WILSON TO BACK
UNIVERSAL ARMY
TRAINING FOR U.S.
President's New Jtttitude
Believed to Explain Stand
on Draft Age
BILL IS IN PREPARATION
"Will Be Presented to Congress
as Administration Measure
i Next September
i
Washington, June 28
The reason back of the War Depart
ment's announced opposition for the
present to changes In the draft age limits
I the conversion of President Wilson to
the support of plans for the establish
ment of universal military training in
the I'nlted States
This has become known hi the Senate,
although no mention of the President's
ehange of base was made upon the floor
Ba debate over the Fall amendment to
the army appropriation bill changing the
flge limits from twenty-one to thirty-one
to from eighteen to forty-five continued
: The War Department months ago con
ducted an Investigation of vital statis
tics regarding the man-power of the
Vnited States with a view to formula
tion of draft legislation and to the pos
sible Incorporation in such legislation
pf provision for the establishment of a
system of universal military training
Very recently President Wilson came ;
to the opinion tha, in the framing of
new legislation dealing with the selective
draft law it would be necessary to pre.
pare a measure which would take Into
considers Hen , n ..
...... .,, .,,,,! ,,,.' nrnrill IVMT
exigency, hut the post-war period of In
ternational readjustment.
Although heretofore a consistent if not
nubOcry announced opponent of uni
versal service, the President has let It
be known to rk.w friends that In his
opinion something must he done to pro
vide for a regular and established fixed
annual Increment of soldiers for the
army of the. t'nited States, at least for !
the period In which the world distraught
and In turmoil after the war shall be I
readjusting Itself to meet the stupen- I
dous alteration which political maps ,
and boundary lines have undergone.
The President has realized that war
measures will repeal themselves with
the ending of hostilities nnd the pro-
mulgatlon of peace, and yet nominal
peace may not be free from the menace
of possibly i resumed strife tt. preserve
world law and world order, and that the
nation once out of the war will have
duties to perforin wl.ich will require at
least a trained force ready for trane-
lltu i ,1 i I'tn llltu n silling i,,, - it, i i r.i i a
, . I
This change of position the President
related to close friends several weeks
ago. He has not taken the Senate Into
his confidence nor are the men who he
"" ' "t""iu i'i una aes.re ,
members of either house of Congress. :
TY,. lt-nat,t n ...111 ,- ,-a.. .... iu
The President will not send for the
congressional leaders before the pres
entation of the War Department's new
plan for readjusting age limits under
the draft "WV, but when the plan
emerges from the hands of the experts i
now engaged In framing it It will be
lent to Congress as a concrete plan out
of which necessary legislation to put It I
Into effect may be drafted Into law
The framework of the proposed new l
law is onlv north- comnlete now The
details have not been disclosed nor are
they likely to be until that time in Sep
tember when, according to the promises
made by Secretary of War Baker to
the Senate Committee on Military Af
fairs, the views of the Admlnlstsatlon
as to draft limit ages will be set before
Congress
I Want It to Be Hla Own
The President desires that the pro
posed universal military training plan
shall be his own When It Is finished
and ready for presentation in Congress
It will be. If his w-lsheo are followed, an
administration measure for which the
Admlnlstr.tlon and not anv legislators
previously 'active in the cause of unl-;
versal military training will figure.
Both Senator Chamberlain and New,
-hen thev learned of the renorted
change of the Administration's attitude.

to step aside, waive all "pride of author-

may propose In the way of universal
service.
The Administration Is expected to pro.

twenty-one.
