Mann Blocks Plans
 to Hurry Food BM
 Through Conference

Washington, July 24.-The administra- tion,s programme of food legislation en- countered another delay today when Re- publican Leader Mann blocked plans to hurry the food control bill to conference. The proposal to create a joint committee of Congress on expenditures of the war, written into the bill in the Senate and objected to by President Wilson as sig nifying a lack of confidence in him, was the feature which started the trouble The republican leader rallied many members of his party about him and tonight the situation had taken on the aspect of partisan fight virtually for the first time since the war session met.
 Administration leaders. despairing of sending the bill to conference under a unanimous consent agreement. are pre- pared to bring in special rule tomorrow under which they expect to force con- ference and in addition to instruct the conferees to disagree to all Senate amend ments
 Taking the administration managers by surprise, MT. Mann served notice when the bill came up today that he would not give the unanimous consent for the bill to go to conference unless a separate vote was permitted on the war committee proposal. A nasty canvass of those pres ent convinced the administration men that they could not be certain of ma jority for the amendment and adjourn ment was taken.
 Unanimous consent again will be asked tomorrow before the special rule is in- voked, but the republican leaders have summoned the entire membership here for vote and partisan division seems certain In preparation for it the dem ocrats frightened up their lines tonig Int to insure the presence of a democratic majority. It was thought possible that few democrats would vote with the republicans.
 Adoption of the rule will virtually preclude separate votes also on the S, | minimum for wheat and prohibition amendments, strongly desired by seY- eral House democrats.
 HOUSE WILL NOT DELAY ] Throughout the debate today Chair man Lever. in charge of the bill, prom l sed that the House democratic con 1 ferees would do their utmost to force acceptance of the original provisions ! of the House bill. In that form there was no provision for either a war cx-

 Commercial Fleet

Washington. July 24.--President Wilson brought the shipping board row to an abrupt termination today by eliminating the two principals, William Denman, chairman of the board, and Maj.-Gen. George w! Goc- gency fleet corporation in charge of construction.
 The resignation of General Goethals, tendered some days ago, was accepted and MT. Denman was asked by the President to follow suit that the gov- ernments building programme might go forward without embarrassm
 HURLEY IS NAMED
 Edward N Hurley of Chicago for mer chairman of the federal trade com mission, was named by the President to become chairman of the board and Bainbridge Colby of New York was appointed successor to Capt John B. White of Kansas City. another board member whose resignation. offered to the President month ago. also was laecepted. Rear Admiral Washington | L. Capps. chief constructor of the navy. will succeed General Goethals as man. lager of the fleet corporation, taking immediate charge of the building pro- gramme.
 SENATE TO BE PROMPT The nominations of MT. Hurley and Mir Colby went to the Senate this aft ernoon and were referred to the com
  firmation was predicted by both demo- cratic and republican leaders. MT. Denman sent his resignation to the White House immediately after re- ceipt of the Presidents letter request 1 ing it. The Presidents action mani festly took him by surprise but his only comment was this:
 BEST WAY, SAYS DENMAN
 Ut was the best way to settle the whole thing. I want to help the Presi- dent in every way possible and never have questioned the wisdom of his de- , cisionsD
 l It was reported tonight that Theo- dore Brent, vice chairman of the board, who has been strong supporter of MT. Denman's position, had offered to quit the board If the President thought 1t best, but at the White House it was said no communication had been re- ceived from him. John A. Donald and R. B. Stevens the other board mem bers, who have lined up with General Goethals, said they had no intention of lresigning.
 CAME AS SURPRISE l The Presidents method of ending the controversy came as a great surprise Ito most officials here, who had believed he would make final effort to com- pose the situation by dividing definitely Ebetwen the shipping board and the manager of it's corporation the powers conferred on the executive by Congress.

with their galling fire of infantry and machine guns
 The Germans having ceased their vlo- lent infantry attacks against the French troops along the Chemin-d -des-Dames in France General Petain's forces have as- sumed the initiative and have taken back from the enemy the small advantage gained in terrain during his weeks of tenacious assaults. The lost ground on the California plateau and the Classmates plateau has all been recaptured and the French, in spite of vicious counter at tacks by tried regiments of the German crown prince, have even pushed their line forward at several points in the latter region.
 BATTLE IN BELGIUM
 The artillery battle in northern Bel gium, which has been in progress for sometime has reached an intensity never before experienced. While the British of fical communication has as yet only bare ly mentioned the fact that the big guns are hammering away the probability is that General Haig is preparing for an other of his great drives, similar to those made on the Arras and Lens fronts. which worked great havoc on the German positions and gave the British fcrces bases of important strategic value from whence to continue their operations.

penditures committee. food board Of three members or $2 wheat and tho prohibition sections contemplated a bone-dry country.
 Insistence by MT. Lever that the House do nothing to delay final pua- sage of the bill went far toward in- ducing bone-dry advocates and others to agree to sending the measure to conference with only general disagree ment instructions.
 T particularly urge that you not tie the hands of the House conferees,' he said. The House thus far has not been guilty of delay in the passage of this bill,' and the delay on it now amounts almost to national scandal"
 The democratic leaders had under stood that Mir. Mann was willing to see the bill go to conference with in- structions that the conferees disagree to all Senate amendments. and pro ceeding on that assumption MT. Lever had succeeded in, silencing the de mands of those who favor the s2 wheat amendment. and all the prohibition leaders, for separarte votes on thc'r proposals.

Under New Ruling.

Washington, August 19-Renewed

President Wilson's letter to Senator
Weeks dealing with this and other
subjects. In many quarters, the Pres
ident's statement that he had no doubt
Senator Weeks point as to the exemp-
tion Of married men was well taken
was interpreted as an indication that
he approved exemption of any man of
family who had not married merely to
escape military duty.
The President has full power to di-
rect that the regulations governing
selection be amended to this effect. A
proposal specifically to exempt all
married men was made when the bill
was in the Senate, an amendment tc
that effect of Senator Smith OF
Georgia being lost by wide margin
