in the Senate until the vote is taken,
but the first test for the senators who
favor arbitration of the question of
American exemption of coastwise ships
from tol payment will come Wednesday,
when the foreign relations committee
will vote on arbitration resolutions. Even
the friends of arbitration do not claim
that a favorable report from this COM

plan will be adopted, but the commit
