WILSON WILL VETO
 IMMIGRATION BILL
Officially Stated That President Is Opposed To Literaey Test
 May Pass Over Veto.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 27.-It is au thoritatively stated that President Wilson will veto the immigration bill recently passed by congress because it provides for literacy test for all immigrants and those who cannot read and write some language are to be barred from entrance into the United States.
 An effort will be made by members of congress to pass the bill over the veto of the president. It is predict ed by some that the bill will be made a law in spite of the opposi- tion of the president. but his friends insist that the bill will not be push ed by Democratic leaders if the pres ident vetoes 1t.
 Congress has twice passed the i'm migration bill with literacy test, but former President Taft vetoed the bill a few days before his term expired and the fight was then renewed by the friends of the literacy clause to push it through congress again.

 The South Carolina senator insists that it would be better to wait for another year until the close of the European war when the knowledge gained as a result of the observations of the different ships of the belliger- ents under war conditions will dem onstrate the relative value to be plac- ed upon each type of vessel.
 It is expected, however, that con- gross will appropriate the money for the two dreadnoughts asked for by Secretary of the Navy Daniels and for the cruisers and submarines.

The head of the Navy Department insists that the forced retirement of men who have by years of training become eff cient just to allow for junior officers to receive a high rank and big re- tired pay is not good for the navy nor the taxpayers.
 Secretary Daniels would provide promotion examinations allowing the men to work up as they pass sue cessfully the different examinations for each grade, compelling them to continue to study from the time they leave the academy until they retire, allowing them only such promotion as they merit and retaining the officers in the service as long as they are fit for service.

ILLINOIS HOUSE
 |S DEADL0CKED Prohibition Is Cause of the Trouble and Republicans Cannot Elect

SPRINGFIELD, H., Jan. 27.-The House of Representatives of the state legislature has been deadlocked for four weeks over the election of a speaker of the house. The fight in the Republican party, which controls the house, is over the election of speaker from among the "wets" or the "drys" as prohibition is the cause Of the trouble.
 The house has not been organized because of the trouble and the in- ability of the Republican leaders to come to an agreement. Efforts have been made by business men to have the trouble settled by the selection of some neutral members of the house affiliated with the Republicans. The Republican leaders fear that as a re- suit of the long drawn out fight the party will lose the support of the people of the state.

PARIS, Jan. 27-The Germans lost heavily in the charges made today in an effort to win for the kaiser a birth day present, as today is his birthday. A series of eight charges were made along the French line from Noyon to St. Mihiel. The dead were left n huge heaps. Thousands of men died in the effort to break the line for the kaiser, who was at the front to inspire his troops by his presence. The only gains by the enemy were made at Craonne, where the French line broke and before the reserves could be brought into action several trenches were lost. These, however, will be retaken in a few hours before the Germans have an opportunity to build entanglements.

 US. JOB BUREAU oraanized Labor and Manufactur- CTS May Protest Adoption of
 Wilson Plan.

WASHINGTON, JaE. 27.-The gov ernment national employment bureau to be opened soon by the Department of Labor will meet serious opposi- tion from organized labor and may incur also the hostility of the manu- facturer.
 Labor leaders fear that the bureau may be used by the manufacturing employer as an agency through which employees may be obtained to crush strikes ordered by organized labor to enforce demands for higher wages and better labor conditions.
 Heads of large industrial plants see in national employment agency un- der government auspices danger of such distribution of labor as to lessen labor competitive conditions and lead thereby to advances in wages.

Powderly, chief of the division of information, worked out five years ago the scheme of send HIS IAo JOUAcoo AAoA Io IiAo AAduACoS job" to be made effective next week by Commissioner General of 1mmi- grafton Caminetti.

 MT. Caminetti and Secretary of La /bor Wilson hope that it may be ac- cepted now because of the strong in- dorsement given the plan by Presi- dent Wilson. They think, also. that in a few months they will be able to convince those who now oppose the plan that the new bureau will not interfere with conditions of organ ized labor or with the crowded in- dustrial centers.
