WAR BUSINESS
CHOKES DOCKETS
Senate is Expected to Pass
Espionage Bill Some
time Today.

WASHINGTON, May IA Con-
eress begins the sixth week Of war
Monday with the calendars Of both
houses still filled with legislation
which the administration feels is es-
sential 10 the successful conduct of
the conflict with Germany.
The senate after two weeks de-
bate on the espionage bill drawn
by the department of justice is ex-
pected to pass that measure Mon
day.
The house probably will conclude
discussion Of the S1,S00,00O, 900 war
revenue bill early in the week and
send it 10 the senate, where two
days Of committee hearings have in
dicated that many changes are to be
made in its structure before IL goes
70 the White house for the presi-
dents signature.
In the presidents espionage bill
the censorship question caused much
opposition 10 its passage. The injec-
ton of an amendment prohibiting
the use of cereals or grains in the
manufacture of intoxicants during
the war, although a bitter pill TO
the foes of prohibition. probably
will not greatly delay ultimate pas
sage Of the entire measure.
Food Control Bill Next.
Plans of leaders in the senate are
not clear as TO what measure of the
several important ones shall be tax
en- up after the espionage bill. but
it is probable it will be the food con-
troll bill, a subject looked upon by
administration leaders as of vital
and pressing Importance.
Conferees on the war army bill
called to meet again Monday because
the house after once rejecting the
so-called Roosevelt amendment, now
wants TO put il in, are not expected
TO take long at their task and Mon
day the bill may reach the senate
floor. Since the Roosevelt amend
ment originated in that body it is
possible that the army measure can
be disposed of without much debate
and early in the week sent TO the
president.
Expect Much Debate on Food Bill.
In the house an effort may be
made TO put food control legislation
through after the war revenue bill.
The department of agriculture has
sent bills on the subject 10 the
house. The measures received com
mittee approval and are virtually
ready for the floor
In both houses the food legislation
is expected to cause much debate
and arouse some decided opposition
although it probably will have the
force of the administration for IL. II
is almost certain that a measure will
be passed giving the department OF
a agriculture money and authority to
make a food survey OF the country
and 10 curb speculation in food pro-
ducts.
The senate finance committee
Monday will continue hearings on
the war tax bill, and consider par
stamp, estate and inheri-
lance taxes. and the proposed new
postal rates.
Members of congress Sunday re-
ceived by wire and mail, protests
against different provisions of the
bill. Many automobile manufactur-
ers, complaining of the proposed tax
of five percent on their gross sales,
pointed out that this would fall on
all manufacturers alike, regardless
of whether their profits are large or
small.
