traorCiinary national defense now being
espoused by President Wilson
Politicians close to the president today
seemed confident that the presidential
program for the army and navy could be
put through congress despite the Bryan
position. but. nevertheless, the influential
men of the party look upon Mr.. Bryan's
statement as forecasting trouble and they
don't like the .outloog little bit.
It was learned today that Senator Ollie
James OF Kentucky, who Is one of Presi-

MANY FOREIGNERS
 IN ALLIED ARMIES
 FIGHTING GERMANS
Included Among Them Are $500 Americans with the
 French and British.

Borne, Switzerland, Oct. 2.-The al- lies have not only brought black, brown and yellow savages and half savages from Africa and Asia to fight against Germany, but they have also organized 'legions' of different for eign white nationalities for this pur- pose. In the French Foreign Legion, which was increased to 1S,000 men at the beginning of the war, there are some 2,600 Swiss and about 3,400 Germans.
 Of the Italian legion organized for France by the sons of Gen. Ricciottl Gar;baldi. nothing is left. This corps at one time numbered nearly 5000 men, but it was dissolved, as it gave considerable trouble to the French commanders Most of the Italian vol unteers were entirely without mill tary training and their lack of dis oipline made them almost valueless as fighters.
 The French army also has "Slav- ic Legion" This organization con- sists mostly of Poles who have lived in France and Belgium for years. A hundred of the Poles came from America and joined the French army because they could not reach Rus sia. This legion originally had about , 1000 men, but there are only 500 oi them left. About 5000 of the Poles were killed, wounded or captured III the battles around Soissons. The Scandinavian Legion" of the French consisted of 4.200 Danes, Swedes and NorW cgians, but it was practlcall! wiped out in the battle of Arras where in June it lost $500 men Tn one day. The Americans ill the French l army number about 1.500 and nearl! 2.OOO American volunteers are fight ing in the British ranks. The Eng l.sh army also contains a large mum her of Scandinavians but they have
 not been organized into separate f., ,rDS like in France.

VETS FIND WASHINGTON
 0F TODAY DIFFERENT
Vast Changes Wrought ill Capital Since Their Last Visit at End
 Of Civil War

Washington, Oct, 2.-Checking up the differences between the Washing ton of 1865 and the Washington Of 1915 occupied the veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic, who are winding up the greatest reunion they ever have held, today.<
 The old soldiers took their wives and children and, in many cases, their grandchildren about the streets of Washington pointing out old land- marks and explaining the great diff ference in the appearance today of various sites compared to the days of the civil war.
 There was no special program of any sort today. The old soldiers rambled about the city to suit their own fancy. Many of them went to Mount Vernon and more went to the National cemetery a. Arlington, Va, where they sought and found the graves of many comrades. The pub lie buildings were thronged with the veterans and their women folk'' all day and guides and Washingtonians were called upon to give information concerning points of interest.
 Since Wednesday, the day of the big review, the veterans have been going home. Those living near by and who have been to Washington often have nearly all, departed but many from the west are expected to stay a week. The great exodus will begin tonight and continue through cut tomorrow.
