SENATE DEBATE:
ON PLAN REPEAL
PANAMA TOLLS
Senators Lodge and Owen
Defended the Presidents 5
Position, While Senator
Chamberlain Declined to
Agree With It-Bristow' 5
Denials.
81 AssoCfATEp PRESS.

Washington, Feb. 1S-Prasident VIII
sons plan to repeal the Panama tolls
exemption came in for its first senate
debate today during which it was
characterized by Senator Bristow, re
publican, as an aid to. trans -continen-
tai railroads.
Senator Lodge, republican. and SEN
ator Owen defended the presi dents po-
sition while Senator Chamberlain,
democrat. declined to agree with it. Mr.
Bristow denied having impugned the
presidents motives.
When Senator Owen took the floor
to defend President Wilson, the de
bate turned from suffrage to Panama
canal tolls. He declared there was
likely to creep into a party platform
some plank not fully digested and
therefore not to be regarded as cor
elusive Upon the party.
THAT question had not been de-
cided upon by the national democracy"
said he. Il say that the conscience of
no democrat is bound by the platform
because 1t does not represent the sober
Judgment OF the party, but merely rep
resents what some persons believed
had been determined upon.
II am oppressed to no tolls. They
would be unjust to the tax payers of
the United States I do not believe one
dollar of the exemption to coastwise
vessels would ever find its way to the
ultimate consumer"
Declaring that President Wilson did
not like to see, the United States in
the attitude of an outlaw among the
nations Senator Lodge, republican,
defended the president.
SENATOR 5RIsToW'S STAND.
The woman suffrage constitutional
amendment came in for discussion, but
no action tcd day in the senate.
SENATOR Bristow charged President
Wilson with being inconsistent when
he declined to favor suffrage because
it was not treated in the democratic
platform while he was asking congress
to repeal the Panama tolls exemption
which the platform favored.
1.-THE greed of the railroads and the
claims Of Great Britain seem
FAR more important with our chief
executive than appeals of women he
5aid.
Senator Sutherland declared the |
most convincing argument for woman |
suffrage was the lack of any persua- |
i've argument against it,.

i've Underwood, the democratic house |
eader, today that members could be |

The Panama canal tolls repeal was

ship Madonna, were in collision today
in the bay Of Naples, according to
