The Senate agreed by unanimuos

o'clock today on the conference
report on the recent additions to
the espionage bill The conference

Senator McCumber, of North Da-
kota. spoke for the conference re-
port.
II do not fear that the rights of
free speech will be affected" he
said. 1.-THE bill hits only at those
who are disloyal."
But Senator Sherman. Of Illinois,
made a lengthy speech against the
report. He declared 1t would throt-
tie press and public. During his
speech. he alluded to Secretary OF
War Bakers speech last year. in
which the Secretary said Revolu-
tionary soldiers stole silver and
melted 1t up to buy drinks.

League; Victor Berger, and the I.

living soldiers. when our Secretary

diers?' inquired the Illinois senator.
During Senator McCumber's
speech he asked that this country
send 5000, 900 men to the war. and
thus let the country do its duty"
He also said that the shipping pro-
gramme was not large enough.

REFUSES REQUEST
OF SHIPPING BOARD
Lake Carriers Association Arbi-
tranly Turns Down Proposal.

Definite, downright refusal Of the
Lake Carriers Association to Join
other shipowners and operators, in
cluding all those of the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts and all othhers of the
Great Lakes, in conference here with
the marine labor leaders and Shipping
Board officials, marked the session
Of the conference yesterday.
Commissioner Page, Of the Ship
ping Board, conducted special
meeting with the committee here rep
resenting the Lake Carriers Associa-
tion, but Shipping Board officials last
night reported the committee obdu-
rate In its refusal TO Join the ship
ping interests working together here
to assure man-power for the new
ships to carry war supplies.
The association operates about 4Oc
vessels. mostly bulk freight carriers,
and employs approximately 1900
men. The other freight carriers, pas
senger' package and lumber, are rep
resented at the conference and have
pledged themselves to abide by the
decisions Of the board in any of the
matters brought before the confer
ence.
III q iSbblus anu spirited discussion
over the employment Of Chinese labor
exclusively aboard some Pacific coast
vessels. Andrew Furuseth, president
OF the International Seaman's Union,
charged that the officers of these
ships. naming the Pacific Mail and
the Dollar Line. were forced, in or
der to keep their Chinese crews, to
permit gambling tables for the sew
eral departments of the crew and to
provide a separate room for the Chi
nese to smoke opium. Mr.. FUuseth
made the point that. whereas Ameri-
cans might get drunk ashore. the
Chinese were drunk all the time with
opium
Representatives of both Pacific Mail
and the Dollar interests denied this
promptly. the Pacific Mail represen-
tative divulging as a countercharRe
that the only gambling was done by
passengers and that the only room
maintained for smoking opium was
for the exclusive use OF those in the
saloon.
