with the serious German situation. in

This country could have given aSsur-

would have respected that assurance.
But the opponents of the ship bill. al
though they were willing to vote to
have the government insure cargoes
and vessels owned by Americans were
unwilling that the government should
have ships of it's own to meet the situa-

Missourians Backing President.

Senator Reed had just come from Mis-
souri, The people there, he said, did
not expect the United States to get
into the war. and they had every.con-
fidence in President Wilson.
They are solidly behind the Presi-
dent in his handling of the European
situation" said Senator Reed. He add
ed that he hoped there would be no
extra session of Congress and that he
believed there would be none. He said
he doubted there would be any session
of the Senate in the fall to take up the
subject of a cloture rule.
There are things in this country
needed much more than cloture in TIE
Senate. said Mr. Reed. He added that
while he thought there should be some
rule which would prevent a small clique
of men from flibustering and holding
up public business, he was opposed to
any limitation of legitimate debate in
the Senate. The value of free debate
in the Senate, he said, had been exem-
plified many times. The fact that
senator was able to rise in the Senate
and hammer away in the interests of
valuable legislation from time to time,
he said, had forced favorable action
where otherwise there would have been
none.

No Faith in Peace Treaties.

Senator Reed is one of those who be-
lieve the United States should be put
into a position to defend itself
against attack by foreign nations. He
said he thought constructive legisla-
ton would be framed at the next ses-
sion of Congress which would give the
United States trained men capable of
fighting for their country. He does not
put faith in the so-called yeace treaties
negotiated by former Secretary of
State Bryan; in fact, he opposed those
treaties in the Senate as being made
quate to meet situations which might
arise.
Il am opposed to great standing
army in this country. such as those
which were maintained abroad" said
Senator Reed. But 1 believe that the
young men of this country should have
military training. which would enable
them to take part Immediately if this
country were drawn into a war
Senator Reed outlined a bill which
he has in mind to introduce at the
next session of Congress. He would
provide for the establishment of twelve
government schools in various parts
of the country, at which boys should
be admitted from fifteen to eighteen
years of age. At these schools the
students should be taught military tao
tics. drill. how to shoot, under the di-
rection of army officers. These schools
he would have open to the sons of
alike. the only requisite being that on
entering the schools the boys should
pass a physical examination and a
mental examination
