WASHINGTON, May 15.-After near-
ly three weeks of debate the Senate
77 to 6 last night passed the adminis-
tration espionage bill, one of the most
drastic measures in American history.
A similar bill was passed by the House
and virtual redrafting of many of the
most important provisions is expected
in the forthcoming conference.
During the day the Senate stripped
the bill of the new^iaper censorship
provisions and restrictions upon the
use of grain in manufacture of alcohol'
ic beverages and rejected an amend-
ment designed to curb speculation in
food products, altho sentiment was in
| favor largely of this legislation later.
The bill authorizes the President to
I embargo exports when he finds It for
the public interest; authorizes the Post-
offica department to censor mails and
excliitle mail matter deemed seditious;
provides for severe punishment for es-
pionage: provides for control of mer-
chant ships in American waters; auth-
orizes punishment for conveyance of
false reports to interfere with military
operations, wilful attempts to cause)
