Is Victory For President.
 Measure Goes To
 House.

Washington, April 29.-Rejecting all amendments designed to limit the presidents authority, the senate late today passed the Overman bill, with it's general grant of power for co-or- dinating and recognizing govern ment departments and other agencies during the war.
 An amendment by Senator Cum mins to prevent the president from interfering with jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce Commission over rates and valuations of rail roads, was defeated, 43 to 31.
 A vote on final passage of the measure, which now goes to the house was 63 to13, and was regarded as a complete success for the administra- tion
 voting tc pass the bill, had before the final roll call. supported amendments to circumscribe the presidents power generally to war functions.
 Those who have continued their op position to the finish have based theil attitude on the argument that the bill confers unnecessary autocratlc pow CTS upon the president and is uncon- stitutional.
 Administration leaders championee the measure consistently and woule not apree to any amendment limiting the presidents authority. The only amendment added in the senate was accepted by Senator Overman, ir charge of the bill.

Associated Press Snnmary.)

Germany's armies are hurlng thenl- selves against a granite wall on three sides of the ruined city of Ypres.
 After fighting of the most terrific nature tAe British and French lines are still intact an the enemy has 1oat terribly in his repeated assaults against the line where the allies stand at bay.
 The objective of the fighting that, now is going on is the capture of Ypres, where since 19l4, the British have held their positions. The present., battle opened with a bombardment of the British and French lines from Meterin to Zoormezele a distance of 12 miles. Then came reports of a spread of the fighting around the cur ve in the line in front of Ypres. until the Belgian armies north C. the city were involved.
 German Efforts Futile.
 'ield MarshaPs LIaig official re- MOTE. anNiausly awaited, brought Stae news that the utmost efforts of the Germans had been fruitles5 all along the line. The Field Marshsl's state. ment said that the Teutons have paid great price and gained virtually nothing.
 The battle still continues but there is little indication that an immediate withdrawal from Ypres is contem- plated by the allies, at least not until they have exacted from the enemy great sacrifice of life. The only point at which the Ger mans have made any gain was on the hiIly section of the front back of Kemmel Hill. where the French are standing. At some points the enemy was able to occupy portions of the line, but from tht greater part of these they were driven out by the French who stablished their de- lenses.
 Frontal attacks on Ypres would seem to indicate that there is little confidence in the German general staff that the Ypres position can be outflanked from the scuth. 1 On 1914 Battle Line.
 The line s today as they stand are very strong and withstood the on- slaughts of tn eGermans in l?l4, when the Teuton emperOr's army was a much different machine than it is to- :, day.
 1 The bloody repulse of the Germans 1 in their great lunge forward will mean much in further operations in that sector of the battle line. While the struggle was going on be-
 fore Ypres. the British position from i I.ebasso to Houtholst wood and from
 Lens to Vimy were delueed with
 shells but so far there has been no
 infantry fighting reported from that part of the front

 there has been little fighting of note. Further south there have been only

Conquest and kultur

I'VE are Individually the most martial nation
in the world. For two centuries German vlgor
upheld the decadent Roman Empire. Only Ger
mans were able to combat the primitive might OF
Germans. In seven battles of the nations, in the
forest of Teutoburg, in the Catalonian plains, at
Tours, ard at Poitiers on the Lechfeld near LEG
nitz, before Vienna against the Turks, and at
Waterloo we saved the civilization (Gesittung)
of Europe.
I'VE are the most gifted of nations in all the
domains of science and art. We are the best
colonists, the best Sailors and even the best
traders! And yet we have not up to now secured
our due share in the heritage of the world, be-
cause we will not learn to draw salutary lessons
from history That the German Empire
is not the end but the beginning Of our national
development is an obvious truth which as yet is
by no means the common property of Germans.
It is recognized only by few cultivated men,"
