The first vote, which many members believed ended the two day censorship flgsht, was 220 to 167 against the muzzling of the press. The vote on the Gard substi- tute, which Representative Graham of Pennsylvania asserted was' pre- sented in violation of the gentlemen's agree, was 190 to 185. Some opponents of censorship had left the chamber and were not reached in time to vote on the second roll call, whén the censorship advo- cates turned defeat into victory: The Espionage bill was passed by the housa early in the evening as there was little controversy over the other sections of the bill. The final vote on the bill was 260 to 105. .
