U. s. TAKES OVER INTERNED
SHIPS

Washington, April 3O-By unani-
nous vote the Senate passed reso-
luton tonight providing for transfer
to the American government the title
and possession of enemy ships In
American ports, and their use in COM
merce under direction Of the Ship
ping Board.
There are about 100 German and
many Austrian ships in American
ports and all are under repair, though
the Austrian ships are not included
in the resolution as the United States
and Austria are not at war.
One Of the German ships-the Clara
Mennig-is ready for sea and will
begin loading cargo tomorrow for
Italy. The Piza, another, will be re-
paired by Wednesday and will take
be ready by the end of the week.
The resolution was debated in the
Senate today for more than four
hours behind closed doors. The dis
cussions centered on questions Of
damages for the seized vessels after
the war, but all efforts to provide a
measure by which owners of the
property would be given a right to
sue in courts of the United States
were defeated. Legislation of this
kind will be left to later date, pos
sibly until Germany has shown her
determination to provide legal meth
cd by which Americans who have been
damaged by illegal submarine de-
struction of American property may
have redress.
The passage of the resolution was
forced by Senator Knox, of Penn
sylvania, q former Secretary of State
who said it will be a crime if the
ships were not taken over at once
and used as targets for the German
submarines,

that some time should be given to
systematic Bible study. He expects
to begin a series which will take the
lovers of the Word through an IN

the Epistles of st. Paul, taking them
in the order of their writing.
