The five “administrative” com- mittees would be Appropriatons; Ex- penditures; Rules and Administra~ tion of the Senate; Claims; and District of Columbia. It’s almost impossible for the lay- 4 man to comprehend the unwieldi- ness of the committee system today; | the confusions that result from | overlapping jurisdictions and a lack | of cooperation between Senate and| House commitees, which Senator La Follette’s bill specifically provides | for; and the great power the com- § mittees and committee chairmen | exercise in promoting or withhold- ing legislation, The system “just grew” and is| perpetuated because chairmen und‘ | members in both chambers jealously | guard the authority and patronage | | which seniority in these legislative | groups give them, Therein lies the rub in changing the system now. Actually only four | of the present committees would be perpetuated without change. That means that the members, numbering | | from seven to 20-odd, and the chair- men of 29 commitees would certainly balk at the prospect of losing these | Senatorial plums. The situation | would be even worse in the House | where there are 45 standing and |seven special committees, on which membership numbers up to 43 rep- resentatives. | STOCK QUOTATIONS NEW YORK, July 24. — Closing | quotation of Alaska Juneau mine ‘AlASKA COASTA[ | FLIGHTS ARE MADE T0 MANY POINTS On a flight to Excursion Inlet yesterday the Alaska Coastal Air- lines took W.
