FEDERAL OWNERSHIP
OUT OF PURCHASE BILL

Washington, May -Republi-
cans in the house caught the demo-
Gratis mapping today and knocked out
the government-ownership provision
in the ship purchase bill.
The vote on the proposition was
102 to 81. Democrats plan to nullify
the action before the bill goes to the
floor.
The section which was killed pro-
vides that the shipping board shall
have power to build. lease and equip
vessels for the marine trade, using
army transports and auxiliaries in
case they are needed.
Rowe OF New York offered the
amendment. The republicans had
been secretly notified to be ready.
Only 20 democrats were present be-
fore the call for relnforcements and
the vote was forced. If the amend
ment stands, the bill will merely pro-
vide for a shipping board with pow
ers to regulate commerce.

as soon as the belligerents feel there
is the slightest chance Of starting an
exchange Of peace ideas. His offer Is
expected to come at speech to be
delivered at meeting of the League
to Enforce Peace
The president will not offer to
mediate. neither will he make any
attempt to force a negotiation which
might be. considered inopportune to
either group OF belligerents. The
feeling in offcial and diplomatic cir
cles Is that peace Is further away to-
day than II has been for some time.
A feeling has spread through the
worlds capitals that Germany Is
most anxious for peace. The allies
countries regard this anxiety as based
on necessity. 2
This is likely to make the allies go
to the limit in the hope OF crush
ing Germany, making their torms so
harsh that they cannot be accepted.
The president Is said to believe
there Is no hope for peace until after
the allies launch their expected major
offensive. A

not appear altogether conclliatory.
There was no decision as to wheth-
or the reply to these statements
would be made public by the govern
ment. but possibly this will be done.
One oticiai told me that making
peace at this stage would be more
diiicult than adjusting the recent

The Dutchmen believe that the
French. English and German people
oil desire peace. The impression In
Holland is that the time for a de-
cisive victory for either side has pass
cd. although q summer offensive by
each side 10 expected.
The Dutch think that II is Amer
ica's duty TO act now. The time Is
ripe FOR bringing the beliigerents to-
scthcr, Troy believe. One diploma,
said that II peace talk continues for
few months each side will learn
enough OF what the other wants to
bring peace next October.
In Holland the impression is tha,
Premier Asquith and Imperial
Chancellor Won Bethmann-H -Hollwee
might make peace, but that President
Poincare and the Earl Kitchener
Lord Northcliffe group Ia most anxi'
Gus to continue the war.
II Is said the war group in England
expects the United States to become
involved with Germany over the sub
marine issue. Az long as there is a
chance OF the United States becoming
involved, this group thinks that Eng
land should continue the war.
The Dutch are most friendly to the
United States, desiring America ia
lead the way to peace. I was SUR
Iprised when the Dutch asked me
when the German revolt over food
would start
Although food Is short and the
shortage may increase, the new gov
ernment regulations prevent food
demonstrations and provide llveable
rations for every one. Nothing like
the Irish rebellion Is possible here.

England Sends Valuable
 Pictures to South Africa

London, August 5.-(Correspondence or the Associated Press.)-Word mas been received here of the safe arrival at Cape town of three vessels laden with $l0O,- GOO worth of pictures secretly sent out from London and that are to constitute a national art gallery for South Africa. The pictures represent collection pur- chased in 1913 by Max Michaelis, the Rand magistrate, who was seeking a means of recording his afrection for the country of his earlier years with the gift. The gift has been delayed in Eng land, first in order that a gallery might be prepared to receive them, and then by the outbreak of the war Ine paint ings have now been transported to Cape Town by a generous shipowner at his own expense.
 It was after the late Sir Hugh Lane, a victim of the Lusitana, took out to Johannesburg collection of modern paintings that the leading men Of the Dutch population expressed enthusiasm and a desire for examples of the art of their own great ancestors in a gallery of their own. Following this Sir Hugh made the collection that has just been received in South Africa and MT. Michaelis purchased it promptly
 With Rembrandt. Frans Hals and the great Little Masters" Dutch art was at I ton of Capetown and when the prestige of the Dutch East India company was at it's height. The collection contains one of the finest works by Frans Hals in existence in the portrait of an "Old Wom- ana" from the Kann collection. The low es3 estimate of its value is about s100,0O0.
 There are 6S pictures in all, each a Dutch work of the seventeenth century. Notable Is Gabriel Metsus '"The Desert from the Narrowly collection, and Jan Steen's "The Dancing Dog" tavern scene from the Coote collection. There are two large important works by the landscape painter Ruisdael, and also 8 landscape by Hobbema and one by De Koningh. The sea pieces by Van Soyen are included, miraculous still-life works by Van Beyeren. and full-length DOT trait by Van Dyck. There are works by Ter Borch Wouverman. Du Jardin, Ten niers, etc.
