TO ABOLISH SENATE
Washington, April 27— Declaring
that the senate has run its course,
Representative Berger, the socialist
memhei from Wisconsin, introduced
a resolution today calling for the
abolition of the upper branch of
congress. In the preamble on the
resolution. Representative Merger
states that the senate has become a
iselss and obstructive body, a men-
ace to the liberties of the people and
an obstacle to social growth.
Many of its members, he says, ^re
representatives not of a state or pub-
' lie. but of certain predatory com-
binations "and a body which by rea
son of the corruption often attending
the election of its members, has fur-
nished the gravest public .scandals in
the history of the nation."
■ The Berger resolution would abol-
ish the senate and vest all legislation
powers in the house of representa-
tives, whose enactments subject to
the referendum, shall be the supreme
law of the land-
The referendum clause of the reso-
lution follows:
"Upon petition by five per cent of
I the qualified voters for members of
the lower house of the state legisla-
tures, in each of the three-fourths of
the states, filed within 9o days alter
the passage of a law by the house of
representatives, such law shall be
submitted to a general referendum,
and if such law receives a majority oi
all votes cast at such referendum, it
shall be in effect, but if it fails of a
majority, it shall be null and void."
Representative Berger declared to-
day that the senate had become in
some respects similar to the house of
lords, lie denied that the senate
should be regarded as a "check*
against sudden upheavals in govern-
ments, declaring that (here is nothing
more conservative than the great mass
of the people Speaking of the refer-
endum, he said:
"The referendum is, in reality, the
most conservative political power in
existence, as the example of Switzer
land proves, where it has bten in use
for many years. The referendum is
infinitely stronger than all the states
in the world, because no Democratic
power is great enough to resist it, and
yet no progressive measures or re-
form is safe until it Is accepted by
the majority of the people."
