 automobile owners instead of the

 clared the present per cent on auto mobile sales was passed to the con- sumer with an added increase, while Representative Moore of Pennsyl- vania and other members remarked that the committee was seeking in creased revenues, not decreases and exemptions.

Washington, June 12--(spccini.o Expressing regret that illness and ex- cessiye work prevented him personally deciding the Warrior river transpor- tation case, Secretary McAdoo this aft ernoon. with the approval of Senator Bnnkhead, dale gated the duty to Judge c. A. Prouty, associate member of the interstate commerce commission. MT. McAdoo declared that he would act on the recomme enda tion Of the referee. who will review alI reports which have been rendered as to the merits and demerits of the Warrior project. and will be empowered to authorize ad- difi0nnI Investigations. He will also he empowered to appoint another mem- Der of the commission to sit with him.
 Senator Bankhead agreed to the plan of the secretary and later stated that he thought by action of the secretary considerable progress had been made. Judge Prouty, according to the sena- tor, is of an open mind and a judicial temperament.
 I. T feel confident that a step forWss. q has been taken" said the senator "A. any rate the transportation project in which we have been so deeply interested for several months has unwound itself from the tangle of an intricate webb of doubt and mystery and has come out in the open. River transportation in t3e hands of railroad officials is as chicken in a hawks nest. In the hands of Judge Prouty the case will be decided on its merits without the exertion of prejudice by men of preconceived ideas. .
 Senator Bankhead is of the opinion that Judge Prouty will get to work on the case at once, and that in addition to reviewing the briefs already filed will order a public hearing. This would necessitate the return to Washington of the delegation of Birmingham, Tusca- loosa and Mobile people which has al- ready repeatedly served the cause.

|OPEN DIPLOMACY | DOES NOT MEAN FOOLISH PUBLICITY President Forced to Explain
 Expression Used in Re cent Address BORAH'S PROPOSAL IS , DEFEATED IN SENATE BOlshevik Idea of Public Consideration of Treaties Will Not Obtain in
 America

Washington, June 12.-ExpIanation by President Wilson today that his caii for open diplomacy made in m address to Congress last June meant not public discussion of delicate matters hut "open. above-board and explicit" pulp licity of completed international re- Iations, was followed by defeat in the senate, 90 to 23, of Senator Borah's proposal for public consideration of treaties.
 Rejection of the Borah plan, advanced as an amendment to the new rule pro- posed by Senator Underwood Of Ala bama, to limit Senate debate during the war. paved the way for action tomorrow on the Underwood resolution. An agree ment was reached to vote at oclock tomorrow afternoon.
 President Wilson's own interpretation of his open diplomacy declaration was made known in memorandum to Secre- tary Lansing read to the Senate by Chairman Hitchcock. of the foreign rela- tions committee. The memorandum was written March 12, after introduction of
  lie as result of the argument in the Senate yesterday over what the Presi- dents words meant.
 PRESIDENTS NOTE
 It follows:
 1T wish you would bc kind enough to formulate carefu1 and conclusive memorandum for the use of the com mittee of the Senate with regard to tre enclosed resolution. take 1t TOT granted that you feel as I do that this is no time to act as the resolution pre- scrihes, and certainly when I pronouncei for open diplomacy, I meant not that there should be no private discussions of delicate matters, but that no secret agreements should be entered into and that all international relations, when fixed, should be open, above-board and explicit
 Senator Borah insisted that the Presi- dents statements in his address in favor of open negotiations were so plain as to be impossible of misconstruction. Nine- teen republicans and four democrats voted for adoption of the amendment, while II republicans joined 36 democrats in it's rejection.
 With the Borah amendment in the dis card, attack was renewed on the Under wood cloture rule, despite acceptance py Senator Underwood of double rule or fered by Senator Cummins, of Iowa, extending privileges of debate.
 Rejection 40 to 29, of an amendment by Senator Gallinger, of New Hampshire, to restrict cloture to the present year was regarded by the advocates of cloture as indication of final adoption of the modified rule.
