today under a rule cal -
ing for a final vote X
4:30 o'clock. More than
fifty members had been assigned
apeaklng time but adoption of the
mc,)5iire as a substitute for the Knox
resolution repealing tin' state of war
' wsa generally expected.
Republicans expected solid support
for the measure and expect many
democrats to Join them In the novo
men! to bring about peaceful rela
tion w tt'li Germany.
Adoption of the porter resolution
will mean a conference Ol senate and
house leaders, each declaring deter
mination to stand by their own peace
plan.
Representative Connally, democrat,
Texas, said adoption of the resolution
would leave Germany free to hold or
Bleze American prpoerty and permit
thai outcry to demand return f all
firrmnn property held in the liiitpd
Suites,
"Germany, which we conquered,
will become, under the measure, our
br.ual ai the treaty-making table and
mat e your president cringe while de
mandlng that which we won by the
