority report of the Committee
on Privileges and Elections recon-
mendS that he be seated. The reso-
luton proposed by the committee re-
garding Holt follows:
Resolved, That Rush D. Holt is en-
titled to his seat in the Senate of the
United States as a Senator from the
State of West Virginia; it appearing
that he was 80 years of age at the
time when he presented himself to the
Senate to take the oath and to as
sumo the duties of Office"
Two Reports by Minority.
Two minority reports have beer
filed, holding Hollis election void BE-
cause he had not reached 80 years OF
age at the time when the term began
for which he was elected. One of these
was signed by Senator's Hastings oil
Delaware, Austin of Vermont anc
Dickinson of Iowa, all Republicans
The other was signed by Senator Hi
ram johnson of California, also Re.
publican.
The resolution proposed by thu
minority holds that the election o.
Holt was void. he not having attained
the age of 80 years at the commence.
ment of the term for which he wa!
elected" The term began January
3 last.
The majority report was presented
to the Senate by Senator George o.
Georgia, chairman of the committee
In it the majority admits that if Hol
had presented himself a day before
he reached the age of 80 years-set By
the Constitution for Senate service
the Senate would have been compelled
to reject him. The majority holds
however, that a Senator-elect does moi
automatically become a member oi
Congress at the beginning of the tern
of Office for which he was elected, anc
that therefore no substantial reason
can be found in the Constitution why
his qualification of age should bt
measured at that time.
Other Qualifications Cited.
The majority said that, while the
Constitution provides for the Sena-
torial term of six years, it is obvious
that a Senator ELECT is not from the
beginning of the term to which he Is
elected Senator in Congress. 1t con-
tended it was the purpose of the
trainers of the Constitution to ex-
clude from service in the Senate i'm
mature persons, so the age of 80
years as a minimum was provided as
qualification, along with two other

'BERMUDA VISITORS

HAMILTON, January 5.-Bermuda
bicycles, like Bermuda traffic laws,
have an individuality all their own.
Traffic keeps to the left on the high
way, and woe betide the rider VEN
turing forth at night with his bicycle
unlighted. English and Bermudian
bicycles have hand-operated brakes,
which are attached to the handlebars
and worked with the hand, not the
foot.
Yet in a surprisingly short time
visitors to the islands master these
complexities and set of gayly on their
wheels with the familiar little wicker
basket attached to the handlebars.
The basket, too, is a Bermuda insti-
tuition, just the right size to carry a
bathing suit, lunch. books. everything
that is necessary for days outing.
Bermudian bathing costumes are
quite informal. On Sunday after
moons families set off on their bicycles
for the many secluded bays along the
south shore, and leaving their wheels
in clump of bushes, they hang their
clothes among the cedar trees, put on
their bathing suits and spend the day
in the warm water of the gulf stream
or on the coral sand of the beach.
