House to Conclude Discus sion of $1, 800, 100000 War Revenue Bill Early
 in the Week
CONFEREES ON WAR ARMY BILL TO TAKE
 LONG AT THEIR TASK
Food Legislation Will Call for Much Debate in Both House and, Senate, Although the Admin
 istration Forces Are
 Behind It

Washington. May 13.-Congress
 begins the sixth week tomorrow
 with calendars of both houses
 filled with legislation which the
 administration feels is essential to
 the successful conduct of the con Y fIict wfth Germany. '' s N
 The Senate, after two weeks debate is expected to pass the espionage bill tomorrow.
 The House probably will conclude dis cussion Of the s1.sOO,Ooo0O0 war revenue bill early in the week and send it to the Senate, where two days of committee hearing have indicated that many changes are to be made in it's structure.
 ESPIONAGE BILL STRIPPED The espionage bill has been stripped Of the press censorship section and the injection of an amendment last night prohibiting the use of cereals or gains in the manufacture of intoxicants dur ing the war, although bitter pill to the foes of prohibition, probably will not greatly delay ultimate passage of the entire measure.
 Plans of leaders in the Senate are not clear as to what measure shall be taken up after the espionage bill, but it is probable it will be the food control bill, a subject looked upon by administration leaders a of vital and pressing import ance.
 Ccnferees on the war army bill called to meet again tomorrow because the public after once rejecting the so-called Roosevelt amendment now wants to put it in, are now expected to take long at their task and the bill may reach the Senate floor. Since the Roosevelt amendment originated in that body it is possible that the army measure can be disposed of early in the week and sent to the President
 FOOD LEGISLATION FOLLOWS
 In the House an effort may be made to put food control legislation through after the war revenue bill. The depart ment of agriculture has sent bills on the subject to the House committee The measures are virtually ready for the floor.
 In both houses the food legislation is expected to cause much debate and al ouse some decided opposition, although it probably will have the force of the administration behind it. It is almost certain that measure will be passed giving the department of agriculture money and authority to make a food survey of the, country and to curb specu- lation in food products.
