These doors were not work- ing when the liner sailed from South ampton, no attempt was made to test thom during the maiden trip, in the fear they would stick, and they were, therefore, open when the Titanic hit the iceberg. It is stated that practically the same conditions prevailed on the maiden voyages of the Adriatic, Ove anie and Olympic. Just what small chance for thor lives the Titanic passengers had is shown by the statement that during her rin from Belfast to Southampton no aliempt was made to test the ship's safety devices, her speed or her seaworthiness.

The amendment provides for depor: tation of uny alien "who conspires for the violent overthrow of a foreign government." Berger declared it would place death warrants of many han dreds of political refugees in the hands of the Caar of Russia if enacted. "New York and Chicago are full of Russian spies,.' Perger declared. 'Rus: sin is contimmally watching politieal refugees. It is revengeiul and wants to get them back for persecution.
