Especial Correspondence

Washington, March. .22.l-The ways
have been practically cleared for the
bill for the federal pay OF the militia
in the house. This bill, in which tens
Of thousands Of national guardsmen
are interested, is now pending before
the house committee on military affairs.
It was introduced by Congressman
Pepper, of Iowa, who was formerly
member of the guard himself. One Of
the earnest champions Of the bill Is
Congressman Tilson of Connecticut, al
SO on the house committee on military
affairs, who has seen much national
guard service and who served in the
war with Spain as a second lieutenant
in the Sixth United States volunteer
infantry.
Chairman Hay, of the military affairs
committee, has not been specially in
ciined to support the bill but lately he
has made it plain he will not oppose
1t. The result is that the bill will
come out Of the committee in a short
time with a favorable report and will
pass the house before the session is
much further advanced.
House to Pass Bill.
The house will pass the bill in spite
Of the fact Secretary Stimson has as
sumed an attitude of opposition to It.
Recently, Secretary Stimson appeared
before the committee in regard to this
measure. He did not hesitate to take
the committee to task severely for the
legislation that has been put into the
army bill by the house. He charged.

idea in mind Of taking favorable ac-
ton on the federal pay bill.
stimson Opposes.
Secretary Stimson practically came
out in opposition to the federal pay bill.
passage of the federal pay bill for the
militia would be the reduction Of the
regular army and he was against such
reduction. Secretary Stimson came to
a sharp clash with the committee and
stirred up much feeling in the COM
mittee by some of, the observations he
made on the army bill.
The effect of the appearance of Sec
rotary Stimson has been to make the
friends Of the federal pay bill more in
sistent than ever that it be passed.
The only real question now about It
becoming law In the comparatively
near future is in the senate and the
sentiment for 1t there is strong.
An Interesting Phase.
One Of the interesting phases Of the
situation with respect to the federal
pay bill Is the support 1t is getting
from the south. This is due to the fact
that in recent years the national guard
is becoming strong and well-organ-
ICED in the south and there are many
signs Of quickening Of interest in
it there. This is natural enough in
view Of the love Of the military which
the south has always shown. 1t Is not
until recent years, however, that the
communities there have begun to be
prosperous and this has been followed
by the construction Of armories and
more liberal outlay Of money for
guard purposes.
