Porter Peace Bill Heading to House Action Monday
The Porter resolution to end the state of war with the Central Powers advances after a 205 to 105 rule vote, replacing the Knox measure. Democrats claim the move throttles debate and would please every German and traitor while Republicans back the plan as a substitute for repealing the wartime declaration.
