HOUSE WILL GET BOTH DRAFT AND VOLUNTEER ARMY REPORTS ' WA8HINOTON, April 21. The fight for conscription to raise an American army will go to the floor of the House of Representatives Monday, The House Military Affairs Committee, divided, will have two reports, a majority and a minority. Dy a vote of 12 to 8, one member voting "present," Chairman Dent, of tho com mittee, was this afternoon Instructed to report for the majority. Chairman Dent embodied In his report a general review of the bill, disclosing the fol lowing facts: The bill authorizes the Increase of the regular army to war strength, flrsi by voluntary enlistment, and If this proves Inefficient then by draft. The number of men to be gained by this process would be about 287,000. The bill also authorizes the raising of the National Guard to war strength, first by voluntary enlistment and after ward If necessary by draft. The num ber of men to bo pained by this process would be about 625,000. The total army thus provided for by these two establishments or organizations Is a lit .tie more than 900,000. ' The bill authorizes but docs not direct the President to Issue a call for a volunteer army of 600,000 In the first place and of an additional force of 500,000 If necessary, under tho law now In existence. The bill further authorizes the Presi dent to proceed at oncp with tho regis tration of all malo citizens between tho ages of twenty-one and forty as pro vided In the plan of the War Depart ment for a draft. So that all of the machinery authorizing the draft of 500,000 for the first force and of the additional 500,000 will be put In opera tion at once. DISCRETION OF PRE8IDnNT It will require, according to the testi mony of the Secretary of War beforo the Military Committee, at least three months and probably longer to complete this regis tration. Under the plan proposed by the War Department, which was adopted by the committee, the President would have no power to conscript or draft an army until this registration had been completed. In the meantime, If tho President sees fit, he Is authorized to call for volunteers and upon tho completion of -tho registration ho has tho absolute power to decide whether he will toko an army of volunteers or organlzo one by draft. The bill rejected the age limit sug gested by the War Department of from eighteen to twenty-flvc, andaled It from twenty-one to forty. The bill provides that organizations of all forces, other than the regular army, shall bo composed of men who como from, CHURCHILL SEES MIGHTY POWER OF U. S. FLAG ON THE BATTLEFIELDS , , LONDON, April 21. Winston Churchill, former First Lord of the Admiralty, now himself In khaki, wants an .American expeditionary force sent to France as soon as possible simply tor the effect the' presenco of Americans would have en the Allied forces. "Of 'course, I can express only my per sonal opinion," he said today, "but It seems to me certain that the presence of even a single American division on the battlefields of Franco or Flanders this year would ex ercise Influence and afford encouragement out of all proportion to the actual number of men employed. "It was always represented to us that HOUSE COMMITTEE PLANS REVISION OF EXCESS PROFIT TAX FOR WAR WASHINGTON, April 21. Modification of ex-cess profits taxes rather than their Increase was one of the problems seriously before the House Ways and Means Committee today In Its confer ence on the wor revenue bill. If revision of tho excess nrnflt tn-rL. as formulated In the special revenue bill last winter, finally Is determined upon, It wilt be In every respect the most delicate adjustment to be undertaken by the com mittee. There will be less trouble In a readjustment of the Income tax schedules a the committee turns about In Its task to bring an additional 1,800,000,000 Into the Federal Treasury by the close of June, 1918. Although additional excess profits taxes originally were in the mind of tho commit tee as a natural meanB for swelling the war revenue. It now develops that several AMERICAN DOLLARS WILL AID IN RESTORING WAR-TORN LANDS WASHINGTON, April 21. American dollars not only are going to be spent to clear the world of Prussian militarism and autocracy, but also to re store so far as possible the thousands of wrecked homes In the devastated portions of France, Belgium, Serbia and Russia. Announcement wos'made here today that the Carnegie Endowment for International peace has voted 1600,000 to start this hu manttarlan work. The money Is to be spent as "speedily as may be," The decision to start restoration of the stricken districts was reached at a meeting of the board of trustees, presided over by Ellhu Root Other ROOSEVELT FAVORS VOLUNTEERING ONLY AS TEMPORARY MEASURfe NEW YORK, April 21, Colonel Roosevelt struck back today at those who have been using his plan for raising a division of troops as an argument against obligatory service. In the first Interview he has granted on his army plan he reiterated strongly his demand for uni versal obligatory wrvlce, coupled1 with a plea that while his compulsory system was being made operative a'volunteer force be sent abroad. j ".I do not want to be put In the position ot saying to my fellow-countrymen, 'Go to that war,' he declared.

Of this vast army about '3,500,000 would be fit physically. "Only about one-half of that number would be taken, and for that reason we are resorting- to 'selective draft,'" he said. and of officers appointed from, the same State or locality as far as practicable. Both the volunteer and the draft features of the bill authorise the President to re fuse to accept either by enlistment or draft the services of persona needed In the Indus trial pursuits of the country. It provides that the President utilise the services of 11 departments, officers and agents of the Oovernment and of the several States, Territories and the District of Co lumbia for the purpose of exeoutlng- the act All enlistments 'slnoe April 2 shall be for the period of the emergency. The bill carries an BPDroDrlatlon of 13.- 000,000,000 in a lump aum, which, In round figures, covers the total amount estimated to be necessary to carry the provisions Into effect. This estimate Is based on an army of 43,000 officers and 1,018,270 enlisted men for a period of one year. MINORITY'S POSITION Representative Kahn, California, conscrip tion advocate, ranking Republican member of the Military Committee, also completed his report, signed by eight members of th committee, four of whom, have seen mili tary service, and Insists on tho original general stair bin. A letter from Secretary Baker to the Military Committee a few days ago, in which Baker pleaded with tho committee to roport out a strict selective draft bill, was published with the report. Tho minority declares: Tho majority of tho commltteo have seen lit to set their own vlows on tho raising of the proper military forces for the successful conduct of the war above tho views of tho trained military experts of the Government. In this great crisis wo deem It our patriotic duty In this manner of Increasing tem porarily tho military establishment of the, United States, to follow the coun- sel of the commander-in-chief of tho army and his expert advisers. Wc de sire to follow, the plan which they have laid down for us In this manner rather than follow any plan which wo our selves might devise. DEMOCRACY OP PLAN The report emphasizes the difficulties of obtaining volunteers in the Civil War' and In the present war. It would take about two years, tho report BtateB, to ralco the men needed If the present rate under the volunteer system should continue. "The volunteer system would nlwnys carry In Its train an element of uncer tainty," the minority report said. "It Is our Judgment that the volunteer system Is not a fair one. It Is neither equitable nor democratic. In this republic every Ameri can should esteem It an honor to bear his share of tho country's burden. That can only bo done under tho principle Cf uni versal obligation to serve. In our opinion It Is for the nation, not the Individual, to determine what fcervice tho citizen should bear." tho timely arrival of oven a small force of British troops in Franco would stimulate and cheer the heart of every French soldier. "A3 If turned out, our small army achieved very great materil results In fl dltlon to Its moral effect. Perhaps it played a decisive part in the supreme events of the opening phase of tho war. But now, when the terrible weight and burden of this strug gle has pressed for nearly three years upon the French, British and Belgian troops, the arrival of the American flag and the American uniform on the actual line of t t tie would be the veritable signal of ap proachlng deliverance and of vietorv. nnrl would kindle Joy and enthusiasm in eery heart" members have a contrary view. It has been suggested that the excess profits tax be abandoned entirely in favor of a war tax on earnings. This would bo a compara tUely, small tax, but would be levied on gross earnings rather than on profits In excess of 8 per cent of the capital tax. Friends of small business enterprises are persistent in the argument that the excess tax cannot be made to reach corporations with watered stock. They declare that overcapltalliatlon reduces dividends. If the present tendency of the committee Is followed, the excess profits tax will be radically modified. Tho work of the com mittee which must formulate tho blcgest tax bill ever devised Is still in the embryo stage. There seems, however, to be a firmly settled conviction that there will be no tariff tinkering in order to finance the war at least In Its early stages. trustees present were Joseph H.

But we ought to treat a a neces sary supplement to this plan the utilising of volunteers who would not be reached under the obligatory plan who will not and ought not to be asked to volunteer In the regular army or the National Guard, who have 'special fitness for the war and who will come forward eagerly to serve If WAR WILL FORCE CENTRALIZATION OF GOVERNMENT; CONFLICTS SEEN WASHINGTON, April 21. America may have to centralise her Oovernment further for wartimes, Just as England and Franc have done. The reason for this. In the opinion of many here. Is that at present manv admin istrative duties are overlapping If not ao- many conniciing. The food situation Is a striking example of the problem before the Oovernment. Three distinct agencies are doing It or wantlne to probe It to the bottom the Ag ricultural Department, the Federal Trade Commission and the National Council or Defense, And that there may be Just a trace of friction In these three divergent elements was Indicated by the remark of Secretary of Agriculture Houston, when asked If Herbert Hoover, actln for the National Council, would be In charge of food In vestigation. "Why, I thought the Secretary of Agri culture would be in charge," Houston re plied. COASTWISE VESSELS IN CARRYING WASHINGTON. Anrll 11. Every available American coastwise vessel not essential to the trade of the United States is Immediately to be diverted to the transat lantic trade. This Is necessary If the supply of foodstuffs and munitions Is to be kept mov ing to Europe. The Federal Government through the Shipping Board, has called on the various railroad companies owning ves sels to detach as many as possible from the coastwise trade. This will be done In the Immediate future, and the vessels will be maintained In that service until wooden vessels now under construction can be placed In commission. France at the present time Is suffering more than Great Britain from a shortage of supplies. This Is due entirely to the suc cess which the German submarines have met In blockading certain French ports. Steps are now being taken to break this blockade, so that the vessels of the United States can escape the war peril. Officials said today they believed It would be pos sible as the result of this latest action to keep the trade lanes open until the stand ardised wooden vessels were placed on their regular runs. In the meantime the United States will continue Its efforts to prevent any food stuffs from here reaching Germany. It already has made a general Investigation of the allegations that a great portion of the supplies now being exported to Sweden ulti mately reach Gem any. Following Secretary Houston's report to the Senate showing the great danger of a serious shortage of food supplies unless the Government is given complete control, came further alarming word from the forestry service today. It was officially stated that severe weather was causing an enormous loss of cattle and sheep In the mountain States of the West The loss of sheep In Wy omlng, Montana, Idaho and Utah may reach 20 per cent of the total, officials say. Sheep generally are In poor condition and a very short lamb crop 1b looked for. ' If present plans are followed. Congress will be asked to take up the question of foodstuff legislation as soon as the army V. S. SAILOR GIRLS HAPPY ATNO-TROUSER EDICT WASHINGTON, April 21.

"The obligatory service Idea Is capital to make those serve who ought to do some thing, and we ought not to let It be twisted Into preventing those who ardently desire to serve from serving even although they would be exempt from serving under the obligatory law," In other words, many here have thought that Hoover was to have a sort of food dic tatorship but he won't, if Houston's Ideas are correct. Another Instance of where tho Govern ment branches apparently fall to team to gether fully Is Indicated b'y the fact that on Sunday President Wilson appealed to the country for Its service and to prac tice econumy. A few days 'later Howard Coffin, of the National Council of Defense, Issued a statement explaining 'what kind of economy to practice and virtually saying, "Don't practice extraordinary economy." Reports are current that some of the Gov ernment branches are not entirely pleased at the National Council qf Defense with the necessarily divergent views as represented by men from many walks of life. In the circumstances there Is talk here today that something may have to be done to give a broader central control for the war only. France, a great republic, finds herself highly centralized and the upshot In this country may be the same. TO BE USED SUPPLIES TO ALLIES bill Is out of the way. By that time Her bert J. Hoover, who Is to be the head of the food distribution board In this country, will have reached this city from London. Mr. Hoover will havo placed at his disposal as soon as he reaches here all of the statistics complied by the Department of Agriculture and will co-operate with that organisation In his regular work. He also will have the final say as to whether the Administration will back a plan for prohibition during the war to save grain. PREDICTS BLOODSHED IF DRAFT IS ORDERED WASHINGTON. April 21. Arguing against tho draft bill before the Senate Military Affairs Committee, Joseph Cannon. labor organizer, predicted "blood would flow In the streets" If conscription Is adopted. "While we are seeking to establish democ racy In Germany we must beware of es tablishing autocracy m the United States' said Cannon. "Conscription Is against every Ideal for which our forefathers fought. Prices will soar, strikes will be called, riots will result and blood will run in tho streets." Grant Hamilton, another labor leader, read a brief statement from Samuel Gom pers. president of the American Federation of Labor, opposing conscription, and de clared that American labor "stands solidly against It." "If we conscript men, then we must also conscript property," said Hamilton. "Labor Is willing to give Its best .service, but It protests against the taking away of its rlabts." Pacifists, headed by James Cads How, of St. Louis, millionaire hobo, appeared be fore the Senate Military Affairs Committee before the Senate went Into session today, to argue against the passage ot tho draft bill. The committee, however, had Its mind made up and its hearing of the pac ifists was merely a courtesy.
