ESPIONAGE BILL LIKELY TO BE
PASSED THIS WEEK

Washington, May 1.-The Admins
trative Espionage bill was taken up
by the Senate tonight and made the
unfinished business with view to
passing it during the present week.
The so-called censorship section
already had been approved by the
Senate but there will be opportuni-
ties during the week to consider it
again. A provision authorizing the
President to declare an embargo on
exports that might go through neu-
trail countries to Germany and Aus
tria is expected to lead to vigorous
opposition.
A similar bill is pending before the
House, where Representative Kahn,
of California, announced today he
would introduce an amendment to
place the uower of censorship in the
hands of a committee consisting of
four experienced newspapermen, one
representative each of the State, War
and Navy departments.

BELGIUM WILL GET BIG LOAN

Washington, May lin addition to
loans to France and Italy, totalling
between $2OO,OOO,OOO and $500 ,OOO, 900,
the United States will soon make a
loan to Belgium, the amount of which
Is yet to be determined. Unofficial es-
Inmates of the size of the Belgian loan
places it approximately at $15O,OOO.-
900.
Administration officials have been
in a receptive mood toward an appli-
cation for Belgian loan ever since
the war financial measure became a
law, but formal application for loan
was not made until today, when the
Belgian minister, Baron de Cartier,
called upon Secretary McAdoo and
placed before him estimates of the
relief desired.
Further conferences will be held
before the estimate of Belgian needs
Is placed in final form for consideya-
ton. There is said to be a wide div
ergence between the first estimates of
the Entente governments as to their
requirements and their final estimates
made after a process Of elimination
during conferences with Treasury De-
partment officials.
Discussion of French and Italian
needs continued today in conferences
between Secretary McAdoo Assistant
Secretary Crosby, the Italian ambas-
sador and members of the French
commission.
Indications are that the French and
Italian loans will be made within the
present week, the time limit an
nounced by Secretary McAdoo last
week..
The Belgian loan probably will not
be ready until q somewhat later date.
Funds for the French and Italian
loans will be raised by a further Of
fer Of treasury certificates expected
within the next few days. In this
connection, Secretary McAdoo had
under consideration o suggestion
made by the Federal Reserve Board,
looking to the gradual location Of the
forthcoming bond issue.

day. He first took them to Sunday

bunch of lilac blossoms remain to re-
mind him of this fifteenth milestone In
the journey of life.

PAULINE FREDERiCkS GETS PICTURES.

Several early morning riders in Gen. tral Park. New York were greatly alarmed at the sight of Pauline Fred erick galloping in mad pursuit of a queer-looking covered motor car. Var ious primal emotions filtered across the face of the Famous Players Para mount star as she galloped along. all of which would have been most puzz- ling to one who was of a suspicious nature. Close investigation of the cov- cred motor car would have disclosed a small aperture in the back curtain. through which one could catch a glimpse of motion-picture camera. The subterfuge was necessary because of the fact that the taking of motion pictures in the park is forbidden. but Director Robert Vignola decided the park was the only place to take the scene required.
