TO STOP FILIBUSTERING
THE COUNTRY REQUIRES IT.
Cloture Resolution to Terminate
RiKlit of Minority Veto Introilutwl
Yesterday.
Washington, July 14.?Senator
Owen of Oklahoma today introduced
an amendment to the senate rules
which he said would put an end to
filibusters in that body. It is entitled
"The Cloture Resolution or the
Resolution to Terminate the Right
of Minority Veto," and, speaking to
the measure today, he said it was not
introduced because of any fear of a
filibuster against the tariff bill.
"I wish it to be clearly understood,"
he said, "that my demand for
a change in the rules of the senate
is not at all due to the idea that the
adoption of such n rule Is necessary
in order to pass the tariff bill or
any other particular bill pending or
to be brought forward. My reason
for this demand is that I think the
welfare of the nation requires it:
that the right of the American people
to a prompt redemptibn of
party promises is involved."
TEXT OP RESOLUTION.
The resolution as presented today
reads:
"That debate or dilatory motions
which in the opinion of the senate
are Intended to prevent a majority
of the senate from exercising the full
.and free right to control any matter
rending before the senate either in
legislative or executive sessions may
be terminated by a veto of a majority
of the members of tbe senate upon
notice given by the senate: Provided,
however, that this rule shall
not be invoked to prevent reasonable
i' oha f o Kv on v ennntnr w "H A ronuncto
sin opportunity to express his views
upon such pending matter within a
time to be fixed by the senate.
'"The notice given by the senate
under this section, except by consent,
shall not be less than a week, unless
Mich request be made within the last
t \\o weeks of the session."
The Oklahoma senator declared
the rules of the senate have been
such as to prevent action, to put the
power in the hands of a small fractiontlon
or of a single Individual to
obstruct legislation without reacon
and to prevent action by Congress in
r< sponse to the national will.
"And many a good bill has died in
this way," be added.
NO RUIjKS OF CONDUCT.
"The senate of the United Sta'js
has roles for its conduct," the senator
continued, "that make it almost
impossible to get a bill through, except
by unanimous consent, where a
resolute minority is opposed to the
passage of the bill. Under the socalled
privilege of 'freedom of debate/
a group of senators can hold

odious pretense of freedom of debate. 1
AN ADEQUATE RULE. ]
1 "This thoughtless rule of unlimit- 1
ed freedom of debate was adopted in 1
1806, when there were 26 senators '
who met to discuss their common af- 1
iairs, only a very few bills were
brought befoi-e the senate, and who ]
had no cone "on that unlimited 1
freedom of deba?.* really meant a mi- ]
nority veto. ]
"Now that the senate has 96 members,
representing 90,000,000 people, ]
when its interests are of the most |
gigantic importance, when its mod- ]
ern problems of stupendous conse- i
quence are demanding prompt and t
virile action, when hundreds of important
bills are pending, this strikes \
a posture of inscrutable wisdom and j
admonishes the world not to touch
this sacred principle of unlimited ]
'freedom of debate.' The venerable ]
i age of this foolish precedent will not
save it from the just charge of im- ,
becillty."
Senator Owen cited the cloture
rule in vogue in France, Germany. .
