PEACE RESOLUTION
PASSES IN HOUSE
Washington, May 22.?The republican
peace resolution wasj(
adopted finally today by the house, j
It now goes to the president.
Thp house majority accepted the
senate substitute for the original |
house resolution, democrats vainly |
opposing it.
The house vote approving the
resolution was announced as 228
to 139, which was taken to indicate
that a veto by the president could
not be overridden.
Twenty democrats joined with j
the republicans in adopting the resolution,
while two republicans, Representatives
Kelly, Michigan, and
Fuller, Massachusetts voten asam=i.
it.
Representative Flood, Virginia, j
opening the democratic fight j
against the resolution, complained
that the republicans were seeking
to "jam thru" the measure and
asked for an additional hour of debate.
Chairman Porter however, refused
to grant longer discussion.
Representative Porter said passage
*of the resolution would "re- j
quire the president to state wheth-;
er or not he intended to relinquish'
the extraordinary powers vested in.

wartime presidents have done after |
the termination of war, or if he in- j

declared that President Wilson by
his letters to Oregon democrats and
to Senator Hicthcock, had shown 'a
