Gen. Villa as the Provisional President
Of Mexico would prove acceptable to
their chief and that peace would be ef-

PRESIDENT firm
FOR ship BILL
Makes 1t Plain He Expects
Passage Before Congress
Adjourns.
CONFERS WITH LEADERS
Declares Emergency for Which the
Measure Was First Conceived
Has Not Passed.

President Wilson yesterday made II
plain that he expects Congress to pass
the government ship purchase bill be-
fore adjournment. Hopes for an early
getaway sank. Prospects for stin
party row in the House and Senate over
the measure frightened.
There is gloom at the Capitol. With
the conference report on the Clayton bill
yet to be disposed Of, and every indlca-
ton of a lengthy debate on the war reve-
nue. measure, which the Finance Commit
tee has not yet reported out, the Senate
already had its hands full to get sway
around October Is.
The lineup against the Alexander ship
purchase bill in the House premises TO be
almost as stih as that against the canal
tolls measure. Two of the Presidents
strongest supporters in the canal tolls
fight-Representatives Adamson. Of
Georgia, and Sherley. OF Kentucky-are
against the measure. Majority Leader
Underwood, on the other hand supports
the bill. Speaker Clark, who added eX
citement to the tolls fight by exploding
what might have been a bomb against
the administration at the eleventh hour.
is yet to be heard from. Representative
titchin, heir apparent to Mr.. Under
woods leadership in the House, again
is aligned against the White House.
President Firm for Passage.
President Wilson yesterday conferred
with leaders of both sides. He informed
them frankly that he believes the emer-
gency. TO meet which the measure first
was conceived, has not passed. and cannot
pass in the immediate future. Chairman
Alexander, of the Merchant Marine and
Fisheries Committee, author OF the bill,
and Majority Leader Underwood. first
talked to the President, after which Rep
resentatives Sherley, OF Kentucky, and
Page, Of North Carolina, leaders OF the
opposition, called. There was no indi-
cation yesterday that the President had
changed the views Of either Sherley or
Page.
Indications are that much OF the heat
which marked the canal tolls struggle
will be avoided in the coming contest. As
in the former contest much of the Demo-
cratic opposition will be drawn from
Southern States and constituencies with
large shipping interests, 1t is thought.
G.. o. p. Leaders Against Measure.
All the Republican leaders in the House
are said to be against the measure, which
Is expected to meet a strong Republican
opposition with the exception of middle
western and intermountain Represent
atives, many of whom supported the tolls
exemption repeal measure. The Progress
sives have not indicated how they will
line up. and a party conference is ex-
pected to determine the question.
President Wilson has made II clear to
callers that he hopes to build up a large
and permanent Latin-American trade
largely through the movement which he
believes the enactment Of the proposed
legislation will start

Efforts of Secretaries Garrison and

Compromise.

Despite the efforts of Secretary Of War

letic Associations of the Military Acad-

choice of the city in which the annual

Army-Navy football game is to be played.
West Point is insisting upon the game

insists that the contest be held in Phila-

years past, with the exception OF last
year, when by special agreement. 1t was
played in New York.
The two Cabinet officers proposed that
an agreement be made for a period of ten
years, each academy to alternate in the
selection Of a field for the game. not TO be
further north than New York or further
south than Washington. This proposal
has not yet been accepted by the two
academies, but II is believed that at least
an agreement will be reached for a game
