Many enthusiastic persons managed
to get snapshots Of the American YES
sells in Queenstown harbor, but the
best pictures. and those that are des-
tined to become famous. are the NOV
ing pictures taken BY the official Brit
tsh government photographer, as the
hotilla steamed into port. With his
camera mounted on q small tug, tho
operator went out to meet the destroy
ers and filmed them from many angles.
On arriving in Queenstown, some Of
the members Of the crews Of the de-
stroyers wer granted brief shore
leave. They were fairly made captives
by the townspeople. who insisted on
taking them to their homes, whore
they piled the sailors with good things
to eat and drink. They were the first
American naval mon seen In these
parts for many years. and they were
bomharded with questions concerning
the happenings In America by people
who have relatives there.
Al they wandered through the
streets the Americans observed the
Stars and Stripes flying from many
buildings. They were told that these
were hoisted to celebrate the entry Of
the United States into the war and had
been left there as an honor to the
American sailors whom they had been
expecting.

criticised.
The council was charged with MS

The shippins board was assailed for
alleged interference with private shin
builders and for insisting upon ia

The President was attacked for al

sultAtlon with congress.
The upsfot Of the entire discuss
sion was adoption Of an amendment
by Senator Sterling Of South Dakota
setting forth that the powers OF the
Council Of National Defense shall not
be considered enlarged because Of
war conditions. A section Of the
bill appropriatins $500. 900 for the de-

debate.
