l\lr. MANN. I would ask the gentleman if he would not be willing to let this matter go over for a day or two. There will be plenty of opportunity to take it up. The gentleman knows that one resolution was reported into the House on this subject at the last session, and the gentleman himself introduced a resolution on the first day of the session. Now another resolution is reported in. All of these differ. Inasmuch as this is a proposed amendment to the Constitution, it seems to me that we ought to have full opportunity to consider the verbiage of it, l\lr. RUCKER of Missouri. l\fr. Speaker, answering first the gentleman from Michigan [Mr. YouNo], I say that, so far as I am concerned, I am perfectly willing to agree on a reasonable time for debate.

In answer to the gentleman from Illinois [Mr. MANN], while it is true, l\fr. Speaker, that various resolutions, all looking in the same direction, have from time to time been introduced and from time to time have passed the House, it seems to me that there is no reason for delaying this matter, because if the Representatives here ham convictions on any great public question, they have them on this.

Mr. MANN. But, if the gentleman will pardon me, I do not ask for delay so far as the general principle is concerned and is involved, and would not do so. Members are prepared to vote upon that. But as to the language which is to be employed in amending the Constitution, where different language may be subject to different constructions, it seems to me that the House ought to be given full opportunity for consideration. I will suggest to the gentleman that there are some provisions in the joint resolution as reported which seem to me susceptible of different constructions. I think the gentleman himself would desire to have it perfectly clear and beyond question.

1\Ir . MANN. In the la s t Co n ~r e ss the gentleman from l\Iissonri [l\Ir. LLOYD] introdu c ccl n joint resolution on the subject which ''as reported to the House favorably . It came up for con sid c sideration by unanimous cons en t. I objected to the unanimous consent for the consideration of the joint resolution at that time, and was very severely critici s ed by that side of the House. Now, this resolution is very different from that joint resolution. Mr. UNDERWOOD. Ilut the gentleman from Illinois i s not respon s ible for it if he does not vote for it. We assume the responsibility if we vote for it.

Mr . RUCKER of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I am going to consume but a few minutes' time in the discussion of this question . Some criticism has been made here that we are proceeding with undue haste, and suggestions have also been heard that the report accompanying this r e solution was printed within the last hour or two; that the resolution itself was only introduced during this session of Congress and within the last 10 days .

l\lr . Speaker, charged with responsibility to faithfully serve a great constituency, on the first day that this House convened, the first hour it was possible to do so, I introduced a resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States authorizing the election of Senators by a direct Y ote of the people . On the second day of this session this resolution was introduced . Just as soon as the committees of this House were formed I sought to advise members of the committee that this measure would be considered, and invited their attendance upon a meeting of the committee .

If there is blame to attach because members of the committee which reported this resolution have not had more time for consideration, it is not due to any fault of the committee on committees, which announced the make-up of the Democratic side of all the committees of this House even before the House met, but it is due to the committee on committees on the minor ity side, the gentleman from Illinois [Mr . MANN], who took until last Tuesday, day before yesterday, as I understand, to announce his committees .

But I am not going to discuss that ; neither will I be drawn into a discussion of the fact that various changes from time to time have appeared in the language employed in these seyeral resolutions which have been introduced . Let me say in a gen 1 eral way all of those resolutions present a similar thought and had a common purpose . They all respond to a sentiment in this Nation which is as wide as the Republic, a sentiment which permeates our :-l untry from the Atlantic to the Pacific, a sentiment which is ~ ompelling Representatives to respond to public will. The deliberate judgment of the people of the United States, of the great mass of the people, demands that we reform the method of electing Senators by changing from a system which has sullied the fair names of States and traduced the character of gentlemen who have sought and won high political honors. The people demand that Senators of the United States who serve them in the highest legislative tribunal in the world shall be elected by a direct vote and shall respona to the will of the people . Gentlemen dilate upon the great constitutional questions involved-and they are great questions-and who aclmo::llsh us to prudence and deliberation, forget that for 20 years or more the people of the United States have compelled obedience to their will in tllis Cllamber and secured the passage of innumerable resolutions through this House.

There has been gra~e difficulty, I grant, for the people to reach the ear of all public servants . Just as you remove in point of distance a man charged with great responsibilities from the source which gave him power, just to that ex.tent you diminish the opportunity of those who confer the power to get a response to popular appeal to that public servant. We stand with the great rank nnd file of the American people, and demand that this very clay the House shall again go on record in favor of this great reform measure, pledged in platforms and adyocated by leading spirits in all political parties . I trust the House of Representatives will again, and on this clay, send greetings to the American people that we yield to their desires and cheerfully respond to their demands by sending to the Senate of the United States a resolution providing for an amendment to the Constitution of the United States by which the people will be able to vote directly for United States Senators . As to the form of tlle resolution, I d e sire to state that according to my information the pending resolution has received more consideration in another body, has IJeen more deliberately, dispassionately, and intelligently discussed there than any other resoluti o n on this subject eyer submitted to either House of Congrei;s, and that - by rea s on of and on account of the fact that this identical resolution was fully and ably discussed in tha t body during the last session, and because it secured such a large support there, a support which will be augmented , I IJe Iie,-e, by others who are now MemlJers of that body, thus making the passage of this resolution an assured fact, your committee has accepted it and recommended its adoption by the For these reasons largely, and because of its own merits, we ha1e seen fit to report here in identical words the resolution reported by the Senate Committee on Judiciary during the las t session of Congress.

At the last session of Congress, as I recollect it, a resolution in favor of election of Members of the Senate by the direct vote of the people was passed in this body without a division . But , sir, this resolution goes much further than that, and · I wi s h the House to know exactly what they are doing when they vote upon this resolution. The gentleman from Missouri [Mr . Rucker] has said that this resolution is the same as that wllich was reported to the Senate by Senator BoRAII Inst winter, but he has omitted to say that it is a very different proposition from that which was finally submitted to the Senate and u11on which tlle final vote was taken. 'l'llis resolution provides for an amendment of section 4 of Article I, paragraph 1, of the Constitution . That has nothing to do directly with the q uestio n of whether the people should themselves vote for Members of the Senate or whether they should be chosen by the State legislatures. .
