ships were seized in other ports by
the British government, The amend
ment is in line with that put into the
shipping bill. but goes much further
and is far more efficacious as a rem
edy.
A Revolutionary Amendment.
Another amendment that its APP
ponents characterized as revolution
airy, offered by Senator Phelan, would
prohibit the use OF the mails, the
cable, wireless. express and other
means of communication to citizens of
countries that do not accord full and
free facilities to American citizens in
commerce, including the unham-
pered traffic in the mails"
The amendment intends that all
American citizens shall have the same
free use of these means of communi-
cations with any helligerent country
that is accorded the citizens of bel
ligerent countries in the United States
The prohibition is to be enforced when
the President shall be satisfied that
there is reasonable ground to believe
such discrimination exists and after
A proclamation has been issued This
amendment also was adopted without
protest.
On August 80 an amendment offered
by Senator James was adopted that
Is Intended as a reprisal against the
British order prohibiting the export
of tobacco and other goods and pro-
ducts of the United States into coun-
tries not only of the belligerentss but
of the neutral countries of Northern
Europe. When the President knows
that articles OF the United States are
prohibited from any country, he shall
place an embargo against any similar
articles from the offending country.
If II has no similar articles imported
in the United States then the restric-
ton shall be placed upon any other
goods or merchandise that in the
Judgment of the President the public
interest may require.
To Deal With Discrimination.
In another section of the revenue
bill Is an amendment, general in
character and bearing no relation to
the war. that gives the President a
weapon against discrimination. 1t
provides that whenever any country.
dependency. etc, shall prohibit the
importation of any article the prod

dent. within his discretion, shall have
power to prohibit during the period
that such prohibition Is In force. the
