and commerce, and representative
of the supreme economic council in
London, it was said today by off.

The presence OF an unofficial A.

Should Great Britain and Other

was said, will effectually block any
sale of rolling stock to foreign
governments for resale to Russia.

MAY Be REPEALED.
ADOPTS RESOLUTION
BY DECIDED voTE-THREE
IN OPPOSITION LEVER
FOOD CONTROL ACT AND
TRADING WITH ENEMY LAW
RETAINED

Washington, June 3.-All war
laws, except the Lever food control
act and the trading with the enemy
act, would be repealed by a resolu-.
tion adopted today by the house,
32a to 8. The only negative votes
were cast by Representative Gar
rett and Sims of Tennessee and
yelling Of Utah, all Democrats.
Approximately go laws, most Of
them confering broad discretionary.
authority on the president, as long
as the technical state Of war con-
tinues, would be removed from the
statute books by the resolution.
With the house action, the repeal
resolution was sent to the senate,
where action on it is expected be-
fore the adjournment Of congress
Saturday. House Democrats pre-
dicted that President Wilson would
approve the measure, Represents
tive Connally Of Texas asserting
that the president was the first to
suggest the notifications Of war
avis. The Texas member. added that
the Democrats were ready to over
ride the veto if necessary.
The retention of the Lever act
was explained by Representative
Walsh, Republican, in charge Of the,
repeal act, as necessary to give the
government an effective law Nor
curbling profiteering in necessi-
ties, including food and fuel. He
added that the trading with, the
enemy act should be continued to
regulate trade with Germany.
Representative Igoe, Democrat,
Missouri, however, questioned the
Republican decision to continue the
Lever act, asserting that Certain
interests" desired to keep the law
in effect because it had proved
effective anti-strike legislation"
He. vainly sought to have the act
included among those repealed,
but was defeated through parlia-
metary tactics.
The senate Judiciary committee
tonight took up consideration Of
the repeal resolution, but adjourn-
ed until tomorrow without final ac-
ton being taken. Several members
of the committee at the meeting
tonight, it was understood, were in
clined to oppose such legislation at
this time, but Senator Reed, Demo.
crat, Missouri, who recently intro
duced two similar measures in the
senate with Senators. Brandegree
and Sterling, Republicans were said
! to have indicated their approval Of
the resolution.

August 2 had failed.

Senator Underwood's-> announce
ment was made when the resolution

journed now the President would
later call an extra session. In order

has authorized me to state that if
congress adjourns when it con-
cludes it's business and disposes Of
the necessary appropriations 1 can
say to congress that he will not
call them back in extra session un-
less a grave emergency arises"
An effort by Senator Kenyon,
