HOUSE ADOPTS
PEACE RESOLUTION
RESOLUTION DECLARES STATE
OF WAR WITH GERMANY
AT AN END.
MOTION GOES TO SENATE
House Engages in IL Hours of Bitter
Debate Under Rigid Rules-ls Car
ried PAP to 100 With Aid of
p Democrats.

Washington. The Republican
joint resolution declaring the state of
war with Germany at an end and re-
pealing most of the wartime legisla-
ton was adopted by the House 1t
now goes to the Senate.
The vote on the passage of the res
Olution was 242 to $50; absent two.
Twenty-Five Democrats joined with
the Republican majority in supporting
the resolution, and two Republicans
voted against its adoption.
Democrats voting for the resolu-
ton were: Ashbrook, Caldwell, Dool-
ing, Cullen, Gallivan, Gormley, Gold
fogle, Huddleston, McKiniry, McLane,
Mahr, O'Connell, O'Connor, Pell,
Hammill. Olney, Sherwood, Sullivan,
Tague, Carew, Evans, (Nevada)
Meade
Republicans opposing it were: Full
Ter (Mass.) and Kelly (Mioh.)
Before adopting the resolution the
House voted down motion by Repre-
sentative Flood of Virginia, the rank
ing Democrat of the Foreign Affairs
Committee. TO send the resolution
back to that committee with instruc-
tons to report out a substitute repeal
ing all wartime acts.
The vote on that motion was III
for and 222 against.
On the Democratic substitute cffer-
ed as a motion to recommit the only
vote other than that on adoption of
thethe resolution permitted under the
rule, three Democrats lined up with
the Republicans, while two Republi-
cans joined the minority. The greater
break in the Democratic ranks came
on the final vote.
Chairman Porter of the Foreign AZ
fairs Committee said after the roll
call that 20 votes would carry the
resolution over a presidential veto.
Democratic members, however, said a
vote on that question would see par
ty alignment virtually intact.
The vote ended a two-day battle of
words in the House. The rule was
rigid, preventing all attempts at
amendment of the resolution put for
ward by Republicans on direct offers
of substitutes. Only the recommit-
ment motion was acceptable, and
there was no preliminary presenta-
ton of the Democratic proposal.
