COMPROMISE PROMISED ON BILL TO
EXTEND POWERS Of THE PRESIDENT

all sides except the group OF sena-
tors unalterably insisting upon the
military committees bills for war
cabinet and munitions director.
President Wilson was said to have
no objection to the changes pro
posed and it is expected that the
senate judiciary subcommittee, head
ed by Senator 0verman. will today
re-draft the bill.
As 1t is proposed to amend the
measure, the president would not be
given any new substantive authority
and provisions in the Ouerman bill
which Republicans have regarded as
comforting new and too broad pow.
ers upon the president are to be
eliminated, The amendments, how
ever, would retain the principal pro-
visions authorizing the president to
transfer departments, bureaus, COM
missions and other agencies and
their personnel as he might deem
necessary to effect greater co-ordina-
tion and efficiency In prosecuting
the war. 1t is proposed to strike out
clause giving the president power
TO employ by executive order any
additional agency or agencies and to
vest therein performance Of such
functions as he may deem appropri-
ate" thereby limiting the executives
authority to changes In existing
agencies and without power to create
any new ones.
Another compromise amendment
proposed would allow the president
to transfer appropriations made by
congress from one federal agency to
another, but only for use In connec-
tion with the purpose specifically au-
thorized by congress in making the
appropriation.
Senator Overman said that as the
bill is becoming better understood
opposition is waning, and confidently
predicted that, with the changes pro-
posed, the bill will be reported out
probably next week, and obtain
substantial majority in the senate.
When the measure was first sent
to the capitol, virtually as substi
tute for the war cabinet and muni-
tions ministry bills, there were gem
eral predictions that 1t would die in
the committee.

the serving, giving or delivering of
intoxieants to an officer or soldier
outside the zone, except that in
private homes liquors may be served
to officers or soldiers who are mem

ing the new regulations would be
