SENATE DID NOT
VOTE SENTIMENT
ON LIQUOR ISSUE
Viqe President Mrashall t Says
Secret Poll Would Shtw tipper
House Opposed to Prohibition.
By
David tAwrenoe ; i:
(Ccr4sbtsd, : ' ; S
Washington, May 15. -Vice Pres
ident Thomas R. Marshall has pre
sided over theisenate of the United
States for seven years and can be
therefore expected to know where
of he speaks when he says that if
prohibition bait been submitted ' to
av- secret vote.Mt would not hare
gotten 10 votei in the senate.
The writer Mked the vice president
te amplify his ; statement, which wae
originally made before the Virginia bar.
SELIEYES IIT BOHIBITIO ;?
T want It td be understood at the
outset. said the vice president, , "that
X Tseltsve la the enforcement of the con
stitutional amendment on prohibition.
It Is here, and i Is the law, and should
be enforced, but I believe that if the
amendment had. been voted upon ac
cording to the individual convlctidn of
members of thf senate, it would not
have gotten to votea Now, X am not
impugning the vote of anybody, vl have
never seen sny representatives of the
brewers er the . Anti-Saloon league
around congress, and "wouldn't snow
them If they were there. I believe that
the men who voted for prohibition and
for woman suffrage, for instance,
theurht the people a majority of their
constituents wanted the amendments
passed. But that Isn't my theory , of
representative government.
C58TITri!5T MISUICDEBSTOOD
-"As I told the lawyers at Richmond,
the people of this country didn't in
tend. In my judgment, that their rep
resentatives should be guided by their
constituents, by t that elected repre
sentatives should act for them. I don't
think when people hire a lawyer . that
they, should ask him to do what they
want. Advice Should not come from
the client to the lawyer, but from the
lawyer to the client. If the, client
doesn't like the ad vice, he can get an
other lawyer.' -13- -..'
That's the same with representative
government. ' The people. In my opinion,
should trust their representatives to act
for them. If they don't like what their
representatives j do. they can , select
others and thus repudiate what ha been
done.- 't
- Then If you i had been a member of
the senate you would have voted against
the prohibition amendment?" ' " ;
WOtTLIlfHAVE VOTED 21 0 ?
"Oh yes7; and my- views have been
well known. Jilnd you, I do not use
liquor, never serve it at my table and
X would to God that no one else did.
But X object tot the way prohibition has
been Imposed, though again I must in
sist now thjat It; is here the law must be
enforced. I ;
"As a mattes' of fact. It respective of
the Question of personal habits, mem
bers ef the senate whose views about
polios powers ef the several states co
incide with my own surrendered their
opinions when they voted, simply be
cause they, thought it was the wish of
the people of their states. That wasn't
leadership or representative government,
tn my understanding of the term.
LAWYERS LOSING IKIit7ECE
"Indeed, lawyers like statesmen are
losing their influence because they are
not telling their clients what is the law
and what should be done. Instead, law
yers are listening to boards of directors
and trying to; accomplish what those
boards want d on b often against the
best judgment: of the lawyers them
selves. f i
: The vice president was indorsed by
the Virginia Bar association for the
presidency, a compliment of the oc
casion, no doubt, for Mr. Marshall Isn't
a candidate,, ictive, passive, receptive
er even interested. Maybe if he were
be wouldn't express himself so frankly.

ALIE1T PllOFKBTT-XTKCHAKeED
This war ending declaration, now to
go before the I house for concurrence
shead of the supposedly Inevitable pres
idential veto, also provides that pending
the negotiation ; and ratification of the
peace treaty with suitable provisions
for satisfaction of claims against the
German government : alien property
shall remain in its present status.
It was on this point that most of the
debate today hinged. Senator Pomerene
of Ohio charged that the United States
was attempting to assume ail the bene
fits of the Versailles treaty while .tak
ing none of the obligations. '
"The resolution does net accept airy
ef the benefits," replied Senator Knox
of Pennsylvania. "It provides that they
shall not be waived."
POMEBEHK DESOUirCES SCHEME
Senator Pomerene, while denouncing
this "unconstitutional Republican
scheme" for ending the war, did not
spare the president entirely. - He said
that the "unalterable ' senate majority
was largely to blame for the situation,
but he admitted that the executive him
self was not entirely free from blame.
"It is virtually a scheme among the
Republicans, to do what they think is
putting the president la a bole, said
Senator Pomerene. - l
"But it may i not work out so. The
people know wherein Is Invested the
treaty-making power." .
Senator Underwood, DemocratJo lead
er, denounced the "ineffective" resolu
tion as a "smoke screen by which the
Republican majority hopes to blind the
American people to the real responsi
bility for the failure of the senate ts
ratify : any peace treaty.' , .,
"There is absolutely nothing this reso
lution does accomplish for this country,"
said Senator Walsh . "It should be en-,
titled 'a measure for the relief of the
German people,. We would give every
thing and , get nothing. It . Is nothing
more than economic idiocy. We would
abolish all restrictions on . the importa
tion of goods bearing the trade mark
'Made ift Germany without any agree
ment that She will admit ours."

STOPPERS FACE SERIOUS
PROTJLI3IS, DHX7LARES TEAL
Never before have so many things
been demanding the attention, of ship
pers of freight as are "on the boards"
right now. :-; I
Such is the message brought from
Washington, IX C. and other Eastern
centers by J,? N. TeaJU Who has returned
to his tome here after spending several
weeks at Washington.- - ; . V
"The situation is no longer a matter
of rates, but a matter of railroads and
is dally becoming more Involved, as is
the prospect of its solution. Just now
there are two very important matters
before us. -., , ,..-;:-';.-;.
I3f CREASES ARE FACED
"The first is the matter bf an Increase
In rates, effective generally over the
nation, in railroad rates and the second
is , the requested increase In ' railroad
wages. The former problem la one in
which the railroads have asked for a
rate increase that will produce prac
tically a billion dollars over the revenue
Of last year.. The Increase would apply
on the -Eastern, Southern and Western
classifications. ? , ;
"Without exception there is no desire
to stand, in the way of .the railroads
getting needed revenue, hat there are
very fair differences of opinion as to
how those increases. should be obtained.
Tor instance,, there is a logical dif
ferenoe or opinion when the railroads
propose to produce the billion dollar ad
ditional revenue by assessing greater.
freight rates and leaving the passenger
rates just where they are, .
PASSENGERS SHOULD HELP
' "Passenger traffic is approximately
one-quarter of the total and the bur
den that many people think passenger
traffic should heir would, by the terms
of the. railroads application, fall upon
shippers of freight. The- losers .Would
have to pay it all Many people prop
erly believe all classes of traffic should
pay their share of the increases. -
"The Increases are suggested on a
percentage basis. Manifestly that Is
another ground for different viewpoints.
A percentage increase would throw the
whole .rate structure out of gear.
"The questions are - of : vital import
ance in the West, where we are at-a,
distance from markets, and we must
give - more attention to the application
ot the proposed Increases.
QtHtCK ACTI02T SEEDED
" ''Hearings oh these applications have
been set for May 24, which makes it
almost Impossible . for Western shrppers
to get representation. Something must
be done. Shippers must act promptly
Or their opportunity to protest rate in
equalities will be gone. .
"Other, vastly Important' hearings are
those of . the inter miounta in rate case,
an offshoot of the Spokane case, set for'
Spokane next Monday and for San
Francisco, the following Monday.
"The express rate case' hearing to be
held at New York, involving applications
for increased ' rates representing mil
lions of dollars, is another that needs
attention." -. ' .
