Washington, June 11.-After a
bitter partisan fight the house took
up today the Porter peace resolu-
ton terminating the state of war

substitute for the Knox measure
repeating the declaration of war.
Passage is certain, any lingering
doubt In the minds of the demo-

Porter proposal right of way in
place of the Knox resolution pass
ed by the senate. Two republicans

ocrats stood with republicans in
the fight to put it through,
Reports were current that more
than score of democrats would
vote for the resolution on the final

Democrats today criticised what
they characterized as the "throt-
Ting of the house" by forcing ac-

they said had been framed in
secret by republican members of
the foreign affairs committee and
would not permit of amendment,
Then turning sharply to the reso-
luton the democrats declared 1t
would meet the hearty approval of
"every German, every Stacker and
every American traitor"
Chairman Porter of the foreign
affairs committee, asserted the
house was not ready to go as far
as the senate and repeal the wal
declaration, for that. he said, might
be regarded as an actual repudia-
ton of the war.
Statements of opponents of the
resolution that by officially de-
claring the state Of war at an end
America was abandoning the al
lies or its fighting assistants were
denied by Chairman Porter as "a
gross misstatement of facts"
Mr. Porter insisted that since the
allies had made peace In 1919 II
there had been any abandonment
'it has been of the United States
by the allies"
