THE report that there are divided coun-

believe that report to be false, but Sc
long as IT. is anywhere credited 1t cannot
fail to- do the greatest harm and expose

therefore, feel justified in asking that
your committee will permit me TO urge
an early vote upon the resolutions with
regard to travel on armed merchantmen
which have recently been so much talked
about in order that there may be af-
&orded an immediate opportunity for full
IFpublic discussion and action upon then
and that all doubts and conjectures may
be swept away and our foreign relationi
once more cleared of damaging misunder
