President Promises Sena-
tors General Will Con-
troll Building
Upper House Votes
Funds for Vessels
Opposition to National
Deficiency Measure End
ed by Wilson's Pledge

Washington. June ,. Following a
promise made by President Wilson TO
General Goethas and TO Democratic
Senators who have not the highest con-
fdence in Chairman Denman of the
Shipping Board, that the power to con-
duet the shipbuilding programme would
be delegated to General Goethals and
no one else, the conferrccs OF the two
houses agreed to-day, and the Senate
approved their report on the war de-
ficiency bill. The measure carries total
appropriations Of nearly s3,5OO'Ooo'-
900, and authorizes total expenditure
Of $3.50 100000 for ships.
The language of the shipping amend
ment, with regard to the question who
shall have the tremendous powers Tor
Communicating shipyards. steel plants
or whatever may be needed for the
rapid construction Of shipping, seems
q victory for the House. As drawn by
the Senate. the President was author
lied to delegate this power only to the
General manager Of the shipping cor
marathon. The House committee re-
wrote this section, authorizing the
President to delegate the power to any
one he chose.
Senators Firm for Goethais
Fearing that this would result in the
presiden: granting the power to Mr.
Denman, the Senate conferrees stood
firm for their amendment. and the dis-
agreement was reported back to the two
houses. \ situation was created by
This friction which was holding up the
awarding Of contracts for shipbubildmg'
despitc the fact that both Senate and
House at heart agreed that General
Goethals was the man TO build the
ships. and not Mr.. Denman.
The President solved the problem BY
promising that if the language was lett
omen he would exercise no discretion
in the matter, but would delegate the
mower conferred in the bill to General
Goetbals. With this assurance that
General Goethals would get the powers
and not Mr. Denman. as the President
intimated in his talk with Senator'S
several weeks ago. the Senator's who
had been opposing the President yielded
on the mere point Of language.
No Opposition in Senate
When the measure was brought up IN
tie Senate to-day, as a result Of the
word being passed around to those Sen
ators who were with General Goethals
in the Denman- -Goethals controversy.
there was not question or COM
ment. Senators Martin and Underwood,
of the conferrces, sighed with relief
when the Senate finally approved the
big war budget.
The measure will probably be ap-
proved by the House on Monday and
will be signed at once by the Presi-
dent.
Appropriations Of Sl.iOO.o0O TO pur-
chase the jamestown Exposition site
and other property near Norfolk for
naval training purposes were retained
and s1.6OO,OOO was added for equip
ment Of the property as a base.
Most OF the bill had previously been
agreed to by both houses Of Congress.
To-day's action is final and complete.

the bourgeoisie and therefore must
 have imperialistic tendencies
 At the same time the socialists real
 ize their own limitations and are not
 willing to assume responsibility for
 busting the present government and assuming the actual conduct of affairs.
 The ministers have hinted at the pos
 sibility of forcing the issue by resign
 ing, unless they receive the support
 that they have solicited The outspoken
 threat to resign in a body uttered in the heat of last weeks crisis, brought from the council of delegates the frank avowal that the council is not ready to assume governmental responsibiii- ties. Needless to say, the position of
 the council, if it accepted the suegested participation, would be much less spec tacular than at present. The view of the extreme left group was outlined
 by Soukhanoff today in the Novaia
 Zhizn. Tn the first stage of the revo- lution,' he said, the Russian democ- racy, personified by the council of dep uties, refrained from participation in a ministry of the bourgeois. partly from precedent and partly because it could not subscribe to a program of con- tinuation of the war. While admittin~
 that changed conditions now give rise to the necessity of a coalition govern ment. the effort of the ministers is re- garded at the same time as an attempt to take hostages from the socialists to bolster up the bourgeois policy. This
 attempt must be thWarted."
