Sidy bill went serenely on its
way in the Senate yesterday
to the exclusion of all other
business.
Senator Jones of Washington
concluded his speech in support of
the bill and was followed by Sena-
tor Fletcher, leader of the Demo-
cratic opposition, who spoke for an
hour against it. 1t is planned to
give Senator La Toilette most Of

FARM BLOC SPLIT.
The situation created by the
farm bloc with its presentation of
the list of fifty Senators who de-
sire rural credits legislation to have

bill is not likely to have any serious
effect upon the consideration Of the
latter measure. The truth is that

TO permit the credits bill to be
passed. but the advocates Of the
farm measure are completely at sea
as to what kind Of rural credits
bill they want. Until they agree,
the subsidy measure will be kept
before the Senate.

leader, made it plain yesterday that
administration Senators will not op.
pose motion to set aside the sub

The situation must be met

be laid aside for such a bill at the

JONES ENDS SPEECH.
Senator Jones. in closing his ar.
gument for the bill. made the direct
charge that British shipping in

sidy in order to prevent any devel-
opment of an American merchant
marine. He said:
The British shipping interests
have built up a merchant marine
that goes to every quarter Of the
globe. Her ships and her COM
merce are everywhere. They
have their business relations in
every part of the world: their
agents are here and everywhere.
