The Bristow resolution called atien- tion to Mr. Bryan's predecessors who served with silaries ranging from $3,500 to $8,000 and declared that "No one of them was compelled to neglect the duties of nix office because of t meagernens of the salary. It stated that the salary wae in- creased to $12,000 in 1911, but that “the great Commoner, who now occu- pies that office ha ed that the sal- 'y of $1,000 a mor js not sufficient to enable him to live comfortably and that he is compelled to neglect his du- ties and go on the lecture platform to earn @ Hving.” Attention w Mexican, Japi international qu: Department which the resolution al- leged were not receiving full considera- fon, ’ ¥ It ended by requesting the President to give prompt attention to matter and report to Congress t salary would: be sufficient so that Con) could ‘relieve the country of the gréat loss it suffers in being deprived of the services” of the Secretary of State dur- ing the time he may be on the lecture platform, Reading of the resolution was greeted by broad smiles on the Republican side of the chamber. Senators Kern, Lewis and other Democrats were on their feet before it was concluded and objected to its consideration, Under the rulea of the Senate it went over until the next session, Senator Williams, Democrat, who had not heard the introduction of the reao- lution, demanded to know who was re- sponsible for it, “In my weak way I have tried to ex- ny views of the existing situa- returned Mr. Bristow.
