WASHINGTON. March <. - After more than one hundred years under rules permitting debate limited only by the physical endurance of senators and the provisions cf the constitution. the senate tonight, by a vote Of 76 to 3. put power in the hands of two thirds of it's members in the future to limit discussion and to say when a vote shall be taken on a pending measure.
 The organized flibuster as recog- nized in the past is dead.
 Action came unexpectedly after six hours debate on the new rule. drafted by a bipartisan committee. Although both Democrats and Republicans had approved the change in caucus. and Senator Martin, the majority floor leader. had given notice that the sen ate would be kept in continuous ses- sion until a vote was taken, nearly

So, when potatoes failed and bread was ordered as a substitute. there was none available Flour has been sim ilarly reduced. owing to some irregu- larities in the mills"
 Dr. Michaelis concluded by urging the utmost severity to remedy the shortcoming while there was yet time. Some of the mills would have to be closed and the municipalities deprived of their autonomous powers. Ration ing and food requisitioning must be strictly applied with respect to eggs. milk, butter, fruit and vegetables. He added:
 We are confronted with the thought of what would happen if this measure also should fail and what German grim starvation there would be If suddenly during the closing months of the economic year we should find there was unsufficiency and We could not hold out The ensuing misery would be indescribable."

I recall Professor Abbes' re- tirement from the council of the war feeding department: the strikes of intuition workers in Essen and Der lin. owing to under-feeding, have only too well justified him."
 The minister of agriculture then rose and vigorously defended himself against attacks. He alluded 10 the critical scene created by the partial success of the entente's plan of starv- ing Germany, and added:

 One problem involved in considera- tion of the situation is the probable difficulty over the organization of the next house because of the almost evenly distributed balance of power between the Democrats and Republi- cans. A long drawn fight probably would delay action on the armed neu- trality question-a contingency which the President is determined to avoid.
 It is taken for granted in all guar. ters that before July l, MT. Wilson will summon an extra session of con- gress. The only question open to- night was whether it would be called immediately. Many members of the old house have left for their homes, and some of the new members are not

The senate amendments to the apprO- priation bill did not encounter as stubborn opposition in the house as had been expected and the classifica- tion bill had not been vitally altered in the house.

He had acted for his government in several important diplomatic exchanges with Japan, including the California anti alien controversy.
 Thought Health Good.

 The department cabled a message of condolence to Mrs. Guthrie, who is understood to have been with her husband at the time of his death.
