Senate Rejects
 Proposed Limit Neutrality Bill

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 (P) - The Senate rejected the amend ment designed to limit the Presi- dents descretion in invoking the administrations proposed neu- trality legislation. The proposal introduced by Senator Johnson, to strike on the discretionary Ian guage of the measure was defeat ed by a vote of 61 to 26. In effect Johnson asked, once the Presi- dent found that a state of war existed he would have to pro- claim the invocation a law. As the bill now stands the invoca- ton of the law is merely author ized.
 Senator Lafollette proposed the bill be amended to require na- tional advisory election to be held before Congress could de- clare an overseas war.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23 tP) - The Maritime Commission re- ceived a report that the Ameri- can steamship the City of Flint 4,963 tons owned by the Com mission and leased to the United States Lines had been seized by a German raider somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean and taken to Tromso, Norway, then sailed again with a German crew and flying a German flag.
 Tass, the Soviet News Agency reported in Moscow that a vessel similarly manned and marked ar rived at Kola Bay near Mur- nnansk, Russia. The Russians said the vessel had cargo of leather, wax, tractors, fruit and grains destined for England.
