The House will insist on an amend
ment TO the Knox resolution as passed
two weeks ago by the Senate, Repub-
lican Leader Mondell stated to-day
This amendment, he said, would be
to eliminate the provision repeating
the declaration of war In his opinion
the House and the Foreign Affairs
Committee are strongly I'm favor of
declaring only that a state of peace
exists. Although the effect of both
resolutions would be virtually the
same. it is apparent that opposition
TO the war repeater has become strong
in the House. The Democrats and
probably a majority of the Repub-
leans are unitedly against 1t.
Mr. Mondell reiterated that the peace
resolution would not be abandoned. as
some Democrats now charge. 1t will be
passed, he said, at the opportune time.
but there is no evidence OF a desire Of
House leaders TO rush the resolution to
final passage. In explaining their stand
they give every indication that unusual
haste is not desired by the Administra-
tlou.
Chairman Porter tPa) ~ the House
Foreign Affairs Committee. said he has
made no plans to take the resolution
before the committee. He viii confer
next week with representatives OF ship

crimlnated against foreign ships. but
these practices are prevented by the
treaty. Ship owners desire to make
sure they would not he subject TO dls-
elimination In case the United States
does not sign the treaty
In a statement Mr.. MondelI said
1T is possible but not entirely prob
able that the peace resolution may be
before the House by the end of next
week. The German acceptance has
cleared the situation To- "A great extent
other things. as we all know. are stu
in the way but ! believe we can expect
these to clear up rapidly What We
desire is that II be taken up at the most
opportune time.

800 BIRDS KILLED
BY STRIKING TOWER
Clerks in Metropolitan Life
Building Find Some Song
sters in Corridors.
SURVIVORS REST IN PARK
Lose Way in Fog and Rain
While Finishing Last Lap Of
Migration From South.

Some time during Friday night a
great flock of singing birds. journey
ing up from the South. lost their way
In the fog and rain and crashed into
the Metropolitan tower. Passersby
early yesterday found 300 of them
dead on the pavements of Twenty
third street and Madison avenue and
in Madison Square Park. All yester-
day afternoon the survivors, several
hundred in number. and of many
varieties. rested in the park and
searched for food.
Observers who have been watching
bird migrations through the city for
many years said that they could not re-
member a similar occurrence. There are
believed to have been 1000 birds In the
flock, including more than twenty va
rieties. Ordinary migratory units sell
dom contain more than two or three
hundred birds. This one was large be-
cause the migration this spring has been
SLOW, due to the many rains and inter-
mittent cold.
Clerks who came to work in the offices
of the Metropolitan Life Building were
surprised to find Maryland yellow
throats and black throated blue warblers
fsNtering through the corridors. A
postman in the Madison Square branch
station found yellow throat perched
before the stamp window and took the
bird out TO the park, where he set 1t
free.
In the afternoon. when the sun came
out. bench warmers in the park listened
to the tuning up of catblrds, house
wrens. myrtle warblers and white
throated sparrows
Some OF the birds are thought TO have
America the rest from the Southern
States They were very near the end Of
their journey. as most of the varieties
are those found close to New York
Many will probably build their nests in
Bronx Park
The birds found worms and bugs In
the park yesterday. and several bird
lovers brought bread crumbs and scat
tered them.
Besides the varieties mentioned, the
birds included towhees, ovenbirds.

thrashers. swamp sparrows. field spar
