GRAVITY OF ENTIRE SITUATION IS GREAT
IContinuad from nage U


 in retaliation for Great Britain's food blockade, his country would attempt to use the submersibles in accordance with international law. He added that in any case, where instructions to submarine commanders were violated, reparation would be made in accord ance with the assurances given in the Arabic, Lusitania and other cases. Secretary Lansing told the, ambassa- dor he would see him again in few days.
 i When the ambassador learned of ar engagements for tomorrow's joint ses- sion of Congress. he apparently was as much surprised as the remainder of officials.
 1 Optimistic throughout, even when the diplomatic negotiations seemed in tight corners, and the much discussed break appeared to be imminent, the German ambassador remained un- 1 shaken tonight that friendly relations between his country and the United States would continue. He expresses his opinion that everything would come out all. right, in the end.
 Administration officials reflected ! President Wilson's determination to have an ending to diplomatic negotia- tions which they feel have brought only promises which have been unful filled and assurances which have turned out to be of disputed meaning.
 ,sr-I, ,. Presidents address to Congress will be a recital of lawless acts continuing over a long period despite pledges and assurances. It was pointed out that it is entirely within the range possibilities that the President will announce to Congress that he has de- | cided to break off relations with Ger many or declare that the last word of protest has been said and that there can be but one answer to continued disregard of the lives and rights of neutrals at sea
 The repeated declaration that the President would lay the entire situa- ton before Congress before breaking relations was pointed to in spite of the belief that after presenting the case to Congress, a communication will be sent solemnly warning Ger many that more violations of her pledges can have only one result
 It is. likewise possible that contrary to custom than an ambassador might be handed his passports before his government has an opportunity to make answer to a final demand.
 Upon the action of evidence, Presi- dent Wilson and the cabinet have come to the conclusion that there is abundant evidence that Germany is violating her promises and upon that the President is prepared to outline his action to Congress tomorrow. The next step will be disclosed only by the President himself. when he speaks.

AND RESERVE
 FORCE IS MILLION MEN

 10 save the volunteer army provision. ] Champions of the national guard 1 fought it bitterly in the committee of
 the whole and it was retained by a
 vote of 34 to 32. Tonight Senator i Lewis again moved to strike out the section. IL was saved this time by
 vote of 40 to 37.
 i An important provision of the Sen ! ate bill not in the House measure i include the following:
 1 Appropriation of S15,000.000 for con struction of government plants for the | production of nitrates to he used in | the manufacture of ammunition.
 A provision for vocational education , of enlisted men of the regular army, icompelling instruction either in aeri- culture rthe mechanical arts. ' Creation of a national guard section
 in the general staff of the army and requiring all officers and enlisted men
 of the national guard 10 subscribe to an oath to support the United States as well as the respective states. Provision for federal pay of all na- tional guard officers above the rank | of captain.
 | Because of the radical differences in it, it is expected new army meas ure will be gin within few days. One | feature fthe Senate bill that even it's champions fear may be sacrificed in the legislative committee promise, is the volunteer army resolution re- serve force. In that event. they con fidently expect the school reserve will be retained as a substitute. An amendment adopted today would create a reserve regular army force in time of war be composed of school and college youths. to provide a means of recruiting the proposed volunteer army force. The proposal submitted by Senator Hardwick, was agreed to 56 to "A, the result coming as a sur prise to senators on both sides. since predictions openly have been made that the volunteer feature would be reflected in conference.
 The Hardwick amendment provides for military mstructica by regular army officers under the direction of the secretary of war in every school and college in the United States hay ing an hundred or more male students over fifteen years of age when the authorities of such schools apply for such instruction and the requisite number of students agree to accept the training and 10 become part of the re reserve force of the nation. Applica- 1 ton for training would be purely vol untary, but all students over Is years of age would be subject to call to the colOrs by the President in time of war or threatened war during i their training term.
 The Senate also agreed upon an amendment reducing the proposed term of enlistment in the regular army from seven to five years and the
 proposed term with the colors from { four to two. thus giving each enlisted man three years in the regular re- serve.
 Senator Cummins' amendment to in- crease the number of officers in the 1 ordnance department to 126 was voted down
 ! Upon a motion of Senator Thomas an amendment was adopted making | it criminal offense for civilians with I certain exceptions to wear an army i uniform, and another amendment was
 adopted requiring adjutant-generals of the national guard to be residents of
 the state rterritOry for which they were appointed.
