PARTISAN ATTACK In U. S.
SENATE STARTS WRANGLE
Stone AssaiIs Rooseveit-lodae and
Penrose Resent Charges Against
Republicans.

Washington, Jan. 22.-The Repub-
lican and Democratic leaders clashed
their steel points in the senate in the
first and fiercest debate Of the war.
Stone of Missouri precipitated the
conflict. He struck the first blow in
carefully prepared speech of great bit
terness and vigor assailing Roosevelt
as the idol and spokesman Of con-
spiracy 10 discredit the administration
and seize the government at the next
congressional election. He also ac-
cused many if not all' the Republican
senators with abetting the conspiracy
and singled out Senator Pehrose as Gn
example.
Senator Stone centered his attack
upon Colonel Roosevelt whom ne
called "my star witness.
"Of all men," he said. Roosevelt is
the most responsible for what he de-
nOunces. He does his work cunningly.
In the front of his propaganda he
throws a deceptive political camou-
iage. l charge that Theodore Roose-
yelt-whether willingly or out of sheer
madness, don't knows the most
potent agent the kaiser has in Amer
lea"
Senator Stone also assailed Senator
Boies Penrose of Pennsylvania and
Chairman William r. Wilcox of the
Republican national committee, whom
he accused of leading the Republican
assault upon the war administration.
Republican leaders in and out of
politics are undoubtedly seeking to
make politics out of the war. There
is to be an election next fall"
Senator Stone declared that the res
olutions calling for the numerous con-
gressional Investigations into the con-
duct of the war came almost exclusive
ly from the Republican side.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, de-
nounced Senator Stones speech as "dis-
tinctly POLITICAL He pointed out that
the Republicans Of the house and sem
ate had voted for all important war
measures, several Of which would have
failed without Republican support.
Senator Penrose took the floor and
declared that he was surprised that
Senator Stone had no greater indict-
ment against him.
Senator Stone vigorously de-
nounced the sending of Colonel House
to the Paris conference.
Penrose attacked the fuel admins

BAN ON OLIVE Oil EXPORTS
Royal Order Calls Halt on Shipments
Except Essentials, From Spain
to United States.

Olive oil experts from Spain, or
which large quantities formerly were
shipped both directly and via France
and Italy to the United States ana
other foreign markets, from Barcelona
and Seville, are prohibited by recent
royal order, states commerce reports.
In southern Spain and in the region
of Catalonia, the olive Oil industry mas
been an important source of revenue
to the growers who export to foreign
refineries, whence the oil was often
shipped to the United States, as OF
really non-Spanish production. he
Gently the direct exports OF the COM
modify from Spain to the United States
have increased considerably with the
development of the American taste Tor
the oil produced in Spain.
There is no embargo on exports OF
essential oils such as pennyroyai, rose
mary, sage, thyme and lavender, the
Spanish production of which Is large
ly destined for foreign markets, ana
shipment of which is made direct from
Spain to the United States, France,
and elsewhere. These oils are pro-
duced especially in the regions of Muir
cha and Malaga, where many medical
herbs are grown for domestic con-
sumption and export. AS compara-
lively little use is made in Spain OF
several oils derived from the plants
mentioned and other oil-producing
herbs, the local market is limited; but
the industry may be developed indeh-
nitely in view Of the favorable Gil
matte conditions of those sections OF
Spain where the plants flourish. In
1915 the declared exports OF essential
oils from Malaga to the United States
were valued at $176,164; those from
Almeria, at 1920; and those from
Barcelona, at $13,220.
