Suggestion by Nelson

Senator Nelson asked If discrim
mating duty on goods transported In
American bottoms would not meet
the emergency, suggesting that the
provision of the Underwood Simmons
tariff law for such duties be enforc'
ed. Senator Gallinger said he would
like TO see 1t tried, although he could
see the difficulties which would arise
In connection with various CONNER
cial treaties.

nounce all these treaties" Senator
Nelson asked, and impose discrlmi'
mating duties Of 10 per cent, which
would build up for us merchant ma

DELAY IS SEEN FOR
SHIP PURCHASE BILL

Washington, Jan. EFT became
apparent today that the fight between
the Democrats and Republicans in
the senate over the government ship
purchase bill had settled down to IA
physical endurance test
While Minority Leader Gallinger
held the floor Senators Root, Lodge,
Smoot, Burton and others held an in.
formal conference and determined to
resort to every possible parliament
airy expedient to block the majority
plan to ho'd night sessions. II the
majority succeeded in overriding their
objections from day to day it is prob
able that a quirum will be insisted,
upon at every available opportunity,
thus demanding the continuous pres
ence of Democratic senator's.
Vice president Marshall vacated the
chair for time during the day to
rest for the expected ordeal tonight,
while Majority Leader Kern instruct.
ed senate clerks to get pledges Of
attendance from Democratic members
for tonights session.
Meanwhile Senator Gallinger, most
OF the time talking to less than half
a dozen senator's, continued his
speech against the bill. He read
newspaper editorials opposing the
bill for two hours, and said he had
a pile OF similar clippings on his desk
which should prove of educational
value to the advocates of the bill.
After reading statistics OF various
foreign nations as to the effect OF
their policies toward the great de-
velopments in merchant marine had
always followed the extension of
subsidies, with the requirement that
ships receiving such dement's must
be constructed In home yards. BY
this process, he said, Germany had
butt up the great shipyards, which
had been able to construct not only
such liners as the Vaterand and 9th
ers, but also to construct the ships
of the German navy, before that time
constructed in British yards.
Discussing increased freight rates
on exports, Senator Gallinger said
there were many things that contrib.
uted to the present increase includ-
ing decreased imports. How the pur-
chase and operation of thirty ships
by the government could affect the
situation, he added was not clear to
him.

BILLS TO STRENGTHEN
 THE ARMY AND NAVY
Taken Up by the Senate Military
 Committee in Open Session.

Washington. Jan. 13-War depart ment bills to strengthen the army and l create q. reserve corps were taken up today by the senate military commit 7 tee in open session. with Secretary ! Garrison and his aides present to ex- plain the various projects Members I of the committee indicated by their questions their general approval of the measures.
 Senator Dupont. however. objected to the bill providing for the addition ! of 1000 officers to the mobile army cOntendinE that t would create nearly a thousand vacancies in the grade of second lieutenant. and provided for q i disprOpOTtion of colonels and lieutenant l coiOnels
 Secretary Garrison said that the bills ] had been prepared in the war college | by his direction and that he had in ! structed that the efficiency of the pres l enF army should be the end sought. I He said that statements of the reason 1 for the apportiOnment selected would ! be dra fLed at once for the committee. 1 Discussing the bill providing for the creation of sI reserve corpus, by grant, l ing power JO the secretary 10 discharge competent men from the regular army 1 iDtp the reserve at the end of one year 1 Of service, Nlr.

His plan he believed, would bring to the army class of recruits soJ now available The secretary strongly urged the enlcCInent Of the bill providing for the officers reserve corps. Even with the other bills enacted, he said the depart ment would be faced in time of war with the problem of providing officers
 for a force of 350,0Gu men, and it now had no list of graduates of military schools or other civilians competent to take these positions.
 The secretary said that the enact ment of the coast artillery bill would bring that arm of the service LID to 50
 per cent. of the SIrength 1t would have in war. He said that he considered this the most urgent matter. because the isolated position of the United States makes its coast defense of great importance. 4 single shot from ( big

the suffraS< movement fostered by hysterical v,oInen is on the wane-"
 The vote on the resolution was as follows:
 Debate at Times Bitter
 Often during the earnest, and at times bitter debate preceding the vote. Speaker Clark was forced to inter rupr the speakers on the floor, fill the chamber with the deafening battering og his gavel and warn both members and spectators that order must be pre-
 served. Several times he threatened
 to have the galleries cleared unless
 the disturbance subsided. But the mur1nurs of approval and disapproval persisted. as each speaker voiced his
 support for or opposition to the cause of votes for women
 Representative BowdIe Kissed,
 The turmoil cIIlminated in a storm of hissing that greeted a speech made
 by Representative Bowdle of Ohio op- posing the amendment. He had treat ed the subject hunorously and re- marked that the women of Washing ton are beautiful but they have no interest in affairs of state
 Opponents of the resolution based their opposition largely on the argu- ment that for the fedora government to prescribe qualification for suffrage would be an unwarranted invasion of the right of the individual states to control their elections, and further upon the contention that there was no adequate public demand for this 1 amendment which showed it to be necessary
 Advocates of the amendment con- l tended that the widespread demand 1 for woman suffrage, it's success in the states where it has been tried and the principle Of allowing the people to rule" justified the submission of the 1 proposal to the states for ratification. Preceding the general debate there 1 was debate of an hour and a half on a special rule providing for consider ation of the resolution which was l adopted by 8 rising vote of 209 to 90.

Eight Submarines
 Contracted For
BRIDGEPORT co. GETS AWARD FOR FOUR COAST DEFENDERS.
TO COST $427,OoO EACH
Sea Going Submarine, Equal to Any in the World, to Be Built at ouin- cy, Mass, at Cost of s1 ,35o, ,o0O-Four to Be Laid Down at Seattle at $45o,- 900 Each.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Contracts were awarded by the navy department today 10 the Electric Boat company for one seagoing submarine to bo built at Quincy, Mass, at $1,350, 900, and for three coast defense submarines to be built at Seattle, Wash, at $400,000 each, and to the Lake Torpedo Boat company for four coast defense sub marines to be built at Bridgeport, Conn, $427,000 each.
 The award to the Electric Boat company of the contract for three yes setS to be constructed by the Seattle Construction and Dock company was in conformity with the law requiring at least three of the submarines to be built on the Pacific coast, provided the extra cost would not exceed that of the transportation of the vessels from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Transportation in this case would have cost s41.000 for each boat, whereas the cost of con- struction will be S20,000 additional each.
 seasoing Submarine 1000 Tons.
 The big seagoing submarine of 1.000 tons displacement will be as large as any submarine in a foreign navy. all though some are now building in Eu- rope of more than 800 tons. Certain features of American design will make this craft unique. She will have a ra- dluS of action of about 5000 miles, a surface speed of 20 knots and a sub merged speed Of Il knots; by using her storage batterS alone she will travel completely under water for more than 9 whole day. On her deck will be car ried rapid fire guns designed to be completely enclosed when the vessel dives beneath the surface 4 valuable feature will be directaDle torpedo tubes, making 1t unnecessary to man oeuvrc the ship to aim at an enemy, and adding enormously to the craft s offensive power.
 Coast Defense Submarises.
 The coast defense submarines are only one-third the size of the big sea going type although they themselves are quite seawOrthy for short voyages. These boats will have a steaming radi- us on the surface of about 1000 miles, and their lighter draft is regarded as essential for oDerations in compIrtt- lively shallow harbors.

 The ship was lost" says Lord Charles. under conditions whose repe- titIon, after the losses of the Aboukir, Greasy and Hogue, we thought impos- slble. In both cases heavy ships were sent into waters infested with sub marines, without the protection of tor pedo boat destroyers, which are the natural defense against the submarine. The efficacy of the destroyer is shown by the fact that submarines are unable to injure the British squadron off the Belgian coast. It is unpardonable that ofhcers and men should be thus grati- tuitously exposed to conditions under which they are sent to the bottom without shot being fred
