laration of Nations Prin-
ciples-Hall is Crowded.
LAWMAKERS ADJOURN

WASHINGTON, Oct. -6.-Congress
entered the last hour of the session
with all attention turned to the SEN
ate where Senator La Toilette took the
floor to make three hour speech in
answer to the critics who have petit
toned for bis expulsion because OF
his course and public utterances to-
ward the war.
BY prearrangem ent, two hours were
reserved in which senators were to
reply at the close of his speech and
unless some unforeseen developments
took place adjournment for congress
for the session was expected at 800
o'clock this afternoon.
Members Of the house, which only
was marking time waiting for the
senate, focked to the senate chamber
where galleries and floors were
jammed in expectation of spectacu-
lar finale to the session which has
appropriated hitherto unheard of bill
lions for Americas participation in
the worlds war and has passed a
score of war measures in an incredit-
ably short time.
Reads His Speech
LaFollette, always a spectacular
figure in debate, and acknowledged as
no mean opponent by his enemies,
spent yesterday and most of the night
preparing his speech. Standing at
his seat in the front row before the
vice presidents desk LaFollette began
his address reading carefully and de
hberately his manuscript with senat-
ors giving close attention. The pros
pect was that his carefully chosen
words would not evoke some Of the
replies planned.
Defending his course of opposing the
declaration of war and subsequent at
tacks on war policies, La Toilette de-
clared:
1T is the citizens duty to obey the
law until it is repealed or declared un-
constitutional. But he has the inalien-
able right to fight what he deems an
obnoxious law or a wrongful policy In
the court and at the ballot box"
Claims Right to Talk.
Every preparation for prosecuting
the war must be made, the Wisconsin
senator declared, but he claimed the
right to discuss honest differences of
opinion.
Shall we ask the people to shut
their eyes and take the entire war
program on faith?" he asked The
way to paralyze the German arm is to
declare our object in this war and
show that we are not seeking to die
tate form of government to Germany
or 10 render England's domination of
| tie seas more secure. When the OBJ.
| iects of this war are clearly stated
and the people approve they will give
