UNDERWOOD ASSAILS
ALLIED LOAN FUND BILL
Brandegee Also Doubts If
Pouers Are Needed.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The Admin
istration bill authorizing the Secretary
of the Treasury to fund the allied loans
was attacked In the Senate to-day by
Senator Underwood (Ala.), the Demo-
cratic leader.
80 far as know" said Senator
Underwood, this bill would confer the
broadest power and the widest field
of responsibility ever given to any off,
cial in the history of our Government"
Senator Underwood said that Secre-
tary Mellon, in asking broad powers,
possibly wanted to make the United
States the clearing house for European
obligations"
Senator Brandegee Comm, Repub-
lican. interrupted to remark that he
was not convinced that the broad pow
ers asked were needed. and Senator
Underwood declared he would oppose
granting such powers to any man.
Senator Williams (Miss.), Democrat,
declared he favored giving the Admin
fstration plenary power and holding 1t
responsible. He said he would greatly
prefer the bonds of some non-debtor
countries than those of the debtor
nations.

SENATE SUBCOMMITTEE
VOTES ANTI-BEER BILL
Only Minor Changes Made in
House Measure.

WASHINGTON. June 30.-Recommenda-
tion for favorable report on the Willis
Campbell anti-medical beer bill was
votel to-day by Senate Judiciary sub
committee after several minor changes
had been made In the measure as 1t
passed the House.
The changes would afford greater pro-
lection to manufacturers. dealers and
consumers of Industrial alcohol. but
would not affect the three main provi-
sions of the bill Two of these proyts
sions prohibit the prescription Of beer as
medicine and limit prescriptions issued
by physicians for vinous or spirituous
liquors to 100 days.
Chairman Stirling of the sub-commit-
tee said the bill would be submitted to
the full committee probably next Tues
day and be taken up In the Senate as
soon as possible after II was reported.
The changes recommended by the sub
committee IL retained will necssitate re-
turn Of the measure to the House after
the Senate vote.

NEW SHIP BOARD TO
SELL WOODEN VESSELS
Bids for Fleet Will Be Opened
on July 30.

WASHINGTON. June 30.-The new Ship
ing Board has decided finally to dispose
of the Government fleet of 2s7 wooden
ships. 1t was stated to-day at the Office
of Chairman Lasker. Bids on the ves-
sells. most of which are tied up in the
James River near Newport News. Va,
will be invited and opened on July 80.
Several unsuccessful efforts were
made by the old board to sell the wood
en- craft. Members of the present board
believe, however, that the ships can be
used by some foreign nations in their
coastwise trade. At any rate, the board
is expected TO dispose of them one way
or another, as II is held they cannot be
fitted into the homogeneous plan of the
American merchant marine and the cost
Of maintaining them in idleness is heavy.
