CONSCRIPTION PUN
WILL FINALLY WIN
Senators and Representatives'
Realize More and More That!
They Must Stand by the
President
BT RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON. April 14.—Passage by
| the lower house of the 17,000,000,000
bond bill marked the first important leg
: sslative step of the war congress. ln
i cidentally It cleared the decks for the
consideration of another legislative
I measure of the first 'magnitude—the se-
I lectlve conscription bill, by means of
which the government proposes to raise
an army of 500,000 lighting men between
the ages of nineteen and twenty-five.
The army legislation will meet with
opposition, its passage will not be so
easy of accomplishment as was the en
actment of tlie bond bill. The title of
the bill, the very caption, ’’conscilptlon,’’
is one of tfie chief obstacles In its way.
The idea of drafting men for the arrpy
doesn’t appeal, at first blush, to the
average representative or senator, nor
does it challenge the commendation of
! the people, generally speaking It is re
garded as undemocratic, a kingly instru
' ment. repugnant to a free born people.
Since the announcement of the gov
ernment’s plan of selective conscription
i the probable fate of this legislation In
i congress has been the principal topic
. of conversation among senators and rep
resentatives There is still doubt as
to the final form of the legislation, but
The Journal correspondent has reason
I to believe that the president’s plan, in
its chief essentials, will prevail, state
i ments to the contrary notwithstanding.
PROTESTS AT FIRST.
A storm of protest greeted the first
announcement of the selective conscrip
tion plan. Senators and representatives
did not hesitate to voice their opposi
tion. and freely predict the failure of
the “militarist effort to saddle con
scription upon the American people.”
They received many telegrams and let
ters that strengthened them in their
positions, and the outlook for the legis
lation was gloomy for a few days.
Happily, however, the opposition to
the legislation is weakening. It is less
pronounced today than it was yesterday,
and yesterday it was less positive than
the day before. Os course, al) of the
opposition will not fade away entirely.
Indeed, it is possible that the friends
of conscription will yield a lit
tle. and it may be that a period of
ninety days will be allowed for volun
tary enlistments before the conscription
actually begins. Voluntary enlistments,
however, would be restricted to youths
between the ages of nineteen and twen
-1 ty-five.
Two influences have operated to weak
en the opposition to conscription:
First, a disposition of senators and
representatives to stand by the presi
dent and give him what he wants, based
in part upon their personal confidence
' in his far sightedness and in part upon
the realization that the people are with
him
i Second, the realization that the volun
rary system, whenever and wherever
tried, has proved a failure, coupled i
with the realization that the United |
States has entered upon the greatest
struggle In its history.
OTHER INFLUENCES.
There are other Influences, or rea
sons. for the softening of the protes
tants against the legislation, such, for
j Instance, as the assurance that under
selective conscription individual sena
. tors and congressmen will be relieved |
of pressure from a horde of "office-seek- (
Ing soldiers.” otherwise patriots who
are willing enough to go to war if they I
can wear epaulets on their shoulders.
The disposition to stand by the presi- i
dent proceeds on the theory that since ■
congress declared war the men who com- |
pose the congress, the men who voted
' for the war. can do no l“ss than sup
port the leader upon whom rests the
responsibility of prosecuting the war 'o
a successful Issue. Moreover, there is
the realization that when all is said and
done the president is better informed
' on the requirements of the situation
than any other man in the country. He >
has the' facilities at hts command to
gain the information, to estimate the
exigencies of the situation.
The recent election sufficed to con
vince the members of congress that
the people are behind the president.
The senators and representatives need
only to revert to the returns of that
memorable November election to be im
pressed with the realization that the ;
I president speaks for the people
VOLUNTEER SYSTEM FAILURE.
Experience has demonstrated that the
voluntary system Is expensive and in- !
efficient —expensive in money and hu
man lives, inefficient in accomplish
ment. The history of the Civil war
offers the best argument against the
volunteer army.
There Is in the library of congress
; a book called ‘The Military Policy of the
United States.” It was written by Gen- I
i eral Emery Upton, of the United States
army, and offers abundant evidence of
the woeful Inefficiency of the volunteer
forces during the Civil war, which the
book discusses comprehensively.
Os the second period of the Civil war
in 1862, General Upton had this to say
bearing upon the voluntary system:
“During this period the government j
and the Confederates conducted the war ■
on contrary principles. The government .
sought to save the union by fighting
as a confederacy, the Confederacy
sought to destroy It by fighting as a
nation. The government recognized the
states, appealed to them for troops, ad
hered to voluntary enlistments, gave
the governors power to appoint all com
missioned officers and encouraged them
to organize new regiments. The Con- |
federates abandoned state sovereignty, i
appealed directly to the people, took ,
away from them the power to appoint
commissioned officers, vested their ap- !
I pointment in the Confederate president, ■
refused to organize war regiments,
abandoned voluntary enlistments and. !
adopting the republican principle that i
! every citizen owes his country military
service, called into the army every white
man between the ages of eighteen and
thirty-five.

HOUSE IS ONJNIMOIIS
IN FIRST STEP TO AID
ENTENTE ALLY CAUSE
i“Yeas” Are 389—Myer Lon
• don. Socialist, Answered
“Present” to Roll Call on
$7,000,000,000 Issue
WASHINGTON, April 14. —The house
of representatives today passed unani
mously the biggest bond bill in the his
tory of the world—authorizing five bil
lion dollars in bonds and two billion dol
lars In treasury certificates.
The senate is expected to pass it by
Wednesday at the latest.
Every member but one present—3B9
voted for the bill. Meyer London, New
York socialist, voted “present.”
In passing the bill~the house took the
first great step in famishing America’s
first bit in the European war.
Three billion dollars of the bonds will
be used to take up a like amount of
bonds of this country's carrying
as do all the bonds and certificates 3 1-2
per cent Interest and maturing when the
secretary of the treasury directs.
The remaining two billion dollars
worth of bonds will be used to pay part
of America’s expenses in conducting
her own part of the world war against
the German kaiser. The two billion dol
lars in treasury certificates of indebted
ness also will be used for this pur
pose. They amount to government
I O U's and will be Issued to banks (pay
able when special taxes .to be raised by
a forthcoming revenue bill are received
by the government.
NO LOANS AFTER WAR.
By amendments, adopted to offset Re
publican opposition to the tremendous
power given, the president and Secre
tary McAdoo, the bonds for the allies
may be issued only to nations at war
with a country with which the United
States also is at war. and none of the
money, if any remains, may be loaned
after the war is over.
Efforts of some Republicans to have a
congressional committee act with the
president and McAdoo failed signally.
Debate in the house seldom was more
spiritless than that on the bill, the most
Important, economically, of any legisla
tive body has passed.
There were few “high spots.” though
members realized that by passing the
bill they increased this government's to
tal national debt from a little over a
billion dollars to $3,455,000.000 —exclu-
sive of the three billion dollars in the al
lied loan and the two billion dollars in
treasury certificates.
Out of the debate stood two big facts:
ANYTHING FOR FRANCE.
America, regardless of politics, pur
poses to help the allies as much as pos
sible and as soon as possible, for her own
interest and their; France, godmother of
the suffering colonies during the revolu
tion. can have most anything she really
needs that we can give her.
As the house proceeded to pass the bill
the gallaries were half filled. The lone
spectator in the diplomatic and execu
tive galleries was a bored doorkeeper.
Members yawned and went outside fee
quentlj- to smoke as the afternoon wore
on.
There were just two tense moments —
when Meyer London voted ’present” and
when Miss Jeanette Rankin voted “aye.”
As London voted there was complete al
ienee—for the first time today—for sev
eral seconds. Members also waited for
Miss Rankin’s faint "aye” and sighed in
I relief when she failed to accompany it
with an exclamation, as she did in vot
ing against the war resolution.
It took 25 binutes to report the vote
on the bill. As members voted, they
hastened from the chamber, many of
them to go home before the vote was an
nounced. Speaker Clark put in his vote
and announced:
“On this vote the ayes are 3RD and the
( nays none."
There was just a litl tired applause
; and the house proceeded to hear Repre
sentative Tilson, of Connecticut, protest
against recording of the pairs, by which
I absent Republicans and Democrats off-:
set each other’s votes.
Epochal Week of War

Resume of Work of Adminis
tration Thus Far Shows Gi
gantic Strides Taken Against
Prussian Autocracy
BY CABL D. GROAT.
WASHINGTON. April 14.—Three
tremendous thrusts toward success
over Getviany transpired here today.
The house passed the $7,000,000,-
000 war tend bill,
Notne was given twenty states
that they can raise additional guard
units, sna,
Official announcement was made
that America plans a commission
which shall aid Russia.
The house swept through its bill
with no dissenting votes.
The war department in forward
ing word to governors that if they
choose, they can raise more units,
counselled none be raised until
the present units are filled, and
warned that no units will be taken
into federal service if they are below
peace sfrength.
The war department already has
advised that the additional units
could not be rasied. Judge Advo
cate General Crowder, however,
ruled otherwise, and word of his
decision was sent to twenty states.
All these states can now recruit
up to 800 men per congressional dis
trict, but if politics enter into ap
pointments, the army will not hesi
tate to use the weeding out process
on the unfit. Army men fear it
means more plums.
While congress acted on the war
bond bill and the war department
took this new step, the state depart
ment announced its plan to send to
Russia an official commission.
Thl Russian commission is sepa
rate from those that will go to oth
er allied countries.
The whole plan is to make
American-allied efforts unified and
potent.
Before many days, the first of the
notables from England and France
will come here to start counselling
with American officials —to show
them how to avoid blunders the
allies have made and to arrange for
the most thorough harmony of ef
fort. *
Admiral Fletcher was assigned by
the navy to act as its representa
tive In the conference.
Other, news developments of the
day included unearthing of an al
leged Philadelphia pacifist plot to
halt recruiting: formation of plans
for obtaining 40.000 standardized
trucks for the new army; receipt of
word from Holland that lhere is a
German propaganda afoot whereby
the Socialists shall try to sway
Russia into a separate peace; an
nouncement by the navy of a drive
to fill up its ranks to 100,000 by
May I—Dewey day.
Next week, the administration
army bill comes up for serious con
sideration. It should be acted on
by the end of next week—and can
vasses today showed that the se
-1 lectlve draft plan will prevail.
The upper house will o. k. the war
bill, and work will be started on
the espionage* bill.

Sperry 60-lnch Lamp Can Be
Seen 75 Miles—Skyscrapers
Will Present Marvelous
Sight Under Illumination
BY J. HERBERT DUCKWORTH.
NEW YORK, April 14.—Scouring the
skies for Zeppelins and other hostile air
craft with hundreds of giant searchlights
will be a most important and picturesque
part of the antl-aerial warfare that will
be waged for the defense of New York
City—the nation's front door.
Searchlights are to aircraft what the
submarine chasers are to U-boats —their
most dreaded enemy.
Recent trials in Brooklyn of the Sperry
1.250,000.000 candle power searchlight,
the most powerful in the world, gave
New Yorkers an idea of the extraordi
nary powers of penetration of these
modern high-intensity lamps. The Sper
ry sixty-inch lamp can be seen seventy
five miles.
From what T witnessed during the
first eight months of the war in London
I can say that New York’s first realiza
tion that the country is in the great
world conflict will come when the bat
teries of searchlights commence to pro
ject their incandescent beams heaven
wards in quest of sky pirates.
It was a beautlfu sight, in spite of the
ever-present danger or annihilation
from the air above it indicated, to watch
the long ribbons of light illuminating
the clouds and as they were swung
around eerily lighting up the dome of
St. Paul's cathedral, or “Big Ben” and
the Victoria tower at Westminster.
New York’s wonderful skyline of sky
scrapers should present a marvelous pic
ture when from the tops of many of its
architectural peaks shafts of artificial
moonlight stab the darkness in their
hunt for aerial cruisers.
For a time the unusual sight will
amuse, as similar precautions enter
tained the smugly-contented Londoners.
Then one night a score or so of high
explosive bombs will be dropped on New
York's teeming millions and the city will
know first-hand that the war is on.
