Direct election of United States senators by the people was authorized and made compulsory when the Connecticut legislature rat ified the constitutional amendment submitted by congress less than year ago. Ratification already had been given by 85 states. While the proclamation of the sec retary of state announcing final rati fication of the amendment by 36 states is required by law, Senators Bristow and Borah leaders In the di rect elections fight in congress, ex pressed the opinion that the amend ment 1s for all practical purposes now a part of the constitution. "Any man who may be elected to the senate hereafter must be- elected directly," said Senator Borah. The new amendment to the consti tution for the popular election of sen ators Is the seventeenth to be adopt ed. It reads: "The senate of the United States shall be composed of two senators from each state, elected by the peo ple thereof, for six years; and each senator shall have one vote. The electors In each state shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the state legislatures.
