RURAL CREDITS BILL PASSED
AMENDMENT TO AGRICULTURAL
BILL SECURED BY COUP.
North Dakota Senator Turns Demo.
cratic Administration Wrong
Side Out by Alertness.

Washington, March 1.-Senator Por.
ter j. McCumber of North Dakota has
summarized the Democratic admins.
tration forces in senate and house.
BY securing the passage of an
amendment to the agricultural appro.
priation bill, providing for rural cred.
its, the North Dakota senator turned
the Democratic administration pro-
gram wrong side out.
There were angry mutterings in the
house and senate, threats of an extra
session, of a presidential veto of the
entire agricultural bill, and other
measures of retaliatory character.
The situation is complicated by the
apparent Inconsistency of Democratic
record and Democratic protestations
on the subject.
To add to the embarrassment of the
administration, Representative Buck
ley of Ohio, Democrat, proposed to
amend the senate rider by attaching
to it the provisions of the Buckley
Hollis bill, a measure which embodies
the principle of government aid, a
principal that is disapproved by Mr..
Wilson.
All of this was brought about by
the alert action of the North Dakota
senator, who has apparently been
watching his chance. Most of the
Democratic senators accepted dinner
invitations and those that remained
during the consideration of the agri
cultural appropriation bill were appar
emily asleep. For when Senator Nc.
Cumber offered his amendment to the
agricultural bill for the establishment
of farm credit bureau in the depart.
ment of agriculture to grant loans or
land mortgages and providing fund
of $10,000,000 for the purpose, no one
objected and there was not even 9
record vote.

Plan Is Endorsed by Major General
Wood and Former President Roose-
velt-First Reserve Of Between
100000 and 100000 Ready
for Emergency.

New York, March 2.-Formal an
nouncement has been made here of
the formation of an organization of
first reserves to be known as the

former members of the army, navy
and militia, which will better insure
the nations preparedness in case of
war.
Captain Gordon Johnston, aide de
camp to Major General Leonard Wood,
commanding the department of the
east, made the announcement on be-
half of a group of army and navy
men who, in an unofficial capacity,
are acting with civilians in promot-
ing the movement. Captain Johnston
said it is planned to establish within
a short time a first reserve of be-
tween 100000 and 100000 former army
and navy militiamen for instant call
in case of emergency.
General Wood Endorses Plan.
Major General Wood already has
given the plan his unofficial indorse-
ment and former President Roosevelt
has written a letter approving the pro-
posal. Other public men have in
dorsed the project and a statement
by the promoters says that former sec.
retaries of war and of the navy have
indicated their willingness to act in
an advisory capacity.

will become members of the legion,
Colonel Roosevelt in a letter to the
organizers says that in the event OF
war he intends to ask Congress for
permission to raise division of cav.

follows:
II and my four sons gladly will be-
come members. I very earnestly hope
and pray that there will be no war;
but the surest way to avert war is to
be prepared for it, and the only way
to avert disaster and disgrace in wal
is by preparation. both military and
naval, in advance"

many and Austria, officials are unable
to express any opinion upon this lat

From the brief press reports of
Great Britain's plans it was thought
in official quarters that blockade

prospect, likely to involve many com.
plicated questions of law.
international Law Involved.
1t was pointed out that no ques-
ton has been the subject of moro
controversy in international law than
that of blockade, and officials said un-
til the text of Britain's declaration
was received and carefully examined,
1t would not be possible to say wheth-
ed the United States would recognize
it as binding with regard to Ameri-
can vessels.
The proposed declaration by the al
lies created widespread interest among
diplomats. Some of the foreign en-
voys from neutral countries were par.
ticularly interested in the intimation
that Great Britain did not intend to
maintain a blockade Of the German
coast, but would hold herself at liberty
to stop all shipping, no matter where
encountered on the high seas, If bound
to or from Germany.
Blockade by England.
There is no exact precedent for
such policy, but it was considered
likely in diplomatic circles that dis
cussion as to its validity would be
based on the theory that a blockade
was being attempted. International
law has several rules as to the main
tenance of a naval and commercial
blockade, many of which have been
incorporated in convention ratified by
the present belligerents as we'll as
treaties between the United States and
some of the European powers.
