With the bill Chamberlain submitted a report recommending quick action and quoting much testimony given by mili tary authorities behind closed doors and hitherto unpublished. "It Is up to us to win this war and we can win It," March was quoted as saying to the Committee. "How long it ft will take will depend exactly upon what we do If we drag along with this thing we will be playing Germany's game That heavy Inroads will be made in the ranks of young men below the age of twenty-one Is Indicated by March's testimony. "My opinion Is unqualifiedly in favor of the young men," he said, replying to question by Senator Reed "The young men between eighteen and twenty are usually not married, they have not set tled down in life, they have not any In eurobrenoea and they are better off physically. ' "The. President has finally announced that tha American military policy from this time on Is centered on the western front and h. has declined to be diverted from that one thing. The War Depart ment has now adopted this as a policy and It is the policy of the United States that the military program la to be centered in France. America's Purpose to Wldp Germany The purpose of America is to furnish enough man-power to whip the Ger mans from rjpw on. The only way that uermany can oe wnippeu is uy America going Into this thing with her whole strength. The policy of the War De partment Is to put the maximum num ber of men in France, with the Idea of shortening' the war. "We found from the figures furnished by the provost marshal general that we could embark on a program of eighty divisions In; France by June 30, 1819, 'with eighteen divisions at home These divisions consist of, roughly. 40,000 men to a division. "AlUof the men obtained under the proposed change In the draft law ap proximately 2,300,000 men we expect to have in France, by June 30, 1919." Secretary Baker was quoted In tha testimony as supporting March's post tlon throughout Civilisation at Stake in summing up the bill Chairman Chamberlain said the committee be lieved that In view of the fact that "civilisation Itself Is at stake" It1 was necessary to draw upon the younger men.
