CONGRESS STANDS
BEHIND PRESIDENT

washington, March s.-President
Wilson yesterday completely and de-
cisively won his long fight to compel
congress to acknowledge that 1t stands
behind him in the submarine negotla- :
tions with Germany.
To the rallying cries OF stand by

Wilson or Won BernStorf and the kais-
err b. Democratic majority and
nearly half the Republicans In the
house rolled up overwhelming votes
axainst the movement to warn Amer

belligerents.
The celebrated McLemore resolution,
around which the anti administration
forces centered their fight, was tabled
-in other words killed-just as was
the Gore resolution for similar pur-
pose In the senate last week.
From the outset of the fight Tphs-

The First vote.
On the first vote. which was par

administration forces carried the day.
256 to 100. On that, 1872 Democrats. 63
Republicans and one Progressive voted
to support the administration. Twenty
one Democrats, 1872 Republicans, FIVE
Progressives. one Independent, and Re

This was the crucial vote of the
fieht, the one point on which admins

special rule for four hours discussion
of the McLemore resolution.
Again they carried the day, this time
271 to 1873. and then pushed the vic

McLemore resolution. 27e to 142.
Session a Turbulent One.
In seven hours of tense, turbulent
session. in which the administration
opponents charged that the president
was contending for doubtful legal
right, and was shifting the RESPONSE

forth in the most sensational congress
sional spectacle OF a decade, probably
unequalled since the eve OF the declar-
alton of war on Spain.
President Wilson, calm and conf
dent, heard the early results of the
voting in the cabinet room at the
White House with some of the cabi-
net grouped about him. He told them
he was much gratified with the sup
port of congress.
Released from the bonds of embar-
rassment forced upon him by the dis
sensions in congress, which have been
in foreign capitals as in
dicating that he was making his de-
mands on Germany in direct opposition

CALLS NOTICE
TO LOW COST OF HEALTH

DR.. J. S. B. Pratt, president of the
territorial board of health, calls atten-
ton to the fact that while living may
be expensive at the present time,
health costs little. He says:
1t costs nothing to stand up and
walk and breathe properly. Fresh air
in the home is free. 1t costs nothing
to chew the food thoroughly. 1t costs
to select the food best suited
to the body. It costs nothing to clean
the teeth twice a day. 1t costs no
more to stop using patent medicines.
1t costs no more to read good books
than trashy literature. 1t costs roth
ing to have cheerful, happy DISPOSE
ton, and stop having grouches These
things cost nothing, yet they will
bring content and reduce the doctors
bill to nothing a year.
