News of the president's decision
came as a distinct surpriso at the cap
ital, where loaders of both nouses
got it through reports of the letter
to Pou. There are some expressions
of dissatisfaction, particularly among
members of the house. Surprise is
expressed that the president should
appeal to the rules committee to have
brought out, debated and voted on the
proposals which have been kept in
the foreign committee solely because
it was believed the administration did
not want them discussed. Action in
both houses will probably be taken
tomorrow.
The president's letter said: "The
report that there are divided coun
sels in congress regarding the gov
ernment's foreign policy is being
mtde industrious use of in foreign
capitals. J believe the reports are
false, but so lonp as it. la nnvwtium
credited, it cannot fail to do the I
greatest harm and expose the coun
try to more serious risks. I there
fore feel justified in asking that your '
committee will permit me to urge an
ourly vote upon resolutions with re
gard to travel upon-armed merchant
men which recently ban been so much
j talked about, in order that there may
be afforded immediately an oppor
tunity for full public discussion and
! action . upon them, that all doubts
'and conjectures may bo swept away
and our foreign relations once more
cleared of damaging misunderstand
ings. . The matter is of so Brave im
portance and lies so clearly within
the clera executive initiative that I
venture to hope your committee will
not think I am taking unwarranted
liberty in making this suggestion as
to tho business of the house."
