senate APPROVES SELLING
ALL ENEMY ALIEN PROPERTY
Unanimous Vote Follows Long Scathing Denun-
citation of German Kultur and Intrigue - Sen
ator Martin Would Withhold Compensation
Until Germany Reimburses U. S. for Billions of
Dollars of American Property Destroyed

Washington, March 11-Legislation
authorizing the sale of all enemy pro-
perry in this country requested by the
Alien property custodian to permanent
ly uproot German commercial influence
was approved today by the Senate and
added to the urgent deficiency appro-
priation bill An amendment empower
ing the President to acquire title to
the German steamship companies
docks and wiarves at Hoboken. n. j.,
also was accepted The vote on the
provision for sale of enemy property
was unanimous, "a to and came after
several hours scathing denunciation of
German kultur and intrisues for world
domination.
Legal Meaning Enemy Property
Enemy property within the meaning
of the law is property owned in an
enemy country and official assurances
have been given that there is no lnten-
ton to interfere with the property or
money of Germans or Austrians living
in this country. The purpose is TO Sc
we're forever the. hold of Germans in
Germany upon vast commerclal ana
industrial enterprises i'll the United
States.
Under the Trading with the Enemy
act the alien property custodian takes
possession of and administers these
properties, but is without authority
finally to dispose Of them. The new
LEGISLATION will empower him to place
them in American hands.
Question Treaty Violation
Virtually the only questions raised IN
today's debate were the possibility of vlo-
latinr the treaty of 1893 between Prussia
and the United States and of too hasty
action by Congress. Expected opposition
to the provision for purchase of the Ham
burg-American and North German Lloyd
docks at Hoboken failed to materialze
Prompt approval of both provisions by
the House is expected as soon as the
Senate finally disposes of the s2,O0o,O0O,0N
urgent deficiency appropriation bill to
which they are added.
Before the Senate acted, Democratic
Leader Martin presented a memorandum

from the state departments legal bureau
declaring that the 1899 treaty was not re-
garded as applicable.
What is to be done with the proceeds
Of the sale Of German interests which
some senators today suggested are owned
in part by Emperor William himself. is
a policy to be determined later. In maxi
ing this clear, Senator Martin declared
that he believed personally that Germany
should not receive one dollar until she
compensates Americans for property lille
gally destroyed.
Compensate America First
Speaking for myself, and. think, the
American people," said the senator, IF
the German people ever get any compeh-
sation it will be after they have compen
stated the American people for the mil
Ions-I would even say billions-of dollars
worth of property they have ruthlessly
destroyed
1T is inconceivatle." he added, III
we are to make an accounting, that j,
shall be made without an accountin2
from Germany for the destruction
of property of American citizens. God

am compelled to-"
The Germany regards the 1893 treaty
as mere scrap Of paper" was assert
ed by Senator Underwood of Alabama
who said the treaty does not interfere
with the sale of German property pro-
posed.
Let the Junker know that America
is fighting in earnest" said Mr.. Tn
derWood.
Senator Stone of Missouri, chairman
| of the foreign relations committee, said
| that examination of the treaty Of 1875
and various authorities on international
| law convinced him that the amendment
authorizing the sale Of enemy proper :

| Senator Frelinghuyscn said his purpose
was to protect American minority stock

! amendment, which is subject to a fnal
vote later. on the ground that it might
handicap action by A. Mitchell Palmer
enemy property custodian.

Demand Different Accounting
Thus in his first formal word to Russia
since that reyolution-torn country under
the leadership of the Bolsheviki deserted
the Allied cause the President indicates
the purpose of the United States to dis
regard the hard terms upon which the
German and Austrian war lords have
promised peace to the Russians and To
demand an accounting upon a very differ
ent basis when victory at last shall be
achieved by America and the Allies.
The President does not urge the SOW
lets TO reject the peace theaty. though
the delivery of his message may be inter
preted suggesting such a course Il,
fact it is conceded in official circles that
there is StdUl ground LOT nope tHil tHt
congress and what remains of a gov
eminent in Russia will refuse TO give APP
prevail to the German terms.
There seems to be a strong belief here
that difficulty for Germany in the east
is by no means ended; that as the hu-
initiating nature of the Teutonic termH
begins to he realized by the great mass
of Russians and the tyranny of war
lords in occupied territory shows its eff
f, feet there will be new uprising that will
make itself felt.
Coming at this time. the Presidents
message may serve to lessen misgivngu
in Russia over the proposed Intervention
OF Japan in Siberia. The understanding
here is that there is no difference of
opinion among the Allies that any oper-
atoms undertaken by Japan to check
| German Vaccinations in the cast and
protect the war stores in Vladivostok will
/ not threaten Russia's territorial inteR-
rity.

Helpful Recipes To Be
Had For The Asking.

The State Council Of Defense
has just gone to the expense OF
publishing a booklet containing
many recipes for the prepara-
tion of potatoes as food that the
people of the state may learn the
many ways of using potatoes and
thus get the good of q home
raised crop which has never been
used to much advantage by Lou
lSianans.
The advantage of using more
potatoes will not only help i'll win

so helpful to the southern house
