WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-A storm of
anti British criticism broke forth in
the Senate this afternoon when
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts
brought to the attention Of that body
his resolution calling upon the State
Department to report what steps. if
any. it has taken against the British
embargo on imports.
Although Senator Weeks admitted
the embargo was not directed against
American goods any more than those
Of any other nation, and was designed
merely to aid in reconstruction OF
PTitish industries. Anglophobes among
the Democrats seized upon the oppor
tunity to launch savage attack on
the British government.
In the midst of the demand for re-
taliatory measures Senator Knox. Of
Pennsylvania, informed the Democrats
that in the repeal of the Panama tolls
act the Wilson Admini istration had sur
rendered its only weapon of effective
retaliation. Thereupon there was q
general outcry among the Democrats
who had opposed the tolls repeal bill.

Senator James Hamilton Lewis, Of

To immigration Bill
Netc Yorio Tribune
IEnaLiunLna, Da.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The Bur
nett bill, cutting off immigration for
four years. has been blocked Temporal
rily by the House Rules Committee
After long hearing to-day the com
mlttee is virtually unit against grant
ing special rule to permit the House
to consider this measure until after
all the appropriations bills have passed
the House.
At to-day's hearing Chairman Bur
nett, of the immigration committee
and Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor APP
resentatve SABBATH of Illinois, one of
the signers of the minority report
against the Burnett bill, opposed it.
Chairman Burnett said that follow
ing a conference with Senator Hard
wick, chairman of the Senate Immigra-
tion Committee, he was satisfied the
Senate would give the immigration bill
prompt consideration if it was expe-
dited by the House. Senator Hardwick
had informed Chairman Burnett, it was
stated, that there was a strong senti-
ment in the Senate favorable to the
immigration legis lation
Secretary Morrison said if unem-
ploymcnt in this country continued at
its present rate returning soldiers
would be required to preserve order
in our cities and towns. "The man
who breaches Bolshevism," sand Mr..
Morrison, dis not the man who creates
Bolshevism The employer of labor
who refuses to enter into collective
bargaining with his e.-pioyes doe,
more to create Bolshevism and the
l. W. w than any other element. The
|. w. W. is the direct product of the
employer who refuses to permit the
employe to organize"

chairman Of the Committee on Priv
ileges and Elections, had come pre-
pared TO press during the morning
hour" calling for recount Of the
ballots cast in the election of Truman
H. Newberry. who defeated Henry Ford,
the Democratic candidate for Senator
from Michigan. The flbuster was
successful in that the morning hour eN-
pired before the Pomerene resolution
could be taken up.
Spirit of Antagonism Denied
In bringing up his resolution, Sem
ator Weeks had the clerk read into
the record the list Of American articles
which would be affected by the British
embargo.
"No spirit of antagonism to Great
Britain" he said "prompts ne to make
this inquiry. 1t is only Intended to
show how our foreign trade may be
affected The time is coming when we
must do something to protect our own
commercial interests. | do not charge

Eve have heard a great deal of talk
about the brotherhood of man. he said.
at is time we began to take a sane
view of life, and this resolution will
serve useful purpose in giving us that
jolt which is sometimes necessary to
awaken an individual from sound
slumber and to disturb the gentle
course of pleasant dreams.
Loyalty Issue Raised
Il do not hesitate now to start to raise
the question of loyalty against any or
ganization that is not governmental,
that sits down in the United States
as an American organization and then
conspires with LOT Of Germans, with
lot of Swedes, with lot of Hungar
ians, and with lot of Englishmen to
work out a policy that will affect the
policy of our government. very
much doubt the loyalty Of that course
Of conduct. 1t might lead to any ex-
trcme, to any abuse. and it might lead
to a world wide conspiracy to under
mine the very foundations Of the
American republic.'

Difference in Plans Defined

Senator Smith you contemplate
during the hve-year period putting in
to operation any of the features of the
plan you have outlined as permanent
solution?
Mr.. Hines-No; the plan propose is
radically different from the plan we
are now using under the Federal con-
troll act Now the roads areN operated
by the government as one system; un-
der my plan they would be operated
under private management and consol-
idated into a limited number of regional
companies.
Senator Smith-so continuation OF
Federal control under the present law
would not demonstrate anything as to
your permanent solution
Mr.. lIines-That is true, but contin-
uation under the present law would
give the public fairer opportunity
to judge as between Federal operation
and private operation.
Assuming that Congress by next
summer would make up the balance OF
compensation still owing the roads by
the government, Mr.. Hines said, an
swcrng Senator Underwood, the credit
Of the roads, if turned back to their
owners then, would be as it was when
the properties were taken over by the
government.

A total of 2,212,431 Christmas
parcels were forwarded to the
American Expeditionary Forces over
seas, which makes it practically GER
tain that every fighting man, nurse
and Red Cross worker received hol-
iday reminders from relatives and
friends in the United States. The
parcels, which were collected by the
American Red Cross, were going
overseas for fully a month, the final
consignment leaving here on Dec.
10-a date early enough to insure
their distribution in time for the eel
ebration. The War Department was
responsible for the delivery of the
parcels on the other side, and to
facilitate distribution had them
sorted out at the Hoboken terminal
and shipped by company units.
About $4,000 sacks were required to
carry the good cheer.
