f j

mittee and while the House committee .was in adjournment until 4 o'clock this afternoon, Chairman Flood took to the White House proposed amendments including one to prohibit .arming of ships carrying munitions or. contraband, and the other to limit the President's authority. . v . i.yrH''l ' The1 Senate committee iad ..decided to re-draft the whole bill to make it more explicit. .5' ' ' . ' ; The right to arm ships, it was said, would take the form . of authorising owners of all American ships to arm and defend them and authorizing the government to supply guns and gunners for this purpose. Administration officials considered the - attitude of Cpngress in the fact of the Laconia case, of sufficient importance to discuss sending an official report on the killing of the Americans to Congress in some official way.
