Bill Is Designed to Bring About
Rehabilitation of U. S. Mer-
chant Marine.
DEMOCRATS UNITED;
APATHY TOWARD ISSUE
Few Opposition Speeches From Re.
publicans Expected-Senators
Look Toward Adjournment.

The second attempt of the ad-
ministration to create a govern
ment shipping board to undertake
rehabilitation of the American
merchant marine began in the
Senate today under conditions in
marked contrast to those which
characterized the hotly fought
losing struggle in the last Con-
gress.
When Senator Simmons called up the
measure there was no quorum present
and the sergeant-at-arms had to seek
absentees. Before quorum developed
Senator Penrose moved that the Senate
adjourn, and it was more than half an
hour before sufficient votes could be
mustered to defeat the motion.
Democrats United.
With democrats united on the amend
ed bill and no party revolt in prospect,
such as accomplished defeat of the bill
before. interest in the issue was
apathetic. Senator Simmons notified his
colleagues that he had little to say
that had not been said before and that
he would not regard it as a discourtesy
II senators left the chamber to attend
other business.
Informal conferences of republicans
and democrats early in the day regard
ing the prospect of adjournment of
Congress disclosed that republicans
were anxious to dispose of the shipping
a M L.
as rapily as possible.
Possible Time of Adjournment.
Senator Harding of Ohio. who will
direct opposition to the shipping bill
for the minority, said he thought the
measure could be disposed of in less
than week. Senator Kern informed
him that sincere effort would be
made to dispose of all pending business
so that Congress might adjourn by
September l.
Senator Harding explained that the
might be reached as early as Saturday,
August 20. The republicans, he said.
had no set program of procedure in
connection with the shipping bill, and,
in his opinion, there would be few long
opposition speeches
closed. have been urged by campaign
leaders to. hasten adjournment. and de-
mands are pouring in to senators to
get into the national political fight
as soon as possible.
Cites Need Of Preparedness.
In urging the shipping bill Senator
:immons outlined the great need of
the country for commercial prepared
ness hand-in- hand with military pre-
paredness. He pointed to the Senate
amendments to the House bill, which
led to a union of democratic forces,
emphasizing the provisions will pre-
vent the purchase of ships from war

.rnment operation of merchant vessels

Then he started from the store. She
was knocked down and dealt a couple

ly arrested him near his home. 1t is
stated that Boyd was under the in
f1uence of liquor. He probably will be
