The amend ment proposing an increase in rntes on newspapers and magazines and one cent postage for drop letter mail were dropped from the 8ennte postoflii-e ap propriation bill today on points of or der made by Senator Lodge, of Mnssa hnsetts, that this waa general legisla tion on an appropriation bill. This tnd the fight for the cession on these items. The Benat retained th amend ments to prevent circulation by Inter state commerce of newspaper, postal rds, or any publication or solicitation1 f orders, for alcoholic liquors im States where legislation ha been enacted to secure prohibition. The Senate once had adopted the in creased newspsper rates and one cent letter postage. Because several Keua tora had not been present when the amendment embodying these provisions waa accepted, Henator Suioot, who of fered them, asked for a reconsideration, ihe Sonata voted to reconsider, and it waa after a debate of two hour that the controversy was ended bv Senator Lodge. During tha wrangle. Senator Norrls aad Bankhead proposed the adoution of a ion system for second dart mall. Senator Hoke Smith presented a a'mi- lar propositions These were shut out on points of order. The Reed amendment, preventing: al- coholie liquor from being advertised in prohibition fltntes, will make "bone dry" such Htntes, it is contended by the prohibitionist. The. .success with these amendments is pointed out as n good indication that national prohibi tion will be approved In the Senate. YOUNG IS WELCOMED BACK TO COMMAND By A. L.

Washington, Feb, Id. fconaW New Made, chairman of the Committee on Interstate Commerce, made a formal re port today recommending the passage of the bill intended to carry oul the Presi dent s program of railroad legislation The bill provide that the old mediation and conciliation act shall be amended by allowing representatives from the employes and railroad official to be appointed to meet with .the mediation and coltei'lation board when the bitter hat failed to settle a dispute. Tt au thoriaea the President to protect the operatioa of the trains in peace and to take possession of the carrier and draft their erew ia war. The bill excludes legislation for compulsory suspension nf strike of lockout pending investigation. "The committee," the report say, 'waa divided upon the anbiect of aus- pending of the right of trikg ot lock out during th period -of investigation .nd a reasonable time thereafter.
