ENGLAND'S RESENTMENT
British Public stirred by President

LONDON, Jan. l2--In spite OF the best
efforts OF the Foreign Osice the American
note. or rather the news agency synopsis
of II. the dl screpancles OF which already
have been pointed out by cable. has stirred
up strong feeling OF irritation in the
British public toward the United States
Officially no such resentment exists. The
Foreign Office insists stutSornly and pow
erfully, that not word Of hostility and
not a word OF resentment shall be spoken
and at a time such az the present the
British press, almost without exception
and the exceptions are not important

ment.
But this attitude OF the Government
does not alter the fact that not only by
the man in the street. but from top to
bottom OF English society President Will
sons note. chiefly because OF the terms
in which the news agency synopsis was
couched. is regarded as an attack on
ENGLAND and the Allies.
IN this connection the public digs up
President Clevelsnds Venezuelan note
and even the Kaiser's telegram TO Presi-
dent Kruger at the outbreak OF the Boer
war for purposes OF comparison.
The British Government and the press
insist upon "friendllness" toward the

Daniels Says Also That Purchase

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 23--Secretary ~
the Navy Daniels began tonight the Ad.
ministraion's appeal to the country to
support the ship purchase bill. In
speech before Federal Lodge No. 6S7. In
ternational Association OF Machinists, he
pointed out the advantages which the
passage Of the bill would bring TO labor
THE ship bill pending In Congress-
the Secretary said. would increase the
merchant marine greatly and call for
hundreds OF skilled machinis.s and artl-
sans. giving employment not only to them
but to thousands of trained seamcn. II
the hlibuster succeeds Il will be a blow
not only to American commerce, but viii
deprive labor OF an opportunity for the
construction Of ships and for service
anoat."
From the ScCretarys statement IN this
connection II was concluded here that Il
Is Intended the Government Shall stay in
the steamship business long enough to
build merchant vessels as well as 20 buy
vessels now under foreign flags The
Sccretarys reference to the opposition IN
the Senate as "hlibuster" was likewise
taken to indicate the method which the
Presidents Cabinet win use In assailing
the bills opponents.
Mr.. Daniels reviewed the record O,
the Wilson Administration with regard to
labor and showed that In the SiXty-secoud
Congress. under the leadership of the then
Representative Wilson, now Secretary OF
Labor more labor legislation was en-
acted than ever before Since March 4
1918, he said wages of the employees Of
navy yards had been increased an aver

WAsHINGrON, Jan. 2S.--Dcmocratic
Senators in party conference to-day. the
fifth held on the ship purchase bill. agreed
to the form of the measure, and with only
three dissenting votes OF those present
made the ship purchase bill "a party
measure" The effect of this vote is to
bind" all Democratic Senators to the
support of the bill, at the risk OF having
their party loyalty questioned
The three who voted against the resolu-
ton were not uncovered after the caucus,
but It Is believed they were Senators
Bankhead. Hoke Smith and Lane. About
a dozen Democratic Senators expressed
dissatisfaction with the Presidents bill.
but some OF the objections were overcome
by amendments made In the caucus. No
amendment was made to-day except to
change verbiagc
The important amendments were those
made yesterday, relating to capitalization,
which shall not exceed s2O,OOO,OOO. The
original bill sent to the Senate by the
President provided an initial capital stock
Of $4,000, 900. with power in Congress to
raise 1t at will, with no limit as to the
amount. This seemed dangerous to some
Democratic Senators.
Another amendment defined the plan OF
the ship corporation which will be Or
sanized under the laws Of the District of
Columbia. This Is to meet the objections
against Incorporation.
Agree on Personnel of Board.
An amendment OF Importance II that
which relates to the personnel OF the
shipping board and as finally agreed to
by the caucus the board will consist OF
the Secretary OF the Treasury the Secre-
tary OF Commerce and three commits
sioners to be appointed by the President
from private life and TO draw salaries OF
$4,000 year each, These men must be
experienced In oversee trade.
Senator IAke Smiths amendment to
take the Government out OF the business
OF operating ships failed to-day after q
long and earnest discussion. The Senator
planned TO have the Government lease
the vessels IL may acquire so as to in
sure return OF per cent. on the invest
ment and not TO operate any unless IT
be found that they cannot he leased or
that II is necessary to operate them in
the interests of American commerce
The fight In the Senate over the bill
will begin Monday in real earnest. Re
publicans showed no signs to-day OF
quitting" or conceding the possibility OF
passing the bill before March 4, when
Congress comes to an end under the law.
Senator Gallinger said that the bill could
not pass the Senate before that time.
Democratic leaders believe they can
pass II in ten days by wearing out the
opposition. Night sessions Will probably
begin early next week. 1t is understood
that Senator Kern, majority leader, VIII
ask unanimous consent TO Ak date for
the vote before March 4. and failing he
will ask the Senate to sit at night. Later
II progress IS not satisfactory to the
friends OF the bill continuous sessions
may be imposed.
