FOREIGN SHIPS
 ARE LET IN
Registry Bill Excludes Them
 From C0astWise Trade
HOUSE PLAN WINS OUT
President Authorized to Suspend Nav. isaton Laws Requiring Officers of Ships to Be American Citizens
 --Remove 5-Year Restriction

Washington.-The Senate-amended registry bill, containing the provision allowing foreign-built vessels to en- gage in coastwise trade was defeated in the Senate by vote of 40 to 20. By the same vote the House bill was adopted, thereby opening the way 10 American registry of foreign vessels for operation in the transatlantic trade.
 This bill makes 1t possible to admit foreign vessels to American registry and thus provide an outlet for Amer can grain and other products now pre- vented. through a lack of ships, from reaching the markets of Europe.
 The bill enacts into law the Admin istration plan to restore the transat. lantic trade paralyzed by the Euro pean war. It is also designed to enlarge the American merchant ma rine Already the Hamburg American line has received proposals for the purchase of certain of it's vessels now in American waters, and the North German Lloyd Line has announced that it will sell some of its ships. Ad ministratlon officials expect to see many foreign-built ships come under the American flag soon after Presi. dent Wilson signs the bill.
 Under the terms of the Houae bill the foreign built ships adp.tted to registry in the United States will nol be entitled 10 enter the coastwise trade of the United States. The House bill which is the one that will be enacted, amends the Panama Canal act which admits to registry foreign ships that have been built within five years. The bill accepted removes the five year restriction and will admit all foreign built ships 10 American registry for the oversea trade.
 The House bin also authorizes the President in his discretion when the need Of domestic commerce in his judgment require it. to suspend the navigation laws of the United States in so far as they require the officers of the foreign built ships shall be American citizens and to waive the re quirements for survey. measurement and inspection by American officers.
 The bill as it was presented by Senator O'Gorman from the confer enee committee was rejected 40 10 20. Immediately the New York Sen. ator moved to instruct the Senate conferees to recede from the Senate amendments which the Senate had just disapproved and 10 concur in the House bill
