SENATE EFFEcTUAuLY
STOUS FlFIBUSTERING.

WASHINGTON, March 12.-The way
for an extraordinary SESSION of Con
gress to vest President Wilson with
full and complete authority to arm
American ships and protect American
rights at sea now lays clear and open
Casting aside the traditions of more
than a century, the Senate of the Unit.
ed States, on Thursday, by an over
whelming vote, 76 to 8. amended its
rules to provide for a limitation on
debate that would prevent any f1libus
ter by little group of willful men,
such as the maneuver which prevented
the enactment of the Presidents arm
ed neutrality resolution during the
closing days of the last Congress.
In his recent statement attacking
the Senators who blocked the armed
ships measure, the President declared
the unlimited-debate rule of the Senate
was the reason which would make an
extraordinary session of the SiXty-fifth
Congress to consider the bill futile.
Thursday night that reason no longer
existed
A few brief hours of debate over
threw the time-honored Senate privil-
eye of unlimited debate-a privilege
which had survived almost constant at
tack since the early days of the repub-
lie. Confronted with the Presidents
demand that the way be cleared for
action that would enable him TO meet
the greatest emergency the nation
ever knew, 76 Senators voted for rule
which will allow two-thirdS of the Sen
ate to limit Jebate on any pending pro.
posal.
Only three Senators, LaFollette, Of
wisconsin; Gronna, of North Dakota
and Sherman, of Illinois. all Republi-
cans, voted against the rule. Senators
LaFollette and Gronna were two of the
IL denounced by the President as the
little group of willful men represent
ing no opinion but their own, who have
rendered the great Government of the
United States helpless and contemp-
ible." through their fight on the armed
neutrality measure, voted against
cloture on the merits of the rule.

In answer TO the war cry for ton

vessels is plying Up and down the

of old-fashioned craft whose noses
have long been in the mud and whose
commercial value seemed to have van

old relics are filing the needs of yes
sels-and the brave front of the eight
zenith century ship, with its heroic
ieurehead, is again seen in New York
harbor after many years.
The fgurehead died hard among
other nations. AS an expression of the
poetry and superstition of seamen IT
has lived since the Egyptians and
Phoenicians decorated their prows
with the carved figure of an ibis. To-
tus, q phoenix, or sometimes a gigantic
and all-seeing eye, and then confident
ly set sail under its protection. For
these thousands of years the figure
head has been the seaman's god. Ha
has trusted the figurehead no less than
his compass or his captain, and there
is not a sailor today of the old school
who would not welcome its return TO
modern vessels.
