Ore. Republican
Back Adoption Of
CIoture RuIino

washing IOIl, -. -. N1N1NFA).-
Sen. Wayne Morse, Republican, of
Oregon, last Monday told the Sen
ate that unless that body has a
rule which permits a majority to
shut off debate, it is controlled by
minority.
There is no way to escape that
conclusion" he declared, adding
"it is a fact"
The Oregon Senator served no
tice that when the Senate Rules
Committee reports the rules it has
approved, calling for adoption of
c!oture by > two-thirds vote of
Senators present and voting, he
will offer as an amendment the
resolution sponsored by him and
Sen. Hubert Humphrey, Democrat,
of Minnesota.
The Morse-Humphrey resolution
provides for adoption of cloture by
a simple majority vote of Senators
present and voting. Under it, after
cloture has been voted, each Sena-
tor would be allowed one hour to
speak on the merits of the issue
and, if he does not use his time, he
has the privilege of farming it out
to other Senators.
Il have no illusions about the
possibility of success at this ses-
sion," said Senator Morse, who
each year for several years now
has advocated limiting debate by
a majority vote.
The issue is question of public
policy, he said and he hopes the
people will take an interest in it.
There are available to us adequate
safeguards for protesting minority
rights in the Senate and at the
same time having a majority-vote
cloture rule" he asserted.
Senator Morse declared that he
has found it Simply impossible to
discover any logic in the PROPOSE
tion that in a parliamentary body
under our representative Govern
ment there is any justification for
continuing principle of minority
rule in the legislative body of the
people, which I always thought at
least was supposed to implement
majority rule"
Since the cloture rule was first
adopted in 1917, Senator Morse
pointed out, cloture has been in
voked only four times out of twen-
ty-one attempts. "If the rule had
required sixty-four votes, a consti-
tutional two-thirds, to close debate,
it would have been effective three
out of twenty-one times" he said.
The rule requiring the votes of
sixty-four Senators, or two-t thirds
! of the entire Senate membership,
was adopted in 1949.
Senator Morse also pointed out
that if the rule had required forty
nine votes, a constitutional ma
jority, it would have been effective
nine out of twenty-one times, and
if the rule had required a simple
majority, it would have been effec-
tive fourteen out of twenty-one
times since 1917.

THE VOICE
OF TIE
PEOPLE
By Kathryn N.cCarty

by hdCnryH N.CCdTCy
(Following is the fourth in the
series of informative articles on
OUR GOVERNMENT. In as t
weeks issue the begi ming of poll
teal parties in the United States
was given, showing how the adop-
ton of the Constitution brought
about division in political think
ing with the believers in a strong
central government called FED
ERALISTS and those who desired
the league between the thirteen in
dependent states to remain the
ANTI-FEDERALISTS.)
To meet the objections of many
moderate ANTI = FEDERALISTS
and to take the place of a BILL
OF RIGHTS" twelve Amendments
were adopted by Congress. Ten
of these became a part of the Con-
stitution and were intended to
guarantee FREEDOM OF REtI-
GION, SPEECH, PERSON and
PROPERTY. However, the ex-
treme ANTI FEDERALISTS op-
posed these, considering them de-
1usive and insufficient and calcu-
lated to create a fatal feeling of
security against a centralized gov.
ernment.
During the first Congress, the
Federalists claimed that Congress,
having the power to pass laws for
the collection of revenue and taxes,
might charter a bank for that pur-
pose. But the ANTT-FEDERAL-
lists claimed that such a bank
WAS NOT NECESSARY, though
they maintained it might be con-
venient, it was beyond the power
of Congress to establish.
This difference of opinion, trivial
at first, continued to be the subject
of bitter party feeling for fifty
years. However, through Alexander
Hamilton's influence the National
Bank Bill passed with the approval
of President Washington and con-
tinued in existence until 1911 when
the ANTT-FEDERALISTS refused
to recharter it.
While these measures were un-
der discussion, other grave mat
ters were considered. A petition for
the emancipation of the slaves was
presented to Congress, by the So
ciety for the Abolition of Slavery
on February II, 1890. It was re-
solved, THAT Congress have no
authority to interfere in the eman-
cipation or in the treatment of
slaves in any of the states"
In this first session of Congress
the EXCISE LAWS to provide
funds for the debts of the govern
ment was passed against the oppo-
sition of most of the ANTI-FED-
ERALISTS. In the Second Con-
gresS the number of FEDERAL
lists was slightly reduced, but the
Administration was supported gen.
orally by both parties. The organi-
zation of parties properly began
about this time (1792). The people
began to entertain a more defined
estimate of the new scheme of
government land to have positive
and settled opinions of it's powers.
And the NTT-FEDERALIST fac
tions, by union in resisting the
FEDERALISTS, had learned to

public because, unlike some States,
Illinois law makes no provision
for disclosing political contribu-
ltions. He said this is we'll under

make such contributions they do

vacy will be respected"
Nevertheless. he said. in view
|of the public interest in the
circumstances surrounding these
gifts, he undertook to canvass a
number Of them by telephone. He
expressed regret he had not been
able to reach all of them.
II can only apologize to them
and express the hope that they
will understand my situation, "
Gov. Stevenson added.
"For the same reason, have
been reluctant, as I indicated in
Baltimore, to disclose the names
Of the officials to whom these
gifts were made. In rewarding
them I do not mean to imply that
I am in any way displeased with
or value less the services of many
Others"
Gov. Stevenson said he had
been advised that some Of the
officials who got gifts have stated
publicly they did not receive any
extra compensation for their
services. In justice to them, he
said, they made these statements
in good faith. "for they rightly re-
garded these as gifts and not as
compensation"
The disclosure of Gov. Steven
sons campaign finances resulted

from a telegram he received a
week ago from Kent Chandler, a
Chicago businessman. After Demo
Gratis had joined in criticism OF
Senator Nixon for accepting an
$4,000 expense fund raised
through private contributions in
California, Mr.. Chandler suggested
that Gov. Stevenson explain that
he had approved gifts from pri-
Ivately raised funds to some OF
his State officials.
Gov. Stevenson said there had
been charges that other political
contributions were made during
his administration as Governor OF
Illinois.
"Of course there were," he said.
1880. 1851 and 1852 were all elec-
ton years in Illinois.
Campaign contributions were
received in all these years - and
they We're spent for political pur-
poses. No one during my admin
istration ever had to make a po-
litical contribution to do business
with the State of Illinois or to
work for it."
The Governor said the balance
remaining from such funds when
ne was nominated for President
has been turned over to my sue
cessor candidate on the Demo-
cratic State ticket" in Illinois.

He said Gen. Eisenhower now

more important than who wins
the election, and added that,

America to reject "the new isola-

Eisenhower ADDING
Campaign Experience
But Showing Strain
By Crosby S. Noyes
Sfor Stoff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Sept. 27-Gen.
Eisenhower. whose chances Of
election seem to be related to how
close he sticks to the grass roots,
is back in New York. a confirmed
and not inexpert whistle-stopper.
If the optimistic statements of
his high command are any indi-
cation. the pattern for the rest Of
the G. o. P. campaign has been
set. There will be fewer major"
speeches before huge audiences.
There will be less emphasis on
coast-to-coast television and radio
hookups. There will be less work
for the speech writer's.
The advisers think-and they
know their business-that Gen.
Eisenhower Is at his best when he
is just chatting from the back
platform of his train. And those
who accompanied him on his 12-
State tour, through some 80 such
appearances, are inclined to agree.
Audiences Friendly.
Everywhere he went on his g.
S00-mile swing, the story was the
same. Even in the heart of enemy
territory, the turnout at the sta
tions startled the most calloused
crowd-estimators. They came to
see at least as much as to hear.
They were uncritical audiences,
invariably friendly and invariably
responsive to the politics Of what
the general had to say.
So cheering has been the effect
of the tour that once-cautious
Republican tub-thumpers are now
talking of a landslide in Novem-
ber. The general himself is in
his most cheerful frame Of mind
since before the convention-partl
of which may be explained by the
almost astonishing escape from
the Nixon incident.
The only question is, can he
take it?
Gen. Eisenhower will be 81 on
October H. He says, with empha-
sis, that dawn-to-duSk whistle
stopping is the most strenuous
work he has ever taken on.
HOarse and Weary.
As the G. o. P. candidate re-
turns to his New York headquar-
ters, his voice is hoarse. He is
weary in mind and body from the
strain of trying to think up some
thing new to say as many as IL
times a day. It is a pace that
some politicians, used to crowds
and facile in self-eXpression,
might take in stride. But the gen.
eral. although he is learning fast,
still has to work hard.
He has just two days to rest.
On Tuesday, the grind starts
all over again, with a flying visit
to Columbia, S. c., where he will
sound out the effect of Gov.
Byrnes' recent Endorsement. From
there, without break, the cam
paign road leads clear to the West
Coast and back. Between now
and october 24-as far as the
schedule has been worked out
the general will visit 20 States and
carry his message to crowds in
more than 100 cities.
II After November, whatever hap
pens at the polls. they say that
one general is planning on q nice
