Great Britain. he said. has never main
tanned that under the treaty We have not
a perfect right to relieve our coastwise
business from the payment OF tolls.
Extent of British Claim.
The fatthest she has gone is to main
tain that the ships doing a coastwise
trade may not at the same time carry
foreign freight. If this should be done
it would be in violation Of the equality
of the nations provided for in the treaty,
and also would be in violation of the
present statute
Senator Works insisted that in fixing
the rates to be charged for tonnage
passing through the canal former Pres-
dent Taft had taken into account the
tonnage of our coastwise vessels, and
had fixed the rates just as if tolls from
our coastwise vessels were to be includ-
ed. Therefore. Great Britain had no
right to complain that foreign ships were
to be charged more for the maintenance
of the canal because our coastwise YES
sells had to pay no tolls. He insisted
that Great Britain must recognize our
right to subsidize our own vessels If we
SO desired. for practically all European
nations subsidize their merchant marine.

TOLLS NO SENATORIAL ISSUE.
Alabama Contest Merely Choice Be
tween Underwood and Hobsou.

c. E. Stewart, Washington CORE
spondent of two influential daily papers
in Alabama, was at the White House
today. and in commenting on the Ala
bama senatorship election stated that
the tolls question did not enter into
the fight, in his opinion. both Under
wood and Hobson being against re-
peal Of free tolls. This is his view OF
the matter:
Il do not believe that the question OF
tolls repeal cut any figure in the cleo
tion for United States senator in Ala
bama yesterday. Mr.. Underwood and
Capt Hobson both voted for free tolls
in May, 1912, and there was little ef-
fort on the part of the followers Of
either of the candidates to inject this
issue into the campaign.
Hobson, at Mobile, in a speech did
mention the fact that Underwood had
voted against the administration, but
he did so only to offset the claim made
House leader was the 'right-hand man
of the administration
In the contest for the short term be.
tween Frank S. White, Ray Rushtor
and Watt T. Brown. and the success.
full candidate will undoubtedly vote or
the question of repeal in the Senate, nc
mention of the issue, so far as know
was made. I am reasonably certain
that none of these gentleman was
called upoE by the people OF Alabama
to declare himself either for or against
repeal.
Il am convinced that the people OF
Alabama are against repeal, but that
day in any sense 1 do not believe. The
only question in yesterdays election
was the question of choice as between
Underwood and Hobson."

CR|T|C|SE RESERVE
BANK SELECTIONS
Champions of Baltimore and
New Orleans Voice Pro-
tests in House.

Sparks few in the House Of Represent
atives this afternoon when Representa-
tive Linthicum of Maryland and Repre-
sentative Garland Dupre and Representa-
tive Mann of Illinois expressed their feel
ings regarding the central reserve cities
recently announced by the Treasury De-
partment.
Representative Mann declared that 1t
was easy to see "a personal touch in
the makeup of the reserve list, and he
said that no city had a chance against
Richmond. Va. when it Is considered that
John Shelton Williams. controller of the
currency. and Representative Glass.
chairman of the currency committee OF
the House, are both Virginians.
The discussion started early in the
afternoon. when Mr.. Dupre endeavored
to read a set of bitter and sarcastic reso-
iutions adopted at a New Orleans mass
meeting of business men because At
lanta. Ga, was selected for that section
of the country instead of New Orleans.
Representative Gordon OF Ohio blocked
the reading for the time being, but later
Mr.. Dupre got time and read the reso-
lutions. After he had read them he said:
And 1 have read these to you at
the direction Of the mayor and busi-
ness men of New Orleans. and did not
ask to have them inserted in the Rec
ord. but stood up here and made you
listen to them in an effort to drive
into your heads some idea of the way
New Orleans feels at being treated So"
Representative Hardwick of Georgia de-
Tended Atlanta as a federal reserve city,
but Representative Dupre refused to ac-
knowledge Atlanta as the trade center of
the south.
Board Not Non-Partisan.
Representative Mann said that the
trouble lay in the fact that the federal
reserve board is not non-partisan.
"A large proportion Of this country -
he says, believes that politics did have
something to do with the selection of
the cities. I do not believe that the
Secretary of the Treasury and the Sec
retary of Agriculture were conscien-
tiously influenced politically; but I do
believe they heard privately many
more democratic arguments than they
Personal touch had something to do
with the selection. Any one can see that
the lines of trade have not been fol-
lowed.
1T will be believed all over the coun-
try that politics is having too much in
fiuence in a matter in which it should
have none
II don't want any one to think that Bal
timore is satisfied" said Representative
Linthicum. Baltimore does tremendous
business with the west because of cheap
er rates. and does a big business with the
entire south. Its business compares splen-
didly to that of New York on southern
shipments, yet standing in that strategic
situation, We are tied up with the city of
Richmond.

SENATE is FOR REPEAL
Count Is 35 to 81 Against Demand

NOT STRICTLY A LINEUP
Some Senators Vote on Resolution
Contrary to Their Known Atti-
tude Toward the Question
of Repeal.

BY vote Of IS to p the Senate
today referred to the foreign rela-
tions committee the Poindexter
resolution calling upon the Presi-
dent to inform the Senate as to
his real reasons for demanding
that the Panama canal tolls re-
peal bill be passed. While the
vote cannot be regarded as con-
clusively forehadowing final vote
in the Senate on the canal tolls
controversy, nevertheless it is
declared to show that the Presi-
dent at present has a majority of
that body with him in favor of
the repeal.
Several senators who arc
known to oppose the repeal vot-
ed in favor OF the reference, in
cluding Senator Perkins OF Cali
fornia. But, on the other hand,
some of the senator's favoring the
repeal, among them Senator
Hitchcock OF Nebraska voted
against the reference The motion
TO refer the resolution to the for
eisn relations committee was
made by Senator Brandegee OF
Connecticut.
Request for Information.
The resolution specifically requested the
interest to furnish the Senate with infor-
nation as to what "other matters Of even
greater delicacy and nearer consequence"
we're referred to in his message and what
connection those matters had with the
tolls exemption repeal Senator Poindex
ter had offered the resolution as modi-
fication of his original resolution pro.
hibittng any action in the Senate until
this information was forthcoming.
IF the President desires to control the
Senate. he should be given a seat in the
Senate" Senator Poindexter told the Sen
ate today. speaking to his resolution.
The President has told US that we
should repeal the tolls exemption be-
cause he wants US to do So" continued
senator Poindexter. "If the President
IS to control legislation as well as the
administration of the country, some
fundamental changes should be made
in the form of government"
Entitled to Information.
Senator Poindexter insisted that the
Senate was entitled to have the informa
ton asked in his resolution.
Senator Brandegee of Connecticut, on.
of the republicans favoring the repea
bill, admitted that he. too. would like Il
have the Presidents reasons for usins
the language he did in his address to Con
gress on the tolls question. lie asked tha
the resolution be referred to the foreign
relations committee.
He was supported by Senator Lippitt
of Rhode Island. who pointed out tina,
the President had asked Congress Il
act on this tolls matter irrespective OF
the rights IN the controversy.
II want to know what reasons tht
President has for such an extraordi
nary request" said Senator Lippitt
would the senator be willing Il
yield any of the rights of the American
people because of any situation re
garding foreign affairs?" asked Sena
tor Borah
