Vigorously Denounced in Senate

, tor johnson of California said he was
"astonished' at it's breadth and that IL
could be used to curb freedom of the
press and free speech. He said 1t was
the fashion to impute disloyalty TO men
who did not agree with every doctrine
presented.
This bill is not to punish disloyalty,"
he said vehemently, but to suppress
the freedom of the press and prevent
one from presenting legitimate criticism
of the present government or admins
ira ton in the prosecution Of the war
Not only would it suppress the press
and make it subseryient to those in pow
or today, but it would even prevent you
from thinking as YOU wish to think"
Senator Johnson declared the bill
would prohibit a man from criticizing
anything or anybody in the administra-
ton.
George Creel chairman of the COM
mittee on public information, was de-
nounced as a ''slivering sneerer' and
chara cterized as the chosen spokesman

written by Creel in Denver some years
ago, in which he vigorously denounced
the President the supreme court and
the Senate. were read by the Indiana
senator. who asked whether the pend
ing measure would apply to such ar
ticles.
Ought this man be permitted to hol 4
that rosition"' asked Senator Watson.
shouldn't the Senate ask Tor his re-
moval?'
He quoted Creel AS saying in one edi-
toral that the United States Senate
was "a body that sits in despotism' and
the superior court is not responsible
TO the people
Another which the Indiana senator
declared was signed by Creel and which
referred TO America as "a nation Of

Que to the run down condition of the
nerves that rest does not bring re-
newed strength and sleep refresh the
tired brain. Overwork and worry are
the most frequent causes of this con-
dition.
The blood can be built up so that it
will increase the supply of needed ele-
ments to the wasted nerves and this
is the only way that the nerves can
be reached. DIR. Williams Pink Pills
are B. tonic that especially builds up
the nerves because they supply to the
blood the elements that the nerves
need. Many nervous disorders, some
times chronic ones, have yielded to
this tonic treatment with DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills when other methods
failed to give relief. They are GER
tainly worth a trial.
Two Health Books Free
More disturbances to health are
caused by thin blood than you have
any idea of. When the blood is i'm
poverished the nerves suffer from
lack of nourishment and YOU may
have insomnia, neuritis. neuralgia or
sciatica. Muscles subject to strain
are under-nourished and You may
have muscular rheumatism or lum-
bago. If your blood is thin and you
begin to show symptoms of these
disorders try building up the blood
with DR.. Williams Pink Pills and see
if the symptoms do not disappear as
the blood is restored to normal.

established soon by the Ship Board.
1t will be located in some southern
City where frost will not handicap the

making disloyal utterances were de-
nounced in the Senate today. when
an effort was made to rush through
"a House bill providing penalties of
20 years Imprisonment and $4,000
fine for interference with government
bond sales. acts tending to interfere
with army draft and disloyal Ian
guage.
We've got to do something to
catch these scoundrels and spies all
of the country" said Senator Over
man of North Carolina People are
taking the law into their own hands
on the ground that Congress is not
passing necessary laws. We hear re
ports of mobs everywhere"
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts
declared the bill would not catch a
single spy" asserting that spies did
not work publicly or openly make dis
loyal utteranceS.
German propa ganda had been
VIGOROUSLY conducted" and the bilrs
purpose was to broaden the espion-
age Senator Walsh of Montana said.
He said some federal courts had made
strained constructions" of existing
law and discharged persons who had
denounced the President and the ma

bond subscriptions.

citizens legal rights. including his
right to criticize the President.
Senator Lodge asserted that the
measure was pretty broad" and il
might be abused. while Senator Knox
of Pennsylvania objected to its
