SENATE ACCEPTS AMENDMENT
TO URGENT DEFICIENCY BILL
Action Brings Legislation Nearer for Sale of
Enemy Property in u. S-Authorizes
Its Sale-Goes to House.

Legislation providing for the sale of
enemy property in the United States
was a step nearer completion today as
the result of the Senates approval yes
terday of amendments to the ugent de-
ficiency appropriation bill.
The amendments adopted by the SEN
ate authorize the disposal of property
in this country held by Germans in Ger
many as requested by Alien Property
Custodian Palmer and also empower the
President to acquire title to the Ho-
boken piers of the North German Lloyd
and Hamburg American steamship
lines.
Prompt approval of both provisions
by the House is expected as soon as the
Senate finally disposes of the $1,000
100000 deficiency bill and sends the
measure back to the House.
The action of the Senate was unani-
nous and followed several hours de-
bate. in which the methods of Germany
and German junkerdom were de-
nounced The roll call showed the vote
81 to in favor of the proposal.
Democratic Leader Martin brought up
the amendment to the bill authorizing
the alien property custodian to sell all
enemy property in the United states
and presented an opinion by the state
Department holding there is no treaty
obligation which would require the
American government to pay Germany
the proceeds.

-S|NKABLE LUCIA
MAY FAIL Of APPROVAL
Navy Experts Expect Unfavorable
Report From Board Investigate
ing Ships Merits.

Naval experts anticipate an unfavor
able report from the board, headed by
Rear Admiral Albert G.. Winterhalter,
which has just completed tests of the
former Austrian steamer Lucia. That
vessel has been equipped with interior
"buoyancy boxes designed to make her
unsuitable.
That the ship will remain afloat after
receiving injuries which would sink a
craft of ordinary construction is con-
coded. Constructors are, however, of
opinion that the "buoyancy boxes"
would not prevent a torpedo damaging
the vessel to such an extent that she
would be of no further value as a sup
ply ship or cargo carrier. In taking
that position naval engineers indorse
the decision already reached by the
shipping board.
Proponents of the "buoyancy box"
idea are expected to press for its adop-
ton in case of Army transports. hold
ing that even if the vessel when torpe-
doed settled until her decks are awash.

still would be protected IL is not be-
lieved, however, that this advantage
will impress Navy constructors suffi-
GENTLY to win their Endorsement

pairing it's official report for Secretary

Should Grant Protection.

'The German emperor demanded of
our am AMBASSADOR as a basis of his re-
ceIving free passports" continued the
Alabama senator, that he should
grant protection to German property
n the United States-a threat, or
course, that the representative of the
American nation had too much cour
age to yield to. But it showed the
concern of the German government to
protect property of its citizens in this
country. and why? Because it is en-
tirely probable that the German en-
peror himself, holding in the names of
other persons. owns q large part of the
property in0olved."
Surprise over the debating of this
question in view of Germany's utter
d :sregarding of treaties or property
rights not only of the countries she
has invaded. but also those of neutrals,
was voiced by. Senator Poindexter of
Washington, who asked if the treaty
of 1899 was any more sacred than that
between Germany and Belgium or the
others which Germany has regarded
as scraps of papers,

Senator Martin quoted from a state

replied My personal opinion is that

the most enlightened construction of
war. We should not be expected to make
enormous profits for Germany out of
the war waged on us. When any ac-
counting is made the balance will be
on the side of the United States. It

TOLD OF ROADS NEEDS
OF HIGHER FREIGHT RATE
John Shelton Williams Said Banks,
Holding Bonds, Would Lose Heav-
ily-Feared Road Receiverships.

While the railroads application for
Is per cent higher freight rates was
pending before the Interstate Commerce
Commission last November John Skel-
ton Williams. as controller of the cur
rency and spokesman for national
banks holding railroad bonds. wrote to
the commission. saying that, unless
higher rates were granted. hundreds
of roads probably would be thrown
into receiverships and banks would
lose heavily.
This was disclosed today, when Mr..
Williams, who recently was appointed
director of finance of the railroad ad-
ruinistration. made public the letter as
a supplement to his annual report The
letter was dated November /, and fol-
lowed by two weeks statement by
Mr. Williams to the newspapers, point
ing out the interest of national banks
in higher freight rates, as owners OF
$500, UOo. 900 worth of rail securities.

Matter of Policy.

Senator Martin said that the ques-
ton of disposing of the proceeds was
n matter of policy to be determined
at the peace table" at the end of the
war, and that Congress should not and
could not be called upon to settle that
policy now.
But it is inconceivable." the demo-
cratic leader added, that in making
an accounting off we ever make it,
that it must not be accompanied by
an accounting from Germany of the

erty, and the balance. ] am sure, Will

said if it had been involved. the. viola

property custodian law was passed. 1T
is no more violation to sell the prop
erty than to take it, he said.
Senator Underwood said the treaty of
1928 with Germany did not revive the
property clauses of the 1899 treaty
with the kingdom of Prussia, the lat
ter being the only treaty now recog-
nized by this government as being in
effect. 1t provides that property of
German merchants in the United States
should be taken out of the country
within nine months after the outbreak
of war.

adequate supply of foodstufs during

announcements made last night are
taken to indicate that past differences
have been put aside and that there is
to be a joint effort to feed America
and the other nations at war against
Germany.
Secretary Houston and Mr.. Hoover
united in a warning against profteer-
ing in seeds and in the creation of an
advisory committee of producers. Di-
rector General McAdoo issued instruc-
tions to the railroads to expedite the
movement OF seeds and farm ma
chinery.
Seedsmen were told plainly in the
statement issued by the heads of the
Department of Agriculture and the
food administration that reports of ex-
tortion had been received and that spe-
ciic information of efforts to take
unfair advantage of the existing sit
uation would result in promp action
by the government to punish the Of
tenders.
Mr.. McAdoo's instructions to the rail-
roads were issued as the result of COM
plants that there had been an in
cIination to delay shipments of seeds
and farm machinery and tools, The
railroads were directed TO make a
point of facilitating such shipments.
The order said: We must at this
time impress upon all the necessity of
giving special attention to the handling
of seed and agricultural implements
for the next sixty days, that they may
be ready for spring planting"

when he was released for the trip to
this country. Although severely
wounded twice, he is still in fighting
trim. Once he was shot through the
chest, and the second time through the
head. When shot through the chest
he lay on the field in No Mans Land
for two days and two night, before
the stretcher bearers picked him up
, In the second injury it was an Ameri-
can surgeon who dressed his wounds
and removed three splinters from his
brain. He attributes his recovery in
each injury to the care given to him
by the Red Cross. Consequently, his
appeal for the support of this noble
organization is a powerful one. He
left by the 500 Line Wednesday morn
ing for Darlington to render similar
assistance there.
