In the United States this power is vested

tional Law, says: "A state has the right
to expel from its territory aliens. indi-

times collective expulsion was praeaced.
In modern times it has been resorted to
only in case of war. Some writer's have

Tentative Bill Drawn.

After conferences Of democratic and re-
publican senators, who in turn have con-
ferred with members OF the House inter-
state commerce and judiciary committees.
q tentative amendment to the Senate
bill to create an interstate trade COM
mission has been drawn. designed to
take the place Of proposed bills to pro-
hihit or regulate interlocking directo-
rates, holding companies, stock watering;
the issuance of railroad securities and
to solve the problem of destructive price
discrimination. 1t would provide that
all these problems be referred to the pro-
ing an exhaustive study of the subject
for the Information of Congress.
President Wilson. 1t became known last
night, has had this solution of the prob
by administration leaders he has looked
upon it with favor. The President could
not be reached last night at White Sui
phur Springs, W. Va. where he is rest
ing with his family over Easter. White
House officials declined to make any
comment on the reports.
Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Arkan-
sas, a member Of the subcommittee OF
the interstate commerce committee, es-
pecially assigned to work out the trust
legislative program, made a frank state
ment of his view of the matter.
Senator Robinson's Statement.
He said:
There are some radical differences be-
tween the trade commission bill soon TO
be reported by the House committee on
interstate and foreign commerce and that
which the Senate committee mas ten
tatively agreed upon. We of the senate
committee who have had some part in
the preparation of this bill believe that
a trade commission should be vested
with broad powers, and as result OF
this belief it may be expected that a
bill soon will be reported which Will
make the commission in many respects
an independent body with liberal powers
I'm my opinion, 1t is within the range
Of possibility that this proposed traoe
thority to investigate the relation to
commerce of interlocking directorates,
holding companies, stock watering and
such matters as price dlscrlmana.lom a9it,na ~.
and that measures affecting these sub
jects will be postponed until the pro-
posed commission can investigate them
and report it's findings and recommended
tions to Congress.
May Be Delayed.
However. 80 far as I am informed.
No policy Of this character is now
definitely in contemplation. It is true
that the large number Of other matters
requiring attention. including the
Panama canal tolls question, may tend
to delay until the next session Of Con-
gress the completion Of the so-called
trust program. Many of the members
in both houses are ANXIOUS for a COM
paratively early adjournment.
Personally. I prefer that this whole
subject be concluded during the present
session. Still. 1 do not know that any
harm can come to the public if some
features of the proposed trust legisla-
ton are not determined until the next
session

Views Of the Leaders Conflict.

The task tentatively outlined in bills
proposed assumed proportions that pre-
cluded its accomplishment. leaders be-
lieved. in view Of other legislative prob
lens confronting Congress, and also be-
cause OF the many conflicting opinions Of
men In the councils Of the dominant party
as to Just what should be done.
It was pointed out that President Will
son, in his trust message, sought merely
to suggest to Congress evils Of big busi-
ness which needed regulation. Since then
he has had many conferences with MEM
bers Of the House and Senate committees
which have from time to time submitted
tentative trust regulation bills.
Some time ago a subcommittee Of the
Senate interstate commerce committee
was appointed by direction of Senator
Newlands, the chairman, to incorporate
into one measure all the features Of the
various bills contemplated. Since that
committee has been at work many
stumbling blocks have been encountered
as to how far Congress should go in
enacting legislation supplementary to the
Sherman act: just what would strengthen
the provisions of that act and just what
might weaken It,

AT THE PRESENT SESSION
Conflicting Opinions Among the Ma.
jority Leaders Regarding the Re-
quired Form of Legislation.

Antitrust legislation supplementary to
the Sherman act probably will not be
undertaken at this session of Congress
on the broad scale originally outlined by
the administration. This became known
last night. democratic Senate and House
leaders agreeing that a practical solution
OF the vexatious problem Of coping with
evils of big business through legislation
had not ben suggested.
The plan. 1t was asserted, is to pass
one bill which would create an Interstate
trade commission with broad powers to
investigate affairs of corporations and
with specific authorization to inquire into
the relation to commerce of interlocking
directorates. holding companies, price
determinations and other phases of the
question. The commission would recon-
mend to the next Congress what further
trust reguiative legislation it deemed ad-
vtsable for the welfare Of the country.
Such a elimination of an antitrust
legislative program originally suggested
by President Wilson in special message
to Congress has been working out In con-
ferences between the President and SEN
ate and House leaders for many weeks.

MISSIONARY LECTURE

Talks on and Shows Views of China

The Rev. c. c. Rollit, of Minneap-
oils, secretary of the sixth mission
airy department of the Episcopal
church, gave an illustrated lecture on
China in the Guild hall Tuesday ev.
enine, Jan. 20.
Most of the pictures were beauti-
fully colored and the lecture was
very interesting and instructive, set
ting forth the past and present con-
ditions in China and showing in part
the work along hospital and educa-
tional lines that is being done to
reach the people of this great coun-
try by the Episcopal church.
Mr.. Rollit described China as being
lin the melting pot stage, with the
psychological moment now at hand
in which Christian people and Chris
tian nations are to determine wheth-
er she shall harden into a Christian
or pagan nation. The people of the
United States enjoy great opportuni-
ties and privileges, but with these
come as great responsibilities. The
Christian churches have gone into
China and have ministered to her
along lines of which she felt great
need. BY applied Christianity a
foothold has been gained"
The pictures showed st. Luke's
hospital, Shanghai, Boon college,
Wuchang, and st. Johns university

The Rector, Mr.. Horton, gave a
short address that was an appeal for
the cause of missions.
