) Senator'S for Each State
Provided in Me6raih Plan
q, N. A,,esss,sd Pres,


Senator McGrath. Democrat. OF
Rhode Island. set out to provide
his colleagues with more help--in
the form of 20 more Senators.
He introduced q proposed con-
stitutional amendment yesterday
to permit each State to name three
representatives to that branch OF
Congress. Under this plan the
States would elect a Senator every
two years for q six-year term.
Senator McGrath. chairman OF
the Democratic National Com
mittee, advanced these two reasons
for his move:
/. The - extra Senators would
allow committees work TO be
spread over a much larger group.
thus tightening the present sched-
ules and allowing more time for
preparation and consideration OF
legislation.
2. Voters could show better how
they felt about the way their
States and national interests were
being handled. II the senatorial
elections were held every two years.
At present only one-third OF the
Senate faces the vote test every
two years. .....-
Senator McGrath also pointed
out that the present system makes
1t possible for one Senator to
cancel out the vote OF bis State
colleague.

sion.

called to her heavenly home
! without a murmur of complaint
That was the characteristic of
her daily life, always working to

ambition caring little about the
Joys and entertainment of earth
but always doing something for
the good of her family

Fill her vacant chair in Heaven
But left one vacant here TO be
filled.
