PLURAL MARRIAGES BE
 CONTINUED IN PHILIPPINES

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.--If the ad- vice of Brig. Gen. Frank Mcintyre, chief of the Bureau of Insular affairs, is followed the paragraph prohibiting plural marriages in the Philippines will be eliminated from the pending bill to give the Filipinos greater de- gree of self-government.
 Speaking before the Senate Phil ippines committee recently he said polygamy was general among some of the Moros, the wealthy classes re- garding many wives as mark of high distinction, and the more wiyes,a e man possessed the higher honors they re- ceived. He believes that Christian influence will end the practice of polygamy eventually.

 AEROPLANE DEVELOPMENT

r WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-The Ma tional Advisory committee on aero nautics, in its report to congress, predicts that the ,airship has possi- bilities of which we barely dream. The board asks for an appropriation of $S5,000 to continue it's investiga- tions by the establishment of a lab oratary and a flying field to be locat- ed preferably in Washington.

EXCLUDE IRELAND
 FROM C0NSCR|P7|ON
 New Measure Place~ Age Limit At -.---,; Eighteen to forty-<)ne Ye&rS.1a--'' Applies to Single Men:

LONDON. Jan 6.--Premier As quith's conscription measure which threatened to disrupt the British cab inet and caused a number of the members to resign. has been modified so as to exempt Ireland from it's workings should the measure pass the British House of Commons.
 The fight against the measure is being organized by Sir John Simon, former secretary of state. who resign ed from the cabinet in order that he would be free to oppose Premier As quith's measure.
 The modified measure which is ap- plicable to England. Wales and Scot land. provides an age limit of from IS to Al years and applies to bache- lors, widowers without dependent children and single men.
 It Is believed that when the meas ure comes up in the British House of Commons that it will be defeated as the Irish vote is solid against it's pas sage. John Redmond, the Irish leader, has declared that the Irish members of the house will not vote to compel others to serve in the army to which they themselves object.

LONDON. Jan. 6.-Premier As quith has introduced bill in the British House of Commons to author ize the war department to draw upon the nation for one million men to form the new army which England will train for the Spring campaign.

 The result of the canvass made un- der the Lord Derby plan shows that there are more than eight million men of military age in the British Isles and Premier Asqutth is hopeful that the army can be raised without resorting to forced service.

MAGNATE SAYS WAR SOON END

 Must Soon Stop Fighting.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-Chairman Gary, of the United States Steel cor poration, in a public statement just issued, declares that the belligerent nations of Europe are starving for men and money and that the war will end much sooner than is generally expected.
 He declares that all of the Euro pean nations engaged in the war have exhausted their resources and that they will be unable to place new ar mics in the field for the spring cam paign. Germany is asserted to have drawn every available man into ser vice and is bankrupt 50 far as raising a new army is concerned.
 The failure of the Anglo-French bonds to find purchasers among the American bankers was bitter disap- pointment to the European govern ments, and the heavy shipments of gold to America necessary to main- tain their credits here. is rapidly draining the countries.
 The statement of the head of the great steel trust is issued as a warn. ing against speculation in the stocks of munition companies and industries whose existence depends upon the continuance of the war.

AMERICA COULD RAISE BIG ARMY
Men of Military Age to Draw Upon in Case of Need.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Jan. G. The annual report of Secretary Gar rison to the president shows that the United States has seventeen million men of soldier age from which to draw upon in case this country should become involved in war.
 Secretary Garrison pays scant cour- tesy to those who would have no in- crease of the country's preparedness and declares that the American peo- pie must view their responsibilities and measure up to them.
 The report takes up in detail the plan of military preparation endors- ed by President Wilson and declares the Swiss and Australian systems are founded on governmental institutions and powers differing so radically from those in the United States that any at tempt to adapt either of them to American use would mean great delay.
 After treating exhaustively upon the subject of preparedness the sec retary says the time has come when America must have a trained force of sufficient strength, advisedly one half million men who would instant ly respond to call in the event of war or the influence of war.
