DEMAND

Washington, October 18-It was an
nounced officially that the complete
information now at hand contained no
evidence that American destroyers had
been requested to move so that the
U-boat could destroy ship without
accident The attention given that
report in the debate yesterday in par
lament caused surprise here. as Of

out that the destroyers were on hard
purely for humanitarian purposes and
that so long as international law was
being observed II was but an act Of

to give notice that he inteded to sink
the vessel.

CORRUPT PRACTICE
BILL UP To SENATE

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. g.
The senate by a vote of thirty-two tG
fourteen today decided to take up the
Owens corrupt practices bill. The
measure places certain restrictions up
on campaign expenditures and imposes
q heavy penalty for violation of it's
provisions, and is expected to be pass
ed before congress adjourns.
Seven republican senators voted
with the democrats to take up the bill,
while seven democrats voted against
the resolution. The split vote, how
ever, is not taken as necessarily indi-
eating delay in adjourning congress,
as the senate had no other business
before it when the resolution to take
up the Owens bill was adopted. Ad-
ministration leaders this afternoon ex-
pressed the opinion that it was too late
in the session for the Owens bill to
be voted upon, and republican leaders
said they would not permit it to reach
vote before adjournment
Leaders of both parties conferred
today and planned to adopt a concur
rent resolution fixing the time for ad-
journment as soon as the revenue bill
conferees indicate they have agreed
upon the measure. AS soon as this
decision is reached, the debate on the
Owens bill is to be ended.
The house did not get the revenue bill
to conference today, the formal send
ing of the measure being delayed by
the action of Republican Floor Leader
Man, who said he desired time to in
spect the bill Majority Leader Kitchin
stated this afternoon that congress
will probably adjourn Thursday.

Corfu is too valuable as a naval base
