ENGINE DISABLED R-34 PROCEEDING
 AT GOOD SPEED
By Associated Pssss

London, July H.-The air ministry has received report from Ponta Dell gada, Azores:
 "The R-34 at ss1O p. m-, Greenwich mean time, t4:l0 p. m-) (New York time) is 4y0OO feet above the clouds and despite disabled engine, Is going strong. We are just about to descend to look at the sen. All we'll"
 The above report indicates that the R-34 has covered approximately 1900 miles of her journey to Scotland. Since the last report giving the location of the RIA, the speed of the dirigible has slackened to about 43 miles an hour, due proba ably to the broken down engine. The airships course as given in the 2:30 o'clock Greenwich time re- port, is about 25 miles north of that given in the previous message.

trading between that country and the United States as we'll as the other associated powers will begin.
 Acting Secretary of State Polk an- nounced today that blanket licenses would be issued for transactions of American firms and that details would be given within 4s hours after decision by legal experts as to whether a formal proclamation by the President would be necessary,
 Trading in all commodities, except dye stuffs, chemicals and potash, control over which will be exercised by the rep arations commission set up by the peace treaty will be unrestricted, it was said. American firms doing business with Ger many must send their agents into that country without passports, however, as these cannot be issued until the pro- clamation of peace. It was also said at certainty when American consuls would
 
 Payment for the goods which this country sends to Germany must be made under a system of credits to be arranged later through private capital, officials said Details as to this system have not been worked out. While Germany has large quantities of goods ready to be exported. officials doubted that there would be any great demand for them in this country and consequently the trade balance in favor of the United States is expected to be large
 Germany was said to be in immediate and pressing need of raw materials of almost all kinds, particularly cotton and copper. In order to rehabilitate her in- dustries large amounts of food have been sent into that country under direction of the inter-allied relief comm ission, but it is believed that the demand for grain and other cereals will be great. Clothing of all kinds also is needed.
 Acting Secretary Polk pointed out that the trading with the enemy act was not abrogated and that the action of the go*ernment was not to be construed as meaning that the state of war had ceas- ed to exist. The war will be at an end only with the ratification of the peace treaty. it was said, and the trading with the enemy act will remain in force until it is repealed by presidential. proclama- ton after the war ends.

EARLY GOLF ROUND

President Wilson began the day with an early morning round of golf with Mrs Wilson at country club course near the capital. Returning to the White House he spent more than an hour at his desx and then made an unexpected visit to the State, War and Navy buildings, across the street frora the White House, to con- fer with acting Secretary Polk at the State Department and Secretary of the Navy Daniels. He did not communicate his plans to anyone in the executive of fices and was half way across the street before the secret service operatives caught up with him.
 The President remained in Mir Polk s office for more than an hour. He had with him a package of official papers, and while no announcement was made, it was said that the Mexican situation and peace conference affairs were among those the President had desired to dis cuss. MT. Polk will leave for Paris July 21 to release Secretary Lansing as the head of the American peace delegation MT. Lansing will arrive in New York July 19 and will confer with MT. Polk before the under-secretary starts over seas.
 Leaving Mir. Folks office. the President called on Secretary Daniels and remained for half an hour, discussing various matters. After returning to the White House MT. Wilson resumed work there and was busy until late in the afternoon when he and Mrs. Wilson went for an automobile ride.
 No engagements were made for the President during the day, but he was represented as holding himself in readi- ness for conferences with members of the Senate foreign relations committee and other senators who might desire to dis cuss the peace treaty.

MIGHT DELAY RATIFICATION

MIUHl DELAY RATIFICATION Should the Presidents supporters fail to prevent the resolution from being so amended, and then refuse as body to support it in amended form, it was said the result might be to hold up ratifica- tion and bring pressure to bear for elim- nation of the reservations.
 It developed today that in his conver- sations with senators yesterday at the capitol, MT Wilson went into great de- tail regarding the Shantung agreement. He was quoted as saying that the under standing that Shantung would be re- turned to China after a reconstruction period was of a very definite nature, and that the only gain to Japan would be such benefit as she might derive from temporary use of the German railroads and other German property in the terri tory.
 There has been much speculation as to when the President intends to talk over the question with the leading league sup porters in the Senate. Surprise was ap- parent in many quarters that Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, who as senior democrat Of the foreign relations com mittee, has been one of the chief ad- vocates of the league. mad gone to his

LIQUOR TRAFFIC AGAIN SUBJECT
 OF HOT DEBATE
Speech Making to Continue Today and House Will Begin Real Work on
 Bill Monday
sy Associated Press


 Washin gton, July I1--ln the course of a fiye-hour debate in the House today on the prohibition bill the liquor traffic was likened to a convicted criminal, appealing for repries 6, svbiic sons Of the more drastic nrovi- sfons of the measure were denounced as an invasion of tie liberty, hospital ity and habits of the home.
 It probably was the last great day of prohibition oratory in the House. Not all of the F hours set aside for general debate had been used at the close of an all-day discussion, which ranged from technical argument on constitutional questions to a straight stump speech for prohibition and it's enforcement
 Chairman volstead of the judiciary committee. in charge of the bill. and Representative Igoe, democrat, of Mis- sotlri, leader of the minority, were un- able to allot all of the time desired by members anxious to be heard. There were more demands than there was time to give, with everybody wanting a word Time and again there was the drening call-'4the gentleman asks per mission to extend and revise his re- marks
 The speech making will continue to- morrow, but the House will not begin actual work on the bill, section by sec- tion. until Monday.
 Again today ardent prohibitionists declared they could not support the enforcement bill because of it's provi- sions, and others contended that once Congress defines intoxicating liquors as beverage containing one-half Of 1 per cent alcohol the federal law for such enforcement cannot become ef fective without concurrent action by the several states

LEADERS ARE PR|MED FOR
 COMING BATTLE
 FOR RATIFICATION
Further Progress Made by Senators on Both Sides Toward Solidifying the
 Forces for Long Fight
 Starting Monday
By Associated Pres.

Washington, July 11.-Sen- ate leaders in the league of na- tions controversy continued their conferences today in preparation for the ratification fight which will begin when the Senate reconvenes next Mon day. While 1t was said the ex- act lines of division might not be drawn for some days, fur ther progress in solidifyiny their forces was elaine both sides.
 President Wilson, having delivered the treaty to the Senate and offered to sup plement it with all the information in his possession, apparently put the matter temporarily out of his mind. He saw none of the senators who have been ac- tive in the fight and while he conferred with Acting Secretary Polk at the state
 
 iects furnished the basis of their dis cussion. Whether the Presidents offer is to be accepted by the foreign relations committee remained an open question. Some of the opposition leaders are known to oppose inviting him before the com- mittee, but his supporters believe they can secure his appearance should he re- quest that they do SC. There were in- creasing indications today that should he be questioned. the sessions will be open to the public.
 There was continued discussion during the day of Mir Wilson's reported declar- ation that a two-thirds vote would be necessary to make any reservations in ratifying the treaty The opposition leaders have proceeded in the belief that only a majority would be necessary. and they declare their position Is amply for tified by Senate rules
 In some quarters it was suggested that the Presidents declaration might mean new turn in the reservation fight It was asserted he may have meant that after majority has written reservations in the ratification resolution, two-thirds must then support the amended resolu- ton to secure ratification

DRYS AGAINST BILL


 The principal dry" arguments against the measure today were made by. Representative Moon, democrat, of Tenn essee, who declared that unless 1t was materially amended he would feel in duty bound to vote against it or else express his disapproval by not voting at all.
 For 22 years, Mir Moon said, he had stood upon the floor of the House and upheld the cause of prohibition. The enforcement bill. which he character ized as ''impracticable and senseless es anything every suggested" should be opposed, because it is worse in all it's features than the infamous force bill" He asserted Congress was going be- yond it's constitutional powers in at tempting to say man should not put liquor in his home, and in attempting to define intoxicating liquors by limit ing the alcoholic content to one-half sof per cent.
 It was apparent tonight that prohi- bition leaders were somewhat discoa- certed by persistent attacks on the en- forcement bill by members of :ho House regarded heretofore as certain to support it. They still claimed, how ever. to have votes enough to put it through substantially as drafted. al though they said radical changes un- doubtedly would be made by the Sem ate.
 The drive by the "wets" apparently had broken up all attempts. threaten ed several days ago, to make the bill more drastic than in it's present form.
 Charges were reiterated during the discussion today that the measure was largely drawn by the general counsel for the anti-saloon league and that anti-liauor organizations had given warning that no man need hope to be- come nominee for President next year

 The President still had before him the agricultural bill with it's rideS for repea. of the daylight saving law and the huge sundry civil measure with appropria- lions for the shipping board and the cam paign against bomb throwers and other radicals. Many petitions both for ana against repeal of the daylight law were before him and he was represented as giving this matter much thought
 All of the appropriation measures signed by the President became law inn mediately with the appropria lions retro active to July 1, but the wire resolution does not become effective until the end Of the month, when the properties will be returned to their owners. Under the resolution, intrastate telephone rates es- tabiished under government control will remain effective for four months unless sooner modified by state rate making bodies,

ENTIRELY TOO DRASTIC

-
 Representative Gard of Ohio, demo- cratic member of the judiciary, cont mittee, in opposing the bill. said it was so drastic that the people would rise up in wrath against it's enforcement, but 1t was not half so drastic, he added. 'as it had been when submitted to the committee by counsel for the anti-saloon league and the paten; medicine interests"
 Many changes still are necessary. he asserted.
 Chairman Volstead interrupted Mr. Gard to say that he had been in con- ference today with counsel "of parties interested" in an effort to reach an agreement on some of the objectional provisions.
