CENSORSHIP
IS STRICKEN
FROM MEASURE
Senate, by Small Vote, Re-
jects This Feature Of
Espionage Bill.

Washington. May 1.-THE newspa-
per censorship provisions were strick-
on entirely from the administration
espionage bill today in the senate by
q vote Of 30 to SO on motion of Sena-
tor johnson. Of California.
Senator Kirby introduced an
providing for 4 definite
press censorship under the supervision
Of the secretaries Of war and the navy
and that was defeated IS to 8.
Prohibition against the employment
or use of cereals, grains or other edi-
BILE things in the manufacture Of bev-
erages and liquors during the war and
one year after, was proposed a. an
amendment by Senator Cummins.
Senators voting to eliminate the
censorship included Gronna and
among those voting against tho elm
ination was McCumber.
This action. II permitted to stand
on r1nal passage Of the bill, leaves the
house on record in favor Of the CEN
sorship and the senate against 1t, and
probably will throw the question into
conference committee for settle
ment, where the full force Of the adj
ministration will be exerted to put Q
censorship through in some form.
Without q record vote the senate
adopted an amendment to make the
whole bill effective only for the dura-
ton Of the war.

party, indicates that Chancellor Won
Hollweg does not intend
to make a statement with regard to
peace terms before the reichstag. The
chancellor has evidently won over tho
Centrists and part Of the National
Liberal delegation to his view that a
discussion Of peace terms at tho pres
ent time is inadvisable. In view Of
the general attitude Of majority So
cialists leaders. it would not be sur
their intention Of forcing a peace de-
bate.
Tho result Of the proposed inter-
pellations is very probable to be q
controversy between the opponents
and supporters Of the chancellor
rather than a debate on peace pos
sibilities.
The conservatives are daily grow.
ing more desperate as the work of
tho constitutional revision committee
proceeds without any Intervention
from the government to dam the
wave Of reform whioh threatens the
political influence Of the Junkers.
