Would Acquire Ships
The ship bill which the Senate
considers today would permit
President Roosevelt to acquire SO
idle foreign vessels, including
those of German and Italian reg
istry, in American ports.
Sen. Charles w. Tobey, r., n.
H.. told the United Press he still
intends to offer an amendment to
it forbidding assignment Of the
Navy to convoy duty. Sens. Arthur
H. Vandenberg, r., Mich. and
Bennett c. Clark, D., Mo-. said
they would offer an amendment to
prevent transfer OF seized foreign
ships to belligerents.
There Is no discernible hope for.
the Tobey yAnti-Convoy Amend
ment. The bill Is sure to pass,
probably in the form desired by
Mr.. Roosevelt. But the convoy de-
bate first formal opportunity for
Congress TO pass on the question
may take several days.
The opening OF the Senate de-
bate followed what appeared here
to be material easing of the
whole convoy question. London re-
ported Tuesday that the battle
of the Atlantic was going more
favorably for the British than in
March.
This contrast between March
and April seemed to accord
tremendous degree Of success to
Mr.. Roosevelt's extended Atlantic
patrol which on its face is de-
vice to help the British protect
their munitions cargoes without
actually undertaking convoy job.
Favorable reurns from the pa
troll system apparently explain
Secretary of Navy Knox, state
ment here night before last that
some new defense other than
conveys may be the solution OF
the Atlantic problem.

Trolz about it, who investigated
the next day and merely presumed
some rubbish had ignited from

the boys by loud barking, and
scratching in the rubbish.
Sheriff Osborn said today that
he would continue the questioning
at Manchester and also in Detroit
where all friends and acquaintanc-

woman answering the general
description OF Miss Briggs are
Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Evilsizer

the Trolz,' who said they saw d
strange woman walking toward
the Troll farm about 4:S0 Of the
afternoon Miss Briggs disappear

dogs, the Evilsizers said, and they
talked to her, telling her the dogs
were friendly and would not harm
her. She then walked on along
the road, they said.
