to have referred to the committee on
commerce, Senator Williams addressed
the Senate, declaring that 1t was neces-
sary. to meet the immediate needs of this
country. for the United States to get ships
to export wheat. corn. meat and other
foodstuffs already contracted for and
being held back because Of the war situa-
ton.
Within a short time. the senator said
he believed, the British merchant vessels
would be moving, because he thought the
fear Of the German navy would disap-
pear.
Unless the British navy is utterly de-
ficient," said the senator, lit won't be
long before the world will know that the
German navy is either bottled up in the
Baltic or destroyed, and British ships
will sail the seas"

AL Coasts Regarded.

The Williams bill would man the yes
sells to be acquired by the government
with officers or crews of the navy or
American merchant marine. The bill
also directs that in the purchase Of ships
due regard be given to the needs of
Pacific, Atlantic and gulf coasts
The bill also provided for the resale
Of the ships either during or within four
months after peace is declared.
Senator Williams expressed the belief
that Germany would not seek to exercise
it's right, under The Hague agreement,
to declare American foodstuffs contra
band, and that the ties of friendship be-
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain would prevent the latter country
from doing SO.
Senator Smoot suggested that it would
be better for the State Department to
express to the belligerent nations the de-
termination to regard foodstuffs as not
contraband and Senator Williams par

them with four inches Of dry sand.
In about a week l hauled out O
wagon load OF rotten potatoes. and
