Dutch premier says Holland has right to sanctuary
In a parliamentary debate on the former German emperor’s visit to Holland, premier Beerenbruck affirmed Holland’s right of sanctuary.

McAdoo urges five year extension of railroad control to 1924
Director General McAdoo argues a five year extension of federal railroad control is the only practical path, extending beyond the present law to January 1, 1924. He says the test would remove politics, stabilize management, and allow a comprehensive program of improvements to prove the future of rail control. The plan seeks to test unified control while avoiding immediate ownership shifts, with President Wilson supporting the approach.
