hour tho session was culivened by debate
over the governments neutrality policy,

American citizens on nelligerent-own
ships.
PARTY LINES ABOLISHED.
There was no division of the debaters
along party lines. Senator Jones of Wash
inston. republican denounced as "un-
patriotic" American citizens who i'm
perillcd the nation by taking passage on
beligcrent vessels. Senator's Works of
California, republican. asserted that the
government of the United States was
"hvpocritcaliy" claiming to be neutral
when it was in fact participating in the
war through the sale Of munitions. Sena-
tor Lodge, ranking republi. an member
i Of the foreign reIat committee, dc
clared that to place an embargo on arms
now would be worth more to Germany
than : million men that il would be n
grossly unncutral act" and would in fact
r1ake tho United States the allv Of Gcr-
many. Senators OGorman of New Yor;

Gratis, urged tho adviSahility of an eln.
