securing an extension of the time
limit until June for the delivery of
agricultural machinery to the En-
tente Allies, says a German govern
ment wireless message. the German
armistice commission In its pour
parlers with the Entente represen-
tatives at Treves last week for a
renewal of the armistice, obtained
other concessions: These included
the stipulation that the quantity of

EXPECT SENATE
WILL PASS FOOD
BLLLLATE TODAY
PenroSe Attacks Hoover Dur
ing Debate on the
Measure
BY associated Press

Washington, Jan. 21.-Although
debate on tho administration Dill
appropriating $10O.000,000 for food
relief in Europe and in the near
East, prevented q final vote on the
measure in the Senate yesterday,
passage of the bill is conceded. DEM
ocratic leaders are hopeful that pas
sage of the measure would be ac-
complished before adjournment to-
day.
Attack on the bill and the ad-
ministration of the relief fund by
Herbert c. Hoover was led bp SEN
ators Penrose, Pennsylvania, and
Sherman. of Illinois, both Repub-
licans. while Senators Martin, of
Virginia, the Democratic leader,
Lewis, of Illinois, the Democadc
whip, were the principal speakers
in support of it.
Penrose Attacks Hoover
Senator Penrose said Mr.. Hoover
"had insulted every Republican
citizen" by advising the American
people to support the Democratic
party in the last congressional cam
paign and that he would offer an
amendment to the bill requiring that
the fund be administered by a COM
mission named by the President
with the advice and consent of the
Senate"
The Pennsylvania Senator offered
an amendment requiring that the re-
lief fund be used to purchase sup
plies in the United States. Senator
Martin criticised this proposal "as
a profiteering stipulation on a chart
table fund" and Mr.. Penrose finally
modified it to read that wheat to be
given free to the people of Europe
should be purchased in this country
as far as possible. The amendment
then was adopted.
Another amendment offered by
Senator Ashurst, of Arizona, Demo-
crat, would give every soldier, sail
or and marine n bonus of six months
pay and his uniform upon discharge,
but its consideration was deferred.
Senator I.ewis urged passage of
the bill as necessary to sustain
President Wilson in his work at the
Peace Conference.

economically independent of the world
as possible was advocated by Secre-
tary Redheld here tonight in an ad-

THE United States never can reach

come far more independent than we
are.
"Public opinion" he said, mot only
should support, but urge the govern
ment to make and carry out a definite
policy, with the requisite funds fol
carrying it out, under which the ma
tional domain, whether in the United
States, Alaska, Hawaii or Porto Rico
should have its possible resources as
certained and steps taken to their de
velopment.
"This should include our transporta
ton systems. our cable facilities unde'

supplies Of oil, our timber reserves, ou-
coast, surveys, the resources of fitish
cries, the reclamation Of waste land
the checking of industrial waste, il
