Tho threo moot Important Administra tion measures In CongrcFs wcro con fronted today bytho prospect of radical revision or defeat They were: l'lrst, The Overman bill crnntlnc tho President sweeping: powers to re erirantro the war Koernmcnt. Second. The bill ostensibly In tended to arm the Department of Justice with ptrongcr IckhI weapons to rounding up spies and dllo)nllMs Third. The War Department's com HiandccrlnK bill ttrauttntc (ho Oo em inent Unprecedented authority In tak- ' lng over pthatc property. Tho determination of a large clement In Congress to call a halt on tho ex tension of so-called "blanket power fo tho executho department forms the foundation of tho opposition. There 1' no disposition to shut down on unj measures neccst-ury to the conduct of tho war". This was1 cldenccd by the Senate's action In passing thu ? 12.000, 000,000 bond nnd certificate bill In forty minutes, llut tho feellnff has gained headway that ConBrcS!. to letaln Its legislative prerogatives, must specify powers and slop giving tho executive department carte blanche authority. Cam ass of the Senate Indicated to day that the Administration forces would be forced to accept n broad compromise on the Overman bill or risk defeat op position Senators claimed to hae mill dent voles to carry an amendment either specifically exempting certain jravernmental departments from the op eration of the 0crman bill or dellnlttly stating those to which It shall apply The opposition Is pounding tho fait that the bill, In Its present form, will Blvo the President au horlty, If he see fit, to abolish the Interstate Commerce Commission. Senator Overman, In charge of the measure, declares tho President has no such Plan In mind, but the opposition takes the lcw th.it Congress should not grant him such j power under any clrcunibtnnces Although anxious to facllllato the rounding up of spies and copperhead" i opposition Senators today were firm In i their determination either to recommit I tho new spy trill for redrafting or defeat It altogether. They declured that It goes far bejond the necessities of the situation and would strlKe u death blow I ut tho freedom of press and speech dur- Ing the war. Senator Johnson, of Call- UI IIU ICaUIIIK II IV illll UKitlllBl UIO bill, declared it would forbid a man to even think In criticism of the Adminis tration. Tho proporty commandeering bill probably never will emerge again from the Senate Military Affairs Committer, to which It was referred. Members declared today It exceeds the bounds of reason.
