most bitter fights in the history of the

Roosevelt men were put in one part of
the special train that brought them
here and the Taft men in the other
and the doors between were kept lock-
ed. 1t is expected the convention would
split into two sessions and two sets
of delegates to Chicago would be nam

Providing for Economy in

(Eational News Association)

WASHINGTON, May vigorously
asserting that it is not conceivable
that this government stands helpless
before the giant foreign monopolies
the house committee on merchant ma
rine made an unanimous favorable re-
port today on the Humphrey bill,
which will close the ports of the Unit
ed States to trust owned foreign ves-
sells. The foreign shipping monopoly is
declared to have been defiant and i'm
pudent." 1t is accused of debating the
terms of water transportation by pools
and agreements and having throttled
all competition.
The Humphreys bill, which has the
approval of the department of justice,
provides that no ship whose owner or
owners have been adjudged guilty by
any court of a violation of the Sher
man antitrust law shall be entitled to
clear at a port of the United States.
Vessels violating the provisions of the
proposed law are subject to a fine of
$4,000 and the government may take
lien on the ship for the collection of
the fine.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-Abolish
ment of the commerce court, reduction
of salaries of government employees,
including the secretary to the presi-
dent, and the adjustment of many po-
sitions in the various departments are
recommended in the executive. legisla-
tive, executive and judicial BILL which
was reported to the house today by
the appropriations committee. The
Democratic pruning knife has been
vigorously welded. Practically every
government establishment has felt
stab in the interest of economy. The
bill approximates $33.519,193. which is
approximately s2.64O,0O0 less than the
appropriation for the same service for
the fiscal year.
