Washington, Feb. 20.-Secretary
of State Lansing and Attorney Gen
eral Gregory today asked the senate
judiciary committee to recommend
Immediately bill giving the presi-

erent countries SO long as intarna-
tiOnal law, as understood by us, is
not violated by our trade or COM
merce. If the bill is passed, it is un-
derstood, that the president will not
go before congress at all unless some
thing occurs which would require a
