IMMIGRATION. BILL CAUSED TUMULT
Wild Excitement In House During Debate Over Amendments For Exclusion of Asiatcs- Representative Mann Coun- sels Republicans to Place Country Above Party Ad- vantage-Amendments Overwhelmingly Defeated.

Washington, Feb S-Asiatic exclu- sion agitation was quieted temporarily at least, in the house today after a heated debate that brought both re- publican and democratic leaders to the floor with pleas for calmness and de- liberation. By overwhelming votes the house stripped from the immigration Dill under consideration all amend ments which would have placed a bar against Asatic immigration.
 The action was taken after repub- Ican leader Mann, Representative Sherley Of Kentucky and other lead : CTS had made a. vigorous fight to over come the sentiment which last night expressed itself by a vote of III to go in favor of the perfection of an amend ment to exclude Mongolians, Malays and negroes. The speakers insisted there should be no hasty action that might embarrass the state department in it's relations with the Japanese government.
 Mann Quiets the Storm.
 The house was surcharged with ex- citement. The anti-Japanese forces rushed action. Representative Raker of California presenting a substitute for a pending drastic exclusion amend ment presented by Representative Hayes. The debate quickly became heated and involved.
 The house was in confusion with half dozen members Vociferously de- manding an opportunity to be heard when the tide was turned by Repub- lfcan Leader Mann, who strode to he center Of the chamber and quietins

 T have been long enough in this house, I hope. to place the country above party I do not believe any of these amendments should be adopt ed at this time. Dealing with our for elgn affairs is a matter of deIicacy at best. While l do not have the greatest pride in the present state de- partment I feel that in conducting our relations with foreign countries am bound to rely, in the first instance at least. upon the state department. If they cannot eradicate the difficulties of the situation through diplomatic negotiations, it is time enough then for congress to act by specific legis- lation.
 T am not prepared to invite war with Japan or any other country, though if that war should come as d result of any legislation. I would not shrink from it.'
 Place Country Above Party.
 As the house listened in silence, Representative Mann turned to the re- publican side.

Problems of Street Traffic.

New York engineer, MT W. J.
 Benedict. who has been spending a
 year in Europe to study the problems street traffic, has brought back with him a number of suggestions for the Iessening of accidents. He recom- mends, for instance, that the use of glass fronts on motor cars should be prohibited at night and on rainy days. At night they obscure the view ahead by ref1ecting the lights behind. They are also dangerous when coated with dust, rain, or snow. Motor lights should be standardized Cars, says Mir Benedict, are so carlessly and deceptively lighted as to indicate the
Norwich bulletin., 1914-02-04

approach of not only motor cars but wagons, glowworms and drug stores.
 The right hand drive, which is cor rect in England, where traffic passes to the left, is wrong in America, where the traffic rule is reversed. Innumer- able accidents have been caused in America because the driver of a right hand drive car must speed up and get completely clear of the vehicle ahead of him before he can see what is on the road beyond. In MT Benedicts opinion, it is time to consider whether automobile liability insurance is not against public policy. At present the economic incentive to careful driving is existent, because each car owner has in his safe a neat little in surance policy which guarantees to pay all damages imposed by law for accidents caused by his machine Manchester Guardian.

There were only two bidders-the
Electric Boat Company and the Lake
Submarine TorpedoboGt Company. For
the big seagoing submarine the cleo
trio company's bid was the lowest. at
s1.35O,0O0. for vessel of 925 tons,
while the Lake company's bid for
smaller harbor defence boats was the
lowest, being S376.000 for vessel Of
2s9 tons.
The bids presented many variations.
and TO meet the requirements OF Con-
gress. that three of the eight vessels
should be built on the Pacific Coast,
each bidder added from 100000 10
900 TO the stated price on that ac-
count. That made the Lake company's
