though the measure wai demanded
by thn Interests of the timet,
though our ships were being unk
by tha ruthless campaign waged by
the Uvboata, though our people,
when we wero supposed to be at
peace with Germany, without warn
lng( wro being tent to watery
tjravei never a word did we hear
from the ftps of Mr. Slayden In de
nunciation of the lavage and bar
barlo tendencies of the war lords
of the Hunsi but Helen to htm when
ho speaka in opposition to this bill
He said! 'I have heard the sug
gestion made, but as a jut, I hope,
that the only way wo can get ehlpe
until long after the great European
war will certainly end either from
hauitlon or from decisive victory
on the field of battle, i to pick a
quarrel with Germany and seize
hr ships that eought security in
ur porta, that they had reason to
belhjve wero neutral. Of caurie,
that method of building up an
American merchant marine i not
henoreblo and would be revolting
to gentlemen, would bring upon ut
the aontempt of the allies whom it
would help.' Can you conceive of
any gentleman's sensibilities being
outraged after the record made by
the treachery and the avarhse of
those leader of Germany who
count solemn treaties as mere
scrap of paper and whose warring
mlllhjnt burn efties, outrage de
f ensile i swomen and mutilate help
less children?

ed! 'All the acerbity that ha ehar
acteriieil th debate in Congress,
In the newspapers and on the street
has come from the heat with which
supporters of this and that plan
have presented their views. I refer ;
to these whoso vievt are henett, I
not to those who would promote
military activities for profit, e
peeially not to those munitions
makers and other traders who
would Involve the universe In war
and send scouting parties to Mars
to Insure dividends, nor to the fin
ancier who have made investment
in war bonds that they want the
taxpayers of the United States to
endorse.'
-'Slayden would turn all the
the spies and other enemies
unfettered, for he aaid, weak

amendments: 'They do not say
Congress shall make some laws or
some sort of law, but they say
