Washington, D. C., June 11.—The Joint resolution introduced by Con- gressman Walsh of Massachusetts rel- ative to the vice president having au- thority tu act whenever the president is out of the country is attracing much netice and is likely to meet with fayer. The Walsh - resolution reads “tmat any absemce of the president from the limits of the United States for a period exceeding 24 hours is hereby declared to be inability to dis- charge the power and duties of said officc and such inability shall termi- nato upon the actual return of the presidcnt to the seat of government. That during the period of such in- ability the viee president shall act as president with full power and author- ity 1o discherge the duties of said of- ce.” Congressman Walsh stated emphat- ically to The Bulletin correspondent that the resolution was in no sense a criticism or intended to embarrass the president, but was offered because he believed the business of the United States was suffering from lack of an executive to sign bills and transact other business ordinarily brouzht be- fore the president. Mr. Walsh ex- pressed himself as convinced the pres- ident was acting within his constitu- tional rights In attending the peace conference as head of the American delegation, and that he fully appre- ciatedl the importance of the position; but in referring to the prolonged ab- sence of the president, which has al- ready extended into seven months. Mr. Walsh said: “The United States ought not to,be made to suffer by such ab- sence, and if the vice president has full authority to act%in place of the| absent president, routine dork done by | congress will not be held up, as is now | the case. I believe congress is the| proper body to determine what consti- | tutes inability to perform the duties of | president. We now have hefore eon- | gress a great number of bills calling for a total of billions of dollars needed | to carry on the government and meet | expenses already contracted. There bills cannot become law until they re ceive the signature of the executive or until davs shall have elapsed after they have beén presented to him for signature and he has not signed them. Merely leaving such bills at the White House does not put them in his hands, nd they cannot reach him under ex- | isting conditions except hy special courier sent on a trans-Atiantic trip| of 3,000 miles. He may then sign them | and that fact be cabled to this country, | but the enacted law must make an-| other ocean trip of 3,000 miles before | the original paper is back here. All, this takes three or more weeks. | Take, for instance, the appropriation ' Is which we are now passing. We| they must be signed before June | 20th, when all appropriations for the| present fiscal year exnire. We do not know when the president will return| to the United States. If the bills are | held for his return. he may not be able to sign them in time; if they are started across the water in the hands of a courier and the president should | decide to make a_quick return, then he could mot sign them in time. Mean- while the hole country suffers. Tn fact ,all executive husines of this great’ country is held un by the ab-| sence of the president in Europe. while | the vice nresident, who is his legiti- mate successor in case of disabifit sits in the senate every day and could sign the bills and keen the vu.'rentl usiness up to dateNif the question of | bat constitutes inab determin- | | ed so as to include absence from the | country.” While there is but small chance that the Walsh resolution will pass in time to do much good hefore June 30th, it | will at least be a strong safeguard in | the future, should its adoption by eon-| | gress follow.

I am reading my paper.” “This haggard look, insisted the man from Hyde Park in a determined tone, “is due to the fact that Imogene is resurrecting all my buried past in the way of clothes. She is cleaning out the closets ard life is not worth living, because ske insists on calling me to review the remains of my dead and gone sins whenever she unearths anything particularly atrocious. Now T ask you, do I impress you as a man who would pick out a suit with rec pin_stripes and purple fleeks in it “Oh, T wouldn't put desperate deeds beyond you,” said the Woodlawn man, “1 know I never bought that suit” insisted the Hyde Park man hotl “much less ever wore it. It is a suit that would rightfully call out the pick of the central station detectives and the most innocent child on viewing it ‘would expectantly watch for the wear- er to produce three little shells and begin the game. “Yet Imogene insists T owned that suit the summer we spent in Wiscon- sin. If any one asks what is the mat- ter with that state T can tell them. I know I never bought it. Some burglar got in and left it when he went with one of my respectable, chastely severe suits, the sort 1 am in the habit of ordering. could view what that woman has dragged to light Weber and Fieids' hats which in moments of enlighten- men I had carefully hidden in the darkest recesses; tall, mournful stove- pipes that must have made me look like a perambulating smokestack of a foundry; large floppy straws that need only a pretty bow of blue rib- bon and a bunch of daisies to be per- fectly ladylike; little tight derbies that no sane man would wear unless he in- tended to clog dance before the foot- lights and sing vaudeville songs through his nose. “I am sure I do not know where Imogene got them. I had thought they were safely interred. It just goes to show how negessary it is to lead a pertect life if you do not want your declining days to be overshadowed by a great and permanent SOTrow. “If only she would let me dump them in the alley or give them to the unfortunates who have to take what is handed to them!
