Xinety-one firemen whose resigna tions have been accepted by the city commission will quit at six o'clock to night, if media: ion fn ls. The sil na tion, which will leave the department manned by recruit firemen tonight, was brought about by differences be tween the firemen and their chief and lias resulted in the clref's resignation. The res:gnations of the firemen came last Thursday after the city commission failed to render n prompt decision after hearing a petition of the fire fighters asking the removal of Fire Chief William H. Hywater. whom they charged with arbitrary conduct. After n hasty meeting at which the firemen's resignations were accepted aim me cniet sustained. h!ef Hy water voluntarily resigned and the comnvssion offered to reinstate the men individually. At a meeting late last night the resigned men said they would quit in accordance with their res'gn.ition. (Continued from page one) principles of representative consti tutional government. Answering sev eral arguments against a cloture rule, the vice-president said: "The purpose is not to prevent sen ators from fully discussing a question, but to make impossible the prolonging of debate to prevent a majority from settling a question." Presents Duty "As vice-president, elected, not by the senate, or by a state, but by the people of the I'nited States to pre side over the senate," he said in part, "I conceive myself charged with the duty of calling attention to methods of senate parliamentary procedure in their relation to the national interest. The fact that of practically all de liberative and legislative assemblies of the world, the Cnited States senate. almost alone, chooses to conduct its business under rules which do not provide properly effective cloture, em phasizes this duty on my part. "The issue presented in the move ment for ri'i'orm in the present rules of the senate of the I'nited States is non-partisan, non-sectional and pat riotic. An improvement in these rules lo expedite the conduct of business is as impersonal and non-partisan a question as was that of the adoption of the budget system improving the conduct of routine governmental business. "This reform does not mean that the right to be heard at length upon any important question shall be de nied any senntor. The purpose is not to prevent senators from fully debating a question but to make im possible the prolonging of debute to prevent a majority from Rett ling n question. The purpose is not to de prive a minority of the right to be heard, but to bestow upon the ma jority the full right to legislate. The purpose is not to interfere with the protection of all proper rights of a senatorial minority, but to prevent the improper use of a itunority right under the senate rules from rendering the pennte itself impotent. It is im portant that these rules give every senator a square deal, but it is im perative that they give the American people a square deal. "I nppeal to the citizens of the dif ferent states to impress upon their individual senators by correspondence, by resolution or petition their atti tude on this proposition. If the peo ple believe in this reform in govern ment, their belief should be reflected in the attitude of the senators them selves in rectifying the rule. The I'nited States senate is responsive to public sentiment, but seuutors roust know that in the states which they represent this sentiment exists. "This appeal is not iu a spirit of hostility. It is to form and present an issue upon which a fair test of public opinion can be made, lr is to the end that those who are the source of governmental power may express themselves upon a remedy in a lawful way."
