WATSON FIGHTING
 WILSt;N WAR POWER
Indiana Senator Would Strip
 President Of Much Authority

WaShin on, May 6.--Ihe extraor- dinary powers granted to the president because of the war emergency arc DC ing analysed by Senator NaVSoh' ol Indiana. It is his intention to prepare a series of resolutions repeating Vlr- tually all of these authorlzatlol'S. ne resolutions will be offered soon a1ter congress reconvenes.
 It is the opinion of Senator watson that President Wilson has been vested by congress with more authority than any other constitutional ruler Tn the world and that some of his powers even exceed the authority exercised by absolute monarchS.
 In looking over various legislative nactments conferring authority on the president, the scope and extent of these statutes has astonished MT. Watson It has led him to believe there should be an early curtailm ent of these extra grants. In his judg- ment the emergencies brought for ward by the war have terminated and no necessity remains for the future exercise of unusual powers by the president.
 The first resolution will provide for tIle iSIuiI aS duiCkly dS pOSSlpl6 ui telegraph and telephone lines to thell ownership. Senator Watson was more disturbed by their transfer to the president than the exercise of almost any other authority by the federal government. Senator Watson vii take up all other extraordinary pow CTS, such as the right to commandeel property and facilities of all kinds, the sweeping authority given under the OVerman act, the espionage laws and similar statutes, the right to advance funds to foreign governments. the added power of appointments in the Army and Navy and numerous other improvements.
 The Indanian believes that the re- publicans will readily see the neces- slty for withdrawing the unusual pow CTS given to the president He does not anticipate any determined opposi- tion from tthc democrats.
