Following a conference yesterday with
President Wilson, Representative Under
the Capitol and prepared a bill ''to pro-
vide for the admission OF foreign-built
ships to American registry as means of
obtaining bottoms to carry American ex-
ports to European markets.
The bill valves all restrictions upon tho
admission of foreign-built ships to Amer

which requires vessels OF American regis
try to be owned by American citizens or
corporations.

through the two war" bills yesterday.

ment OF the House, forced by Repub-
licans, while Leader Underwood was in
conference with President Wilson
After the House adjourned an effort
was made to assemble the Committee on
Banking and currency to act on the
emergency currency bill passed by the
Senate Friday. 1t developed that q
quorum was not in town. and the COM
mittee was forced to defer action. At
the same time an effort was made to as
semble a quorum Of the Committee on
Merchant Marine to give consideration to
the proposition Of ships involved in the
bill prepared by Mr.. Underwood. This
effort also failed Of results. According
ly. it was decided TO defer action on both
bills until tomorrow. The Democratic
leaders do not apprehend opposition to
the passage of either bill
1t is the opinion OF Republican as well
as Democratic leaders that the present
situation will result in-an insistent de-
mand that the United States shall pas
laws providing for a merchant marine of
its own instead of depending on foreign
vessels for the transportation of its over
sea trade.

to a full winter feed of 40 pounds
