WASHINGTON, Oct. 27. -()-
Voting overwhelmingly to repeal the
arms embargo, the Senate tonight
approved the Administration neu-
trality bill and sent it on to the
House, where the proponents of the
measure claim a small but safe
majority.
The 63 to 30 vote for the measure
was the climax of four weeks' debate
in the Senate and a discussion which
has raged up and down the nation
as a whole since the war in Europe
began.
The bill would permit the belliger-
ents of Europe to buy American pro-
ducts of any kind, with the restric-
tion that in general they must pay
cash, may borrow no money here,
and must provide foreign ships for
transporting their purchases across
the Atlantic.
Further, it is intended to -insulate
the United States from the war, by
laying down conditions designed to
prevent "incidents" likely to inflame
public opinion or tending otherwise
to drag this country into the conflict.
.For this purpose it' forbids Ameri-
can ships to sail for belligerent ports
in the danger areas, bir to enter "com-
bat" zones to be demarcated by the
President, and prohibits American
citizens to travel on belligerent ships.
Four weeks of debate had so fully
covered the issue of the embargo,
that whenthe Senate reached the
point gt which it was confronted with
Current Peace
Views Offered
By Professors

what Senator Clark (Dem.-Mo)
called the "naked issue of whether
we should have an embargo or not,"
the legislators finally found that they
had nothing more, to say.
The vote on repeal, presented ' by
Clark in the form of an amendment
to insert an embargo into the present
bill, showed 60 Senators for repeal
and 33 against it. However, three of
those who voted to retain the embar-
go, although beaten on that issue, felt
obliged to support the bill on final
passage. They were Senators Gil-
lette (Dem.-Iowa), Reed (Rep.-Kas.)
and Johnson (Dem.-Colo). Thus, the
vote on final passage was 63 to 30.
Three Senators were absent, but
their position was announced by col-
leagues. Of them, Glass (Den.-Va.)
and Ashurst (Dem.-Ariz.), were for
the 'bill, and Bone (Dem.-Wash.) was
against. Counting all the Senate,
then, the final vote was 65 to 31, with
the Administration receiving almost
exactly the number of votes it esti-
mated would go to it when the session
began five weeks ago.

Condemns Governments'
Usurpation Of Power
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Oct. 27.-(P)
-Pope Pius XII, in he first encycli-
cal of his Pontificate, today assailed
governments in which civil authority
"puts itself in the place of the Al-
mighty and elevates the state or group
into the last end of life."
"It is quite true that power based'
on such weak and unsteady founda-
tions can attain at times under
chance circumstances material suc-
cesses apt to arouse wonder in super-
ficial observers," he acknowledged.
"But the moment comes," he
warned, "when the inevitable law
triumphs, which strikes down all that
has been constructed upon a hidden
or open disproportion between the,
greatness of the material and out-
ward success and the weakness of the
inward value and of its moral founda-
tion."

Varied Opinions Presented
By Faculty Members In
Union Forum Discussed
Three current views on the pres-
ent American peace dilemma were
presented by faculty members to an
audience of more than 300at the
open forum meeting yesterday at the
Union.
The three views, each upheld by
several of the six faculty members
present, were: that Hitler must be
exterminated, even if we must fight;
that only a guaranteed 'permanent
peace will suffice to draw us into.
the conflict; and that we must keep
out of any war, no muter what the
costs.
Prof. Preston W. Slosson of the
history department, Prof. John P.
Dawson of the Law School, Prof.
Harold J. McFarlan of the engineer-r
ing school, Prof. Howard W. Eir-
mann of the history department,
Prof. Arthur Smithies of the econom-
ics department and Prof. Louis C.
Karpinski of the mathematics de-
partment 'spoke on the various
points,
Professor Slosson supported a long
range policy in which the United
States would play a major part in
guaranteeing world peace. In short,
he said the solution of the war cycle
lies in internationalism or something
closely allied to it.

Steinhardt said' that Assistant
Commisar of Foreign Affairs Potem-
kin had advised him that the Russian
government felt that its decision was
not only in accordance with the wells
recognized principles of international
law and consonant with the obliga-
tions of a neutral but that it was also
the correct position to take as be-
tween the conflicting claims of the
United States 'and Germany to pos-
session of the vessel and her cargo.
The ship had been seized by a Ger-
man raider, and taken to Russia.
The United States, contending the
Germans had no right to take her to
a neutral port, had demanded that
Russia hand her over to this coun-
try.

The problem of getting, reporting
and interpreting war news occupied
the attention of University Press
Club members and their guests yes-
terday at the second day's program
of their 21st annual convention.
Cut short by the inability of Sen.
Arthur H. Vandenberg and Attorney
General Frank Murphy to appear as
scheduled in a forum on national
affairs, proceedings in the afternoon
were merged with those of the stu-
dent panel on American neutrality
and peace, sponsored by 'the Student.
Senate.
Before the merger, however, more
than 150 people heard Donald J.
Sterling, President of the American
Society of Newspaper Editors, S.L.A.
Marshall, editorial writer for the De-
troit News and' W. J. McCambridge,
assistant manager of the Associated
Press, discuss the shortcomings and
difficulties of the present war .cover-
age.
Emphasizing that the war report-
ing thus far has been mediocre, es-
pecially from the editorial standpo4
of play of stories, Mr. Marshall in-
dicated the need for selecting cor-
respondents from those experienced'
in military and naval matters. If
this were done, he predicted, "the
ten plane raids and minor t attles we
have heard of would be treated as
they should be: as mere skirmishes
and not as major engagements.".
Part of the fault lies with the edi-
tors who fail to judge news with the
attitude that correspondents "walk
a tight-rope between censors and
propaganda experts,"' he 'explained.
Failure to consider this fact has
led to the over-play of stories in
many instances.

ASM Founder Membership
Given For Research

As Bruno Richard Hauptmann1
planned his perfect crime; he failed
to reckon with Arthur Koehler,
'11F&C-wood analyzing exper' ex-
traordinary-who told the inside -
story yesterday at the 12th Annual
Land Utilization Conference's lun-
cheon of how he had accumulated
the evidence which sent Hauptmann
to the chair.
Koehler, affiliated with the Forest
Products Laboratory at Madison, ex--
plained with the aid of lantern slides
the methods he used in tracing and
analyzing the wood in the kidnapper's
ladder.
Part of the ladder's lumber was
traced to a South Carolina mill that
had shipped it to a .Bronx lumber-
yard having in its employ at the'
time a' carpenter named Bruno
Hauptmann, who resigned shortly
after the kidnapping.
This circumstantial evidence was
not conclusive, however, and Koehl-
er proceeded to discover that another
part of the ladder was made from a
floor board ripped out of Hauptmann's
attic.
The conference began yesterday'
morning with a discussion-of a recent
report of the National Resourcesd
Committee, on land utilization and
regional planning in the northern
lake states. Prof. Willitt F. Rams-
dell, Willis Pack professor of Forest
Land Management and director of
the program in gland utilization of

Administration and Prof. George S.

For outstanding work in his field
and to the American Society of
Metals, Prof. Albert E. White, director
of the Engineering research depart-.
ment, was awarded a founder mem-
bership by that society Thursday
night in Chicago.x
Professor White served as first
president of the American Society of
Metals upon its organization in 1920.
He is fourth to be named to founder
membership by the society.
The American Society for Metals
was formed by consolidation othe
Steel Treating Research Society
of Detroit and the American Steel
Treaters Society of Chicago. Recog-
nizing the undesirability of having
two technical societies in substanti-
ally the same field, Professor White
was active in bringing about sonsoli-
dation of the two.
Through contacts with members in
both societies, Professor White be-
came acquainted with the advisability
of amalgamation shortly after his
return from the World War. After
