"No Reason for Rush"

Surely there is nothing sacred
about this repeal bill and there is no
reason for this mad rush." said the
Speakers statement. Il will not be a
party to ramming such rule down
the threats of members.
Impressed with the Importance of
a measure which President Wilson
has characterized as necessary to the
conduct of his administrations for
eign policy, an extraordinary attend
ance of members was on the floor
when the rule was presented. Specta-
tors filled the galleries, occupied the
stairways and overfiowed into the cor
ridors.
At o'clock Rep. Henry, chairman
of the rules committee, presented the
rule limiting debate on the Sims bill
to 20 hours and precluding amendment
except for single motion to recon-
NIT. Brief argument brought about an
agreement Of three debate hours on
the rule.
Henry's Explanation
Representative Henry to a House
sitting attentively, explained the rule
and launched into a defence of the re-
peal bill. Then followed an argument
in which the rule received little atten-
ton as compared with the merits of
the measure, anG the Presidents for
eign policy, the right of the American
government to exercise control of the
canal it has built and the economic
ACCESSIBILITY of free tolls for American
ships were dragged back and forth
in the discussion.
The foreign policy was the particu-
lar subject of criticism. Administration
adherents declared that under the
treaty the United States had no NOR
al right to pass its ships free. His
opponents. Republicans and Progress
sives, attacked the foreign policy of
the administration and denounced the
proposed repeal as an "abject surren-
der to Great Britain.
Underwood Attentive
Throughout the discussion Majority
Leader Underwood, for the first time
opposing the administration, sat listen
ing attentively to the argument. Re-
publican Leader Mann and Progressive
Leader Murdoch both made argu-
ments against the rule and the bill
The administration leaders tonight
vigorously sought to keep their sup
porters in line and to secure recruits.
